As the water reached the top, Steve took another glance at Ruby. Ruby pursed her lips, staring intently at Steve, and spoke softly, "Steve, do you want us to have a child now?"
Ever since he received Ruby's call, Steve had been wondering what she wanted to talk to him about.
In the past, he could usually guess some of her thoughts, but this time, he never expected that she would actually bring up the topic of having a child.
Steve's hand, which was holding the glass, stiffened for a moment, and his movement seemed to freeze.
In his mind, he quickly recalled what Edric Reat had said to Ruby at the cafe earlier that afternoon.
"When I see that you have a child, my dream will be complete, and I'll give up on you entirely, pursuing my own happiness."
"If you really feel guilty, then have a child sooner and let me escape from the suffering you've caused me."
After Edric left, Ruby had grieved alone at the table for a while before snapping out of it.
