Rose shelby. The youngest shelby. She is the pride and joy of their fucked up family.
This book is one shots of rose and the brothers. She will be the same age (5) up until the chapter "becoming a woman" . Not following the whole story line as I ca...
We were all around pollys for tea. As usual, John's kids were being their usual hilarious pain in the arse selves. Since they are my nieces and nephews, when they miss behave like this, i find it entertaining. John on the other hand, does not. Esme had gone away with the Lees for the weekend so he is left to fend by himself and it really is a sight to watch. The other day we were in the pub til 12 and as we walked back, we saw his kids running around with the dogs. All of them, just running like headless chickens until they saw John and all froze. We could see them all trying to hold in their laughter as John told them to get inside.
As we ate, we were interrupted by a knock on the door. Poll went to go and answer with a grumble about her dinner being interrupted. We carried on eating assuming that it was just someone selling something. Pol came into the kitchen and looked at arthur
"Arthur, there is a lady at the door. Says she wants to speak you ya" she said as she sat down and continued to eat. Arthur left the room and was gone for 20 minutes before he came back
"Where the fuck you been? Did ya fuck the bird or something?" John said earning him a clip round the ear by pol. I chuckled at his daughter Katie laughing when her father was scolded.
"No. Erm...this is kind of hard to explain." The room went silent and any sound that was once there before had disappeared. All eyes landed on Arthur as we waiting impatiently for him to continue
"The woman at the door, she was a social worker. Says we have a sister down in London. Dad's daughter." Mouths hung open and forks were dropped with no attempt to pick them up at his words. At the silence, Arthur began to speak again
"She wanted to speak to me because I'm the oldest brother. And as he does, dad has left her. She's at an orphanage in London since her mum was arrested 1 month ago. They want me to go down London and bring her back here to raise her." I finally had the power to talk
"And what did you say?"
"I said I would look after her. Raise her. I know nothing about kids. But I'm her brother. We can't leave her. And I'm not her father. So I don't gotta act like it neither. Just give her a house, food, clothes, and treat her like a little sister" he replied. He was serious about this.
"Just how little is this little sister?" Finn asked.
"Turned 5 last week. Gave me a picture of her that they took on her birthday"

He handed finn the picture and we passed it round admiring our little sister.
"She's gorgeous. You did the right thing Arthur" polly stated. She was beautiful. And I would've cut Arthur if he turned that little angel away so he definitely did the right thing.
