“Will you always be with me, Rosie?” he said softly.

“Of course, Jon. We can always be together. Even if you take a wife and have a family in the future, I will still be there for you.” She thought. “I will always be with him as his sister. Although we are not related by blood, I think of him as my family.”

“Rosie, will you keep your word?”

“Mhm,” Rosalie answered.
