---- Chapter 4. Ruby looked guilty. She quickly hid behind Callum, mustered her courage, and said, "It was Callum who gave it to me!" "you're lying! This pendant was a gift from Dad and Mom when I was born. They got it from the church themselves! I've always kept it under my pillow. You stole it!" I stepped up and grabbed Ruby, but Callum suddenly slapped me across the face. "Moon, stop it! You're acting crazy!" He pointed at me with disgust. "Stop acting like a lunatic. Ruby is your sister. She would never steal your silly pendant. "And anyway, whatever Ruby wants, I give her. She wouldn't need to steal anything from you. "T gave this pendant to Ruby." The slap made my ears ring, and for a moment, I ---- felt dizzy. Thad shown Callum that pendant before, so he knew how important it was to me. But he was lying to protect Ruby and even had the nerve to hit me. Our friends and family were gathering to watch the scene unfold. I felt more disappointed than angry. "Callum, you' ve lost all sense of right and wrong. You've just destroyed the last bit of trust I had in you." He had never seen me this determined. His hand froze in midair, and he instinctively wanted to apologize. But then Ruby cried. She took the pendant off her neck and held it out to me. "Moon, I'll give it to you. Please, don't fight with Callum." She looked at Callum with teary eyes. "Callum, if it makes Moon happy, I don't mind being the one who's wronged." ---- She pushed the pendant toward me, but as I reached for it, she let go. It dropped to the ground and shattered into pieces. "Ruby, you've crossed the line!" I was livid. I raised my hand to hit her, but Callum. stepped in and shoved me to the ground. "Moon, if you touch Ruby, I'll make you pay a thousand times over!" I fell to the ground and glared at Callum with eyes full of fury. He instinctively tried to help me up, but Ruby stopped him. "Callum, I'm still sick and haven't recovered. My head feels so dizzy." Ruby leaned on his shoulder, and tears rolled down her face. Callum immediately felt bad for her and quickly picked her up to take her to rest.
