...

Although her family had never been poor, Rosa was always aware of the less fortunate. Incidentally, she was aware of the more fortunate as well, although she never begrudged anyone anything. She had her lot in life, and she lived with it. Being friends with adventurous Kain and kindhearted Cecil made anything bearable, really, even though she hardly felt as though her life was a strain. Things change with age, of course, and Rosa realized somewhere down the line that her life would feel very empty without her boys at her side. On the flip side of the coin, she also knew that her life would be even better if the two of them would stop tiptoeing around each other, when anyone with a pulse could see the deep affection they shared.
