A nice day at the beach house... Or so it seems.

Doing the chores around the house had always been Pearl's favorite things to do to pass the time. All the recent things happening around Beach City hadn't been so bad, all the traumatic events had been coped with and everyone had moved along. Living, teaching and guiding Steven through all of these were easy as he was the one who had been able to move on first.

But day by day, she begins to wonder if she, they, would be no more use to him when he finally grows up to become the person they all want him to be. This question has been haunting her ever since the homeworld gems arrived, and with each privacy she gets, she will break down against her will to hold back the tears. What if Steven forgets them? What if he forgets her? All that they've done for him, all they've been through together, and all that's happened. She tried every way to contain her sadness, by saying to herself that the chances of that happening are likely but not possible, asking Garnet if that would ever happen and receiving the same comforting answer over and over again.

But today is different, an oddity that would soon be clear to everyone in the family. Steven and Amethyst left the house and headed in town while Garnet continued her search for Malachite deep under the ocean. Pearl, who stayed in the house, took the opportunity to let out the constantly resurfacing sadness. Her weeping was interrupted when she heard the door being knocked on.

Note: We're off to a new start here. And, probably gonna fix some things or two when I've got the time. But now, I'm tired.

Oh and one more thing, I really need your opinions on this one. I sucked at The newcomer because no feedbacks were given. Like seriously, check out the only two reviews, they're stupid.
