—Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
The alarm clock was beeping on the wooden table resting beside a large, fluffy queen-sized bed. A figure rested on it, a small face framed by crimson hair. Her light breathing filled the room with a pleasant harmony.
—Beep! Beep! Beep—
"Mmm..." she lightly mumbled, rolling her delicate body slightly. Her white, slim fingers with red nail polish slammed the alarm clock shut.
The morning light was barely filtering in through the curtains covering the window.
Rubbing her eyes, she struggled to open them. Her crimson pupils were breathtaking when the sunlight fell on them, displaying them like red rubies shining under golden light.
Maybe her eyes were the reason she was given the name Ruby. A name fitting for her. A name that identified her. It was a name given to her by her mother—or so she remembered.
