Rosalie, Edward's other sister, comes into the room and begins to tell Bella about her life before she became a vampire in order to show Bella that she should not be in a hurry to become a vampire. Rosalie says that she was alive in the 1930s and engaged to a very rich man. Rosalie aspired to marriage and a family, therefore she was very happy about her engagement. About a week before she was due to be married, Rosalie was walking home alone from a friend's house when she ran into her fiancé with a group of friends. The men raped and beat Rosalie, leaving her to die on the street. Carlisle found Rosalie and changed her into a vampire to save her life. Later Rosalie tracked down all the men who hurt her and killed them. Rosalie regrets never getting married and having children and suggests to Bella that she not be in such a hurry to give those things up.
