Romance Teens & Young Adult Friendship

Rosa McCoy was walking with her best friend Isaiah Collins they were both chatting peacefully until some dark shadowy figure came upon those innocent five-year olds.

“Hey rosa what did I tell you about walking out here alone.”

“But I’m not alone” rosa said in a sweet innocent voice.

Rosa and the dark shadowy figure which was really her older brother Theo continued talking and rosa older brother told Isaiah to go home as rosa and her brother Theo walked home rosa askes her brother what his girlfriend had made for dinner nothing she was not feeling well he replied to her question.

Rosa lived with her brother and his girlfriend because both their mother and father died In a car crash when rosa was just a newborn from that time on her brother had promised his parent with his heart and god that he would take care of rosa like she was not even his sister but his own kid but in the time of taking care of her he did ever wonder why did our parents die were they meant to die was I meant to take care of rosa or will rosa grow up to be successful just like mom all those questions still floated around in his head that is why he was so over protective over rosa just to make sure she gets what she needed and he kept his promise.

Rosa decided to go to bed without eating. The next morning rosa woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. She had jumped out of bed and got in the shower. She then brushed her teeth and changed into her school uniform. Rosa began climbing down the stairs. She was so excited to eat breakfast especially if Theo’s girlfriend made it. She made it downstairs and began eating. She had got done eating. She then headed to her bus stop to wait for the bus. When rosa made it to school she had sat at her desk and began working on the assignment on the board moments later Isaiah comes in to the class he sits down beside and whispers I’m going to be moving rosa he said what rosa yelled is there a problem rosa her teacher asked no ma’am rosa replied then lower your voice the teacher had said why are you moving rosa asked Isaiah well my mom thought it would be best if we moved closer to her university in Washington so we are packing today and tomorrow well probably be gone in three days rosa sighed with sadness ok if your mom insist you go I guess you could go. Will you remember me Isaiah asked yes of course why wouldn’t I she said Isaiah answering his question while asking one ok good because I will never ever forget you

It was 13 years since Isaiah was gone rosa birthday had just passed by she turned 18 she graduated high school and her brother was hoping to get into a college or a university to save some time since she had nothing else to do hey rosy petals come here Theo yelled across the house stop calling me rosy petals it annoying she replied while walking toward him what do you want she asked Theo well dang what with the attitude he asked what do you want she replied not answering his question what job do you plan on going to he asked rosa I want to be a movie producer she replied well the college I want you to go to doesn’t have that type of stuff in it so I’m thinking of sending you to Washington university is that ok he asked yes I guess she said answering his question. ok I already called, and they looked at your status and said that you were already eligible to go so what’s your plan are you going Theo said yes I will who’s paying for my stuff rosa replied I will who else will pay he asked her go ahead and pack up my fiancé is already packing some stuff up for you ok Theo told rosa when is your wedding Theo rosa asked curious if she was going to be there tomorrow he said wouldn’t want my little sister to fly off without seeing her older brother get married he added after rosa attended the wedding Theo gave her his number be sure to call me or text me whenever you can ok I love you rosy rosa then got into the plane and flew off.
