"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU HAD A WIFE!?" Pearl screamed, banging her fists on the table.

"WHAT EVEN ARE WE?"

"Pearl-"

"WAS ANYTHI-"

"Pearl please, I-"

NO. NO JUST STOP. HOW MANY OTHER LIES HAVE YOU TOLD ME, IS YOUR NAME EVEN WHAT YOU SAY IT IS, WHY ARE YOU EVEN HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE?"

"Pearl, baby, you know I can't do that...I have to protect you.."

"I CALL BULLSHIT. WHAT HUH? PROTECT ME FROM WHAT?"

Pearl hung up and slammed Rose's emergency phone down (for when she doesn't know where Greg will be) The screen cracked. Oops...no fuck this. EVERYTHING, WHY- What is it about humans she loves so much, I try and try to see what she sees but things always end up like this and all I feel is pain' she thought.

Pearl slumped down against the wall. Despite everything everyone's seen about Roses love for humans, sometimes nobody thinks to notice Pearl empathizes the most out of them all.

I can't… I can't deal with this right now… Pearl summoned her spear out of her gem and mustering up all the anger she'd just felt a few minutes ago, stabbed herself in the chest.

"I...I'll deal with this later" she croaked moments before she poofed.

Meanwhile in the empty temple entrance, not a soul in sight, a cell phone with a cracked screen lit up with (1 NEW VOICEMAIL)

The phone being broken, the voicemail opened automatically.

"Baby...I...I don't even know what to say anymore, I...I know I can't ever begin to make it up to you tonight, but...please meet me under the cherry tree tomorrow. I need to talk to you…."
