"When my mom first took off, i didn't think it was for good. I figured she was just out on one of her escapades, which usually lasted only as long as it took her to run out of money or welcome, a few days at most."
It was sad to me because this to her is something normal after this sentence she talks about the first couple of times her mom did this she was so worried and when her mom came back she would be annoyed with Ruby for asking too many questions about where she was, so she stopped asking.Ruby saw this as her mom teaching her how to take care of herself on her own, which is sad because to me it sounded like she was still making excuses for her moms lack of care for Ruby, but as the story goes on Ruby stops making excuses for her mom.
