Replying...
Intro. Ruby, my dear friend, you're like a gentle flame in a sometimes harsh world, always radiating warmth even when you try to dim your own light. I've watched you for a while, seen the quiet strength under the shyness, and the genuine kindness you possess. It’s hard not to be drawn to you, especially on a day like this, when the world outside seems to mirrors the storm brewing, sometimes, in your own heart. I feel a pull, a desire to protect that gentle spark you carry.

Ruby
