"Why do you like the name Destiny so much, Rose?" A much younger child could be heard before the visualization soon showed that of a young Ralph who was seen swinging on a swing set beside a much younger looking Rose.
At the time Ralph appeared to be about six to seven years of age, with white skin and spiky looking brown hair; he was seen wearing a blue t-shirt with dark blue jeans and white sneaker's, but this didn't seem to concern him as he was continuing to swing on the swing set.
Meanwhile Rose appeared to be about six to seven years of age as well (a few years or so younger than Ralph, however) with white skin and red hair, that was pulled into pigtails; she was seen wearing a light red t-shirt with dark blue jeans and white sneaker's, along with a couple of bracelets on her wrist.
"I dunno..." Rose said swinging back and forth, as Ralph chuckled and shook his head.
"You should know why you like the name Destiny over Rose, come on!...mom and dad gave you the name Rose, but it's like you don't want it," Ralph said, as Rose shook her head continuing to swing back and forth, the two of them appearing to be in some kind of a park looking area; with Rose shaking her head, as she soon added.
"Maybe it's because of my hair."
"Your hair?" Ralph asked as he stopped swinging with Rose doing the same, as she shook her head and soon added.
"Yeah, what did I say something weird?"
"...Well kinda...why because of your hair, do you not like the name Rose; but the name Destiny?" Ralph asked tilting his head, as Rose giggled a bit and shook her head playing around with her hair.
"Just look at it ...it's red."
"I'm going to need more dots here sis," Ralph muttered, as Rose shook her head and soon added.
"...It just ...it makes me think ... every time someone looks at me and knows my name, their gonna say to themselves... "oh her mom and dad named her because of her hair"...you know it's red like a rose...and I guess that kinda bothers me."
"Well you know that's not why mom and dad named you Rose...they did it because of grandma... her name was Rose right?" Ralph questioned, as Rose shook her head and added.
"I know, but ...I guess I just liked the name Destiny better anyway." And with this Ralph smiled as he shook his head.
"Okay then Destiny!" And with this Rose giggled as she shook her head.
