One month Later -
Rosie and Luke have been living together permanently for almost two and a half months and her mother only called once the first month to see where her daughter is. Rosie told her that she's moving out completely and that they're to controlling for her to stay any longer, and that she's happy living with Luke and she explained to her mother that if she wants to go back to school after highschool she'll decide herself. In the meantime Rosie thought about how there year went by so fast and only another two more months to go. Chris has also stopped harrassing Cat and Rosie at school, and was re-emitted in to the hospital for unknown reasons. Cat had told Rosie and Luke about the orphanage and they agree to go visit sometime in the near future. Cat hopes to volunteer there someday.
That night Rosie and Luke had a pillow fight. "whack! got ya." she giggled as she almost ran over him. "hey, thats not fair." he said chasing her everywhere. " loser gets to give the other person a tickle session." he said wickedly. "ok, that means i must chase you. right?" then the next hour or so she completely avoided not getting attacked by a pillow. " ok, you win.." he said, after awhile. gasping for air. "yay. tickle time." she giggled, then ran to tickle him. They both fell asleep on the couch afterwards.
------
The next evening Luke watched the news and heard something disturbing. Rosie was outside hanging laundry. It was about a young man named Chris, and it seemed he escaped from the institution he was in. They warned others to be careful, since they don't know what he'll do. They said if someone hears or sees anything not right to tell someone or call them about it. They explained his history, that he had a twin sister who disappeared mysteriously with the boy's mother about 8 or 9 years ago. when they were about 9 or 10 yrs old. The news woman said the boy 'changed' when he never saw his sister again.He recorded it to show Rosie. Luke was a bit shocked at the picture of the young girl he saw and it looked a lot like someone he knows..
After she folded away the clothes Rosie asked why Luke looked like he saw a ghost. He showed her the tape she was shocked to, and told Luke thats the same boy who returned her painting. " yeah, Chris said he did it because he felt a connection to me. which didn't make sense." she said. " they did a research, saying that he had a twin sister. and their mother left with the girl for unknown reasons." continued luke. "and oddly the picture of the young girl when she 'left' was 9 or 10. looks like you." said Luke.
"thats really weird, i never heard my mother saying that i she left behind another child. that means my father is still alive??" said Rosie. " my mother said he died in an accident?" she said puzzled. " hmm, the news woman said the father was alive and living with the boy when his wife left." he turned of the t.v and kissed her, we should get to bed. and think about it later he said.carrying her in his arms.
------
The next day, Friday was a school holiday so she had time to call her mother. She told her mother about it and she felt sorry,but she felt it was the best thing to do considering how much she didn't like her husband and that he spoiled and treated the children not to kindly." it's ok, mom. i think it was the best thing, but now i have a brother. i'll visit him in the hospital when i have the chance. and talk to the doctor." she added. after talking to her mother, she decided to visit her brother. 'i'll ask Cat to come with me.' she thought.
After calling Cat. Rosie stopped by her apartment to pick Cat up, then they'll take the bus there." hi, so how are you?" asked Rosie. " i'm fine, so what you told me before. you found out that Chris is your long lost brother? kind of hard to imagine." she said, suprisingly. "yup, i have the directions to the hospital." said Rosie. "how did he end up there?" asked Cat. " But it seems after i left he lost himself and became depressed?" questioned Rosie. They got on the bus,silently till they got there.
------
When they got there, they asked about a young man named Chris and the nurse showed the way, to his room. Inside was a Lanky looking boy, with sorrowful eyes and unkept wavy black hair. "hi, guys." he said meekly. " i'm glad you came to visit, my dad..or i should say our dad, visits me once a week. Hope you will to." Said Chris. "i'll try to, if i don't get busy these days." said Rosie. "thanks, seeing you with your guy gave me hope i guess. do you think i'll find someone to?" he asked "of course, but we need you well first." She gave him a brotherly hug. They want to stay longer but need to get going. Since she has a date with Luke tonight, 6:pm, and there gonna watch a romantic movie. But first she needed to drop Cat of first.
------
Walking hand in hand in to the theatre Luke ask what movie she would like to see." hmm, how about a Action movie?" she asked. He nodded and they both chose King Arthur, action mixed with romance. " hope you don't fall asleep silly, or you'll miss the best parts." he said jokingly. she stuck out her tongue. For the next two hours or so they enjoyed the movie and had popcorn. Liked she thought she didn't fall asleep. "that was a lovely date." said luke, piggybacking her to the car. "yup, it was. so lets go home now." said Rosie, as they got in and drove of.
