Rowena could never get used to the ring of that word. Dying. She had gone to great lengths to ensure that the doctors treating Helena would not lose hope. Rowena had even turned to her grandparents and their church in her desperation. No matter how her insides churned at the thought of losing her baby sister, she could never let it show. Her lips curled into a wry grin. “Sal and I grew up in the same school system as you, I know what he knows — nothing. Oh — oh no. This is not Sal, this is all Godric. He and Sal share one brain cell between each other, you can’t go off their advice! Well, if you’re planning on being active, I suppose it’s time to talk to Dr. Tanner, he will be more than delighted to guide us through the talk.” There was nothing more awkward than sitting through the aging doctor stuttering through a lecture about the miracle of life.
“ okay whoa. no need to be doctor bland into this. one can only hear mr. full house talk about the inevitable doom, of losing your virginity that is, once and i rather hear about it in the next lifetime. especially since it’s way too late in this one. sorry sis, ” really, she needs to stop joking around like this --- it’s one thing to joke with godric about all of this, a whole other thing with her own sister, especially when she knows the jokes were just a facade over the true fears she has over the future she doesn’t have. “ damn. i was really hoping to get only sal in trouble for this. can you still yell at him anyways? for like zero reason other than for my entertainment? ” she was trying to move away from her poorly timed jokes and onto something more important, getting the boys in trouble with the scariest woman alive. “ but also, ro. if it’s true that you know nothing about like --- sex. you know, i can always give you the talk. ” and there she goes, talking again.
