Rose was 8 years old.
She was playing with her father as her mother was cooking their lunch.

Rose :: Dad, did you know that
Mrs Singh offered me Candy??

Dad :: Candy? Why? And who is she?

Mom :: Hey! Mrs Singh is Rose's maths teacher. How can you forget that?

Dad :: Ohh um sorry? So why did she offer my girl a candy?

Rose :: Cause I solved the math sum in one minute!

She said holding up one finger.
Her father grabbed her upto his lap tickling Rose.
Rose giggled.

Dad :: My intelligent daughter! Your gonna be the next genius, aren't you?

Rose :: Yesss!

She said running and waving her hands in the air.

Rose :: Mom! Dad said I'm gonna be the next genius!

She said hugging her mom's legs as she could only reach them.

Mom :: Rosy! I would have tripped.

Rose :: Sorry mom!

She said holding her ears.

She then picked her up to her waist as she kept cooking.
Rose understood it was an agreement for her apology.

Rose :: Mom, what are you cooking?

Mom :: Bacon and eggs.

Rose :: Dads favorite!

Mom :: Yes!

She said pinching the tip of Rose's nose.
Rose giggled.

The family was having their lunch.
Their family was known to be the happy one.
Her mother worked in a nursery and her father was the manager of a car company.

Rose :: Dad give me some upsieees!

She said referring to how her dad throws her into the air and catches her again.

Dad :: Not now Rosy. I should go.

Rose :: I will come too!

Dad :: It is office work, my dear. They didn't allow kids in such a harmful environment

Mom :: Yes!

Rose :: But I want to buy my birthday dress!

Mom :: We can buy it later, right? We can play cleaning up?

Rose loved cleaning her room.

Rose :: Ok.

Rose left to her room feeling a bit upset.
Rose's mom eyed her guiltily.
Both of her parents knew they can't afford such an expensive gown.

Dad :: Will she be fine?

Her mother nodded.

Mom :: I'll take care of it, don't worry.

Dad :: Ok.

Her father left to work.

Her mother went to Rose's room.

Mom :: Hi! My dear!

Rose :: Hi!

Mom :: I'm sorry, but dad has work and he won't be able to concentrate if you go with him.

Rose :: I understand.

Mom :: Yes! Thanks for understanding!

Rose :: It's ok mom.
