The next few days went past in a blink of an eye.

I spent the days Avoiding father and it was pretty easy since I spent my days in class and with grandfather. I had tried to play with my brother's but they were busy playing with Tia constantly saying since I was still a year younger than her I couldn't play I didn't understand but... but I don't care!

I huffed kicking a rock angrily "Rossetti?" A voice called I looked up shocked  "ah- Uncle Galahan uncle Laurel"

... there was a faint silence i usually didn't act like a child and I had just kicked a rock and thrown a small tantrum while walking which was very stupid of me but i hadn't guessed anyone would be in this part of the garden! No one ever comes here!

"I um..."

'Snap out if it Rossetti!' My thoughts screamed

"what brings uncles out here?" I smiled brightly they both smiled back "well I was just catching up with Galahan" uncle Laurel replied patting my head "what is Rosetti doing out here?"

"We'll I was angry at Gilliu and Mayron they won't let me play with them and Tia" I huffed "Won't let you play with them?" Uncle Galahan looked at me confused I nodded "they keep saying I'm to young but I'm not!" I crossed my arms grumbling under my breath "I'll be seven in summer"

Uncle Laurel laughed a wide grin spreading on his face "well then why don't you come with us what do you say Galahan we were planning on going shopping for a gift"

"If Sister is fine with that than sure" Uncle Galahan nodded "really you'll let me come!?" I asked looking at uncles with wide eyes "yea why not it's boring being cooped up here all the time plus it's a Saturday" Uncle Laurel shrugged.

A huge grin must have formed on my face because uncles were laughing "ok let's go" Uncle Galahan said as I followed along holding Uncle laurels hand maybe I should get a gift for mother or brothers... not father though  he probably won't like it.

The carriage ride was peaceful since I was aloud to sit on the window staring out into the bustling street "wow so many people why?" I asked sitting down properly

"well there's a special market sales going on today a lot of people must be in a rush to get the important stuff they need" Uncle Galahan explained I nodded "great that means I can get something for mum!"

"Yup we will be passing by a jewellery store It's me and Ronnece's anniversary soon so I'm looking to buy her something nice" Uncle Laurel explained

"I'm sure Aunt Ronnece will love anything you get for her!" I told him "what about Uncle Galahan why is he coming?"

Uncle Galahan smiled slightly "well I'm getting Tia a horse for her birthday so I hope to find a good one"

"a horse? Sister Tia would like a horse maybe...we don't talk much since brothers always drag her away before I can say hi" I shrug Uncle Galahan laughed at that "Tia seems to enjoy there company though".

We sat in silence- Well I did Uncles began to argue about what Auntie and Tia would like as a gift. The carriage came to a halt in front of a gem store as Uncle Laurel helped me down well picked me up and wouldn't put me down after that!

Only until after we entered the shop he put me down saying I could go look around. As an old man came up to me

"why hello there little lady can I help you?" He was rubbing his hands together and smiling brightly a bald spot sat on his head with white hair around the sides "um Im looking for Emeralds" I replied thinking "a necklace maybe"

"Oh emeralds are you talking about something like this"  he led me to a corner in the shop showing me a expensive looking necklace that came with a set if earrings they were made out of gold as emeralds sat in the middle. They  would look great on mother "yes! That's it how much?"

Uncle Laurel came over to see what I bought and nodded in agreement "that would suit your mother very well why don't you help us find something for Ronnece?"

I smiled widely "ok!"

We ended up getting and Amber hair pin with silver holding it together.

Uncle Galahan picked me up as we- well they walked down the smooth grey path "I'm not a kid" I huffed "I can walk!" Uncle smiled "yes but it's a long way to the stable."

The stables was busy and loud as uncle Galahan picked out the perfect foal and mother horse for Tia the carriage ride back was quite. "I can't wait to give this to mother!" I exclaimed as Uncle Laurel put me down "thank you Uncle's I had a lot of fun today!" I grinned.

Uncle Galahan smiled and nodded while Uncle Laurel patted my head "no worries anytime have fun Rossetti" I nodded turning around and running off I had to tell mum everything!

It was only the evening so mother might be in her room. I reached the slightly open door seeing father so I paused.

"Wow more gifts than that!" Tia exclaimed as Father talked about how he would get her something better on her next birthday.

"So what do you say Love why don't we have another daughter one that's just like Tia" Father chuckled holding mother by the waist "one that's not as childish as Rossetti"

I paused looking at the gift in my hand the rectangular black both with and emerald in the middle 'another daughter? A sister one that's just like Tia?' That would be exciting news to have a little sister but...

'But... what about me?' A small voice said 'why just like Tia is it bad that I'm not like her?'

"Yea mum! Another sister one that's like Tia!" Mayron jumped up from his spot "yea!" Gilliu agreed

"Honey not in front of the kids!" Mother had exclaimed.

But I didn't stick around to listen to anything more dropping the gift I ran down the hall towards the garden tears streaming down my cheeks.

Sitting next to the tree I cried 'what about me? Am I not good enough because I'm not like Tia!? Gilliu and Mayron won't play with me anymore because I'm not like Tia?'
