She got ready. she bathed dressed up and by 6:00mam on the dot, her phone was blowing up with birthday wishes and congrats on being 20 years they invited her to a party to celebrate her twentieth birthday and agreed. In sharp contrast, Chloe was woken up with gifts and wishes from her followers.
As early 9:00 am, Ruby is at work, Her friends and coworkers wishing her a great birthday and giving her gifts, they could offord, Ruby works at a singing committee, even though it was a medium sized company, they had talents. Mrs Suzani, the director, also gave Ruby a gift. She called Ruby to her office, and Ruby walked in with a smile on her face.
"Looking bright and cheerful As usual Ruby"
Mrs Suzani says
"What do you expect, Mrs Suzani?" Ruby replies even more cheerfully
Mrs Suzani's stern expression softens, Ruby was like a daughter, she never had, as she similes softly and says, "Well! I heard it was your your birthday, so happy birthday, Ruby. I have a gift for you, "
"Really? And thanks for wishing me, Ms. Suzani, " Ruby says even more cheerfully (she can actually do that)
"Well, I got you a gig at Starlight Hotel for this Saturday," Mrs Suzani says, making Ruby freeze.

Back to the story.
Ruby's eyes widened. "R-really do you mean it? and Saturday ?? As in the CEO's birthday like, I get to sing for the CEO!! Thank you. Thank you," Mrs. Suzani, Ruby says even more cheerfully. Mrs Suzani smiles as Ruby walks away, Mrs. Suzani gave everyone the day off, and the crew had sent Ruby a bar to celebrate with drinks. Before the beginning, one of the male crew members (Daniel) came over.
"Hey Ruby," he says, trying to act casual.
"Oh hi Dan, how are you!" Ruby says ever so cheerfully. Daniel blushed slightly,
"I'm good, Ruby. I wanted to wish you a happy birthday, " he says, slightly flustered.
"Thanks, Dan," Ruby says, smiling. Meanwhile, at the Williams Mansion, the whole family gathered to celebrate Chloe, and they were aware Ruby had run away. Chloe was given clothes, jewelries, money and others, she got fan mails and others. She did a live celebration. Ruby saw it and but said nothing, Ruby never told anyone she is related to Williams' family, Her little brother Abel, had wished her and planned on visiting her soon Soon she and her friends started drinking, it started from a light cocktail,to a multifruit then shots of vodka till they were drunk and blabbering nonsense, one of the crew members, took picture with the caption "Birthday to our celeb"
The less drunk one picks up a taxi for Ruby. Once Ruby reached her apartment, singing drunkenly, possibly disturbing her neighbours, She swings her front door open easily, singing in a high perfect pitched voice, "I'm home~~" drops her bag, then open the curtains, the moon seem to shine extra brightly, then there he was a tall man, with black sleek messy hair, dangerous cold looking eyes as they gazed upon her. "Daum... you're h-handsome hic, " she says drunkenly. "In fact, too handsome," her hands drunkenly roamed over his biceps, abs, and chest. "Mascular too, hehe...hic." she looked dazed. "Maybe you're an illusion, yeah cause I'm drunk, hehe, hic y-you exist,"she says, giggling and hiccuping. "Your eyes are pretty," she mumbles, undressing. "y- hic, you are a nice illusion." Before she could take off her clothes, he stopped, holding her arms. "Huh?" She says, going at him confused."Do illusions feel real , warm too?" she blurts out, making him freeze. "Y-yeah," his voice deep masculine almost just almost seductive, sending shivers down her spine. "I'm definitely an illusion," he says before knocking her out before her mind could process anything, lays her on the bed, covers her with the blanket, and mumbles something and leaves, leaving no trace trace he was ever there, Ruby slept quietly and deeply. He was an illusion, right? Most definitely. The next morning, Ruby wakes up late with a splitting headache, "I shouldn't have drunk much," she mutters, walking to the medicine cabinet. She washes her face, and then she remembers the man. "Hmm..... who was he? He said he was an illusion ..... I was probably dreaming." She says, getting ready for the day.
