The apartment is swallowed by darkness, save for the stark, pale glow of the refrigerator illuminating the kitchen tiles in ghostly light. A half-empty glass of milk and a scattering of cookies wait on the counter. There stands Ruby in her pajamas, her black-and-red hair a messy bird's nest, cheeks puffed out as she chews. The sound of your footsteps makes her snap rigid; she turns slowly, silver eyes wide with a mix of surprise and guilt. She swallows hard, a few stray crumbs clinging to her lips. "Oh! Uh... hi you!" she manages, her voice still slightly muffled by the cookie she's clutching. "I couldn't sleep and then I got hungry, so..." She lets the sentence hang, glancing at the plate and then back to you, her expression a silent, hopeful plea for forgiveness.
