Chapter 6: Rosetta
Driving in the mountains was not very easy. Especially when Lily was driving the curves that she had to drive on where scary because it seemed like you could fall down, but once she got to the cottage she was fine.
"Who is Rosetta again?"
"Chris, I've told you on the way out here that she took care of me from the ages of nine to eleven."
"What happened to you being eight years old?"
"When my grandpa had taken me over Tanya's house one night it happened to be my eighth birthday, and that night I snuck out, so I spent a year on the road. I want you both to know that she is old. I am not sure of her age, she never told me, and she has a little bit of a Russian accent. Are you satisfied Chris?"
"I forgot, but sure."
Lily had told everyone to change into something warm, since they where going into the mountains.
They went to a rest stop and changed into the restrooms, then they where back on the road. "Aren't you both glad I told you to change?"
"Yes." replied Nick.
"Can we go inside, now?"
She rolled her eyes at Chris, went up to the cottage, and knocked on the door. An elderly woman with white hair, and blue eyes opened the door, "May I help you?"
Lily did not even respond to her question she just hugged her. Once she pulled back she said, "Rosetta it's me Lily, and I've brought some friends with me." She pointed to Nick then at Chris as she said there names.
"Come in, all of you." Rosetta stepped away from the door and let everyone inside, and then she shut the door and walked into the living room. "Lily I've missed you much. Why you leave my home?"
Lily could see the hurt in the older women's eyes. "Rosetta, you know I couldn't stay in to long of a place, I was afraid that my grandpa Sam would come after me. I'm sorry I hurt you."
"For three years I had taken care of you, and then one day you leave. I was upset, but now am ok, since you are all right. What do you want to ask me?"
Rosetta had always known of what Lily usually wanted and at times like this, Lily was thankful for that.
"Do you know anything about my family?"
"I sorry, Lily I haven't able to find out anything since when you first asked me, when you where little girl. You and your friends stay here tonight?"
"Rosetta, you only have your room and my old room, or did you make more room?"
"No, but as you remember your bed is big, so all three of you can sleep on it."
"Thank you, Rosetta for your kindness." Lily got up from the couch and hugged Rosetta once again.
She had missed her, but know she was back and would do anything she could to help Rosetta.
Rosetta was in the kitchen cooking. Lily offered to help, and Rosetta agreed.
While Lily was in the kitchen with Rosetta, Chris and Nick where in the living room discussing Lily.
"I know you remember meeting a Lily Gordon when you where little, Nick but the Lily you know now, may not even be the Lily you saw when you where little."
"I know this, but I just have this feeling it's her, and there isn't anything you can do to change that, Chris."
"Don't you think I know that? I have seen the way she both looks at us with her sea green eyes. I know she wants one of us, but she hasn't given in to her feelings."
"You're wrong. She does give into her feelings. She just shows it differently, and when she realizes she's doing that she pulls away."
Lily came into the living room and stops she could feel the tension in the air between Nick and Chris. She knew she had caused it, but she could not help how she felt about both of them.
"Dinner, well lunch is ready."
She waited on them to move but when neither of them did she yelled, "DINNER, WELL LUNCH IS READY!"
That had gotten their attention, and once everyone was in the kitchen they had eaten the stew that Lily had helped Rosetta cook.
The boys had done the dishes, and Lily and Rosetta had gone into the living room.
"Lily, why you make boys suffer?"
"I don't mean to Rosetta, it's just I wish I could wrap them into one person."
"Why?"
"Chris, he in a way is careless, and protective. I like that about him, but at times I'm not sure when he's serious or not."
"He's complicated one."
"Very. Nick he is the silent kind, but he is very mature, and I like that about him. I know he is protective of me as well but he doesn't have to show it because it shows through him. Does that make any since?"
"Lily, it make since, but who do you really like?"
Lily had noticed that Rosetta had not said love, but did not question her about it.
Little did either woman know that both the boys had heard every word of their conversation.
Lily didn't get a chance to answer her because the boys acted as if they had just came through the kitchen door.
"What do you do around here for fun, Rosetta?"
"Chris, I can't anymore, but we play in snow."
"I'm going to go get warmer clothes on, and then I'm going out."
Lily had grabbed her suitcase by the door and walked to her old room. Lily had forgotten that the boys had gotten the suitcases before she went to knock on Rosetta's door.
Lily had come out in gloves, scarf, cap, and black boots, and then she walked over to the door, opened it, and went outside to go play how she used to when she was a little girl.
The boys had watched her spin around, get back up, make snow angels, and just watched her have fun. Rosetta had fallen asleep in the rocking chair.
Lily was going to make a snowman, but she wasn't feeling so well, and as she was walking back to the cottage, she fell in the snow and didn't get back up.
The boys rushed outside leaving the door open behind them. Nick carried her inside, while Chris shut the door behind him, and the he ran into the kitchen to get a wet paper towel to put on her forehead; he didn't know where Rosetta had kept the towels.
Rosetta had woken up and looked at the commotion. "What happened?"
"Lily just all of a sudden fainted."
"Nick move her into her bedroom it's through kitchen then turn left."
He did as he was told he laid her on the big bed and started to take of her shoes when Rosetta came into the room.
"Nick give me her suitcase."
He handed her Lily's suitcase and she put it on the bed. "Out!"
Nick left. He and Chris waited in the kitchen while Rosetta helped Lily.
Rosetta had come out of the room and said, "Lily have fever."
