"I'm Rose Quartz, your foster mom." Rose remained where she was standing,looking at the child in fear.

"Oh god, I hope I didn't scare her off" Rose frankly thought. After a few agonizing moments have gone by, Rose made important decision.

"Pearl," Rose begin."I guess I came onl a little to strong and I sincerely apologize. All I want to do is get to know you better. If your not comfortable with that then you can ask me questions till you are ready. Ok."

Pearl nodded in agreement but she wasn't quite ready for the new adjustment of living in a new home, with new parnets and siblings.

"What if my foster parents will ended just like my father? What if my dad will come back and blame me for turning him in and beat me as punishment?" Pearl was thinking in the back of her mind. She started crying and shaking lightly.

"Pearl"? Rose rose from her seat and came closer to the bed. Pearl didn't respond. It seems like the shaking is getting worse.

Rose sat on her bed and wrapped her arms around the scared girl in an effort of comforting Pearl.

"Pearl, whatever happened in the past is over. We're in the Present. The person who is at fault is long gone and I give you my promise that no one's ever gonna hurt you again. Not the person who's responsible or nobody else. That I promise". Rose has repeated her phase a few more times till she notice that Pearl feel asleep. She gently laid her back on the bed, pulled the covers up on the poor girl and made her leave. Rose left Pearl's room and ran into a nurse.

"Excuse me", Rose begin "Do you know for sure when Pearl Omuni is going to be discharge?"

"I'm her nurse, My name is Paula. According to her doctor she should be dicharged somtime in the afternoon."

"Thank you" Rose walked away and begin making her journey to her car to head home and get some rest tomorrow is a big day.

When Rose finally made it home, she glanced radio time which read a quarter to 8. She looked out the sun set and admired it's beauty. Rose loves how the sun leaves behind colors highlighting the sky. You can say when it comes to nature, Rose loves enjoys everything the Earth has to offer. After taking a few minutes to herself, Rose went inside her house to see what her kids were up too. She got inside the house. Rose was happy to see her kids getting along.

"Hello you guys."

"Hey" the kids said in unison.

"So is it true?" Amethyst ask. Another kid is coming to live here?"

"Yes Amy, Its true. I was hoping that I would be the one to share this news with the rest of yall".

"Well what she like," Amethyst ask.

"I don't really know, I just barely meet the poor girl."

"So what's her name," steven said.

Rose starting chuckling she loves ger son curiosity. "Her name is Pearl, and y'all will meet her tomorrow."

"Like we need another c-"

"Jasper.'"

Jasper looked up at Rose. "What?" I was going to say loser."Jasper said while attempting to do the innocent look

"Uh huh" Rose didn't believe her.

"What if she's another one like tells lies the damn time. She's like a the boy who cry even looks like on to".

Jasper earn laughs from her siblings.

'Everyone listen to me' Rose stood up from her seat and begin speaking. "No one has the right to judge anyone; not even Pearl. From what I've been told, She hasn't had the best life. Some of you know exactly what I am talking about. So when she come home with us tomorrow, I want everyone to be nice to asking questions about her past. Remember she's family now starting tomorrow. Understand?"

The kids simply nodded and turn there attention back to the had no right to judge Pearl, since all of them had a similar past.

"DAD PLEASE! NOT AGAIN! HAVE MECRY!

SMACK

Pearl landed on the kitchen floor holding her stinging cheek. Crying from the pain.

Her father stood behind her, with an evil smirk plasterd upon his face reach down and grabbed his daughter by the back of her neck and slammed her again the wall repeatedly. With each time more a goresome then last. After the last time he left her on the floor with bruises and blood soaking the ground up.

When her father finally came back, Pearl sense him standing right in front of her. She slowly but painfully lift up her head to face her father. Which earn her a kick in the face.

"PLE-PLEASE, F FATHER! N Nno Mm mor."Pearl couldn't finish due to the fact that she was tremendous amount of pain.

Her father kneeled down to were his daughter is laying helplessly on the floor begging for mercy. He was able to conceal his murder weapon till now. He raise his 8inch blade in the air, brought it down with force with a huge grin on his face.

AHAHAHAAHAH

Pearl jolted awake dripping in cold sweat. She looked at all her surrounds only to discovered that she wasn't in the Hell whole she lived in for the past seven years. But in a cummy hoisptial, with a few rib cracked, a minor concussion, Broken hand, and her innocence stolen from her, Pearl knew for a fact that she isn't wanted. She was sure her new so called, Foster parent, would treat her the same way.

"Only 4:30." pearl said to herself.

Pearl started holding herself and rock gently while tears cascade down her face.
