"IF I KNEW I WAS COMING WITH YOU GUYS TO BE HELD AT GUNPOINT-"Santana started in a whisper,"By an old woman and getting roped into making chili-I would've stayed home to get robbed!"she said in a whisper yell as she helped me grate the large block of cheese into the bowl.

"You think that's bad? try cutting onions?"Vero whispered to both of us and when we looked at her we saw her eyes red as they glossed over from cutting,"it's a nightmare."

"This night as been a damn nightmare."Santana mumbled.

"I heard that."Rose said sipping her wine.

Santana rolled her eyes and muttered how she'd rather be anywhere than here and Vero tried not to look straight into the onions. I sighed trying to rush grating the cheese but I couldn't rush it fast enough because it was huge.

"Take a brake babies, come here."Rose waved us to the other side of the counter,"you two trade."she pointed to Jamal and Draya who were next to her relaxing comfortably since she was talking to them about her high school days. They reluctantly got up and traded, so now they were grating and cutting onions.

"Would you girls like a drink?"she asked looking between us three as we were sitting down.

"Yes."Santana said with no hesitation and Rose waved her hand,"Go grab a glass."when she said that she got up to go grab one.

"I'll take one too."Vero spoke and Rose looked over on the other side of the counter,"Santana, baby grab Diverona one too."she called out to her and when she look at me I shook my head telling her no thank you on the drink.

Santana walked back over not even five minutes later and handed Vero a glass before sitting back in her spot. Rose started pouring the wine in their glasses and when she got to Tana since she was next to me her eyes met mine.

"Wait a minute....you look familiar."she squinted setting the bottle down and cocked her head,"your daddy-"her head slowly nodded,"is Lorenzo, Lorenzo Haughton."

"How do you-"

"Just a hunch, I figured seeing you but thought I was wacked because your cousin lives here....it's crazy seeing you after all these years it's like seeing your daddy that young all over again."she smiled softly at me.

"You knew my dad at this age?"

"Baby I've known your family for forever. I knew him since he was little and you since you were a baby."Rose hummed,"and your siblings too, I'm practically your auntie."
