89 Chapter 2: Winter, Rose Ross (2/2)

”What do you mean who, it's me.”

”it's you? I've never seen this number before.”

”I've had this number for a long time, Anthony, how could you not even remember your own sister's number.”

”Oh, it's Pig”

”Stop calling me that”

”Just tell me what you want.”

”Something Crazy just happened, some girl and her parents came here claiming she had your kid. It's nuts” said and a moment passes before Anthony talks again

”You're dead when I get home.”

”I'm not lying! It's true.”

”That's Anthony? Right? ”said Griffin entering the room and Anise handed him the phone.

”Anthony, come home. We need to talk.”

Returning home Rose quickly but silently goes up stairs to put Winter to bed. David sits happily on the couch like he had won the Olympics. Coney comes in from the kitchen and hands David a soft drink.

”We pulled that off quite nicely,” said David

”The mother seems tough” said Coney giving David a soft drink as he relaxes deeper on the couch.

”Griffin is the one who makes the decisions in the family. What he decides they have to follow” he takes a sip of his drink ”His son is in a coma and he rarely even sees his grandson. He won't pass up this chance to meet his great-grandson” Coney looks up to the room above

”We have taken Rose in for 4 years” This time it's David turn to look up at the ceiling. ”She knowns us. I'm sure she won't be that mad.”

Rose lays Winter down cuddled in a soft snuggly blanket beside her on the bed. Lightly touching his head and watching him sleep comfortably and silently.Rose eventually looks at her journal and she smiled excitingly.
