Being an adult made it infinitely harder to socialise and apart from her family and close knit circle of friends, Ruby didn’t spend a lot of time with others hence why she was on her own with no intentions to meet with anyone. The street was quiet thanks to the students having headed back to school that month which made spotting the pile of coins on the pavement much easier. If it had been one of her twin brothers (or her father in his youth) those coins would’ve been slipped straight into their pocket but Ruby was honest like her mother Trixie and she would try find their rightful owner first.

Seeing as Atticus’ music shop was nearest to her discovery it would make logical sense that the coins would belong to the man looking into the shop window. “Excuse me?” the thirty-four year old approached politely. “Do these belong to you?” she showed the coins in her hand. It might have only looked like loose change to the average person, especially to someone who was brought up in a beautiful seaside mansion in Cornwall and who could want for nothing but Ruby was not naive to the fact that to some people that loose change could be the difference between eating and not that day.

At first, Cal didn't realize that the woman was addressing him. He blinked and looked around and then realized she WAS talking to him, his eyes looking at the coins she was holding. "Oh, uh, no, not mine," he said with a small smile. If she'd asked his DAD, he would have 100% taken the money but Cal was honest. Plus, he didn't need any more money, so...

"Did you just find those on the ground?" he asked in interest. Not that he was accusing her or anything, that was just a lot of money for someone to lose. Perhaps they SHOULD be looking around for the rightful owner.
