Two days later…………..
Ruby found herself once again standing on her personal balcony just off from her room. Her estate was on a hill and her balcony looked down over the city and to the docks and ultimately the water. She wrapped her robe tightly around herself as she watched the setting sun. Ruby use to stand there when she was younger watching for her father's ship when he was expected to visit. Now she reluctantly found herself there again.
Two days earlier Commodore Cunningham had delivered her home to her mother was expectedly shocked and surprised to see her daughter home and in such a condition. Ruby could just imagine what she looked liked standing on the door step with Roger Cunningham, soaking wet, wearing his jacket and her dress stopping above her knees. At first she was rushed inside and placed in the care of her mother's maids since Mandeep and Sharma were still in Port Royal. The women fussed over Ruby until she was in her bed dry and warm, and then her mother started her assault of questions. From what Cunningham had told her Ruby had been thrown from a pirate ship, when he told her that her heart skipped a beat as she thought the worse but Ruby was still breathing. Ruby refused to answer any questions claiming she would talk when she felt like it.
Now she was alone again watching the reds, pinks and oranges dance over the waters of the bay. She had tried to keep her mind from thinking a certain thought every time she looked out over the water from her patio, but she just couldn't help it. Somewhere deep down inside, below the hate, the anger and disbelief, somewhere inside of her she believed that any second she'd see the distinctive black sails come into view. She hated thinking that and tried not to, she didn't want Jack back and the next time she wanted to see him take his last breath. But still despite her internal protests she had stood there the first night she was home and now and she was sure she would for nights to come.
"I hate you Sparrow," whispered Ruby before she turned and walked back into her room.
