Chapter Two: The Angel and a fight with a sibling

Howl just looked at the beautiful angel in front of him with that pink hair of hers. She was absolutely beautiful to him. Then as he stared at her she blushed which blended with her pink hair. Then he registered what she had said 'Thank you for saving my little sister and me.'

"That's your little sister?" he asked.

"Yes." She replied.

"But didn't she call you 'mommy'?" he was confused; she could tell he was confused, his crystal blue eyes showed it all.

"Well that's what we are basically when in public. Besides I've been taking care of her and my brother ever since your mother died." She said her head had fell so she was staring at the ground.

"Oh I'm so sorry bout your mother…I don't have parents…" Howl stated.

"Oh…that's terrible." Tiffany said looking back up at him her eyes now glossy with sadness.

"Its ok." he said running his hand threw his golden hair. Rosie looked at her sister, then at the man and giggled.

"So…um…where you going?"

"To my brothers shop." She replied.

"Ok well lets go." he said walking up to her; hooked his arm with hers and Rosie grabbed Tiffany's hand. Tiffany looked confusingly at the man. She didn't even know his name at all and he was assorting her to her brother shop.

When they got to the shop they said their goodbyes and Howl had mentioned that he would love to see her again. She just nodded and waved as he left into the crowd. She turned and entered the shop.

"WERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?" Andy snapped loudly at his older sister.

"I got held up and don't you use that town with me I'm still older then you and you have to listen to me." she snapped back.

"You're not our mother Tiffany so stop acting like it damn it." he snarled at her.

Tiffany stepped away from her brother, her eyes huge and upset. "WELL SORRY, NEXT TIME YOU NEED HELP DON'T COME RUNNING TO ME ANDREW!" Tiffany said crying.

She turned and ran out the door of the shop leaving Rosie with her brother. She pushed threw the crowded street, not watching were it was she was going she then found her way threw and came to a small dinner where her friend Beth worked and walked in rubbing her eyes dry.

"Tiff what's wrong?" Beth asked running up to her friend sense birth.

"Its nothing Beth, just got into another fight with my brother, he brought mom up again…" her voice cracked. "I try so hard to raise them the way mom wanted them raised and this is how he treats me, reminding me that I'm not mom, I already know that." She said crying again. Beth hugged her friend tightly. Just then the bell chimed signaling that someone had entered the dinner. Beth looked up and almost screamed in Tiffs ear.

"Beth what the hell what's wrong?" Tiff asked looking at her sister like friend. Beth looked horrified and pointed towards the door. Tiffany looked behind her to see Howl the one that had saved her. "Oh, hi…um…u never did tell me you name." Tiffany said.

"Don't talk to him Tiff he's a bad man." Tiffany looked at her friend and rolled her eyes.

"Well this "bad man" saved my live and my innocents thank you so I want to know his name and get to know him." Tiffany huffed.

"Your friend is right though, Tiffany, I'm not really a good person, my name is Howl Jenkins, A.K.A Horrible Howl." He said scratching the back of his head, looking down.

"You can't possibly think, I'll believe that your Horrible Howl, you saved me from getting raped in that ally way." Tiffany said confusingly. Just then Andrew came in pushed past Howl and stared at his sister.

"Tiff, you know I didn't mean it the way it came you, you know that right?" Andrew said.

"I don't know and I honestly don't care, you don't want me to take care of you then you can have Rosie and take care of her by your self because I quit, I quit trying to help you and I quit trying to raise you and Rosie the way mother would have wanted it." Tiffany said and once again stormed out past Howl who followed her.
