CHAPTER 2
Dear Connie:
I AM SO SORRY! I really am! Even if you don't believe me, I gave a lot of thought before I took this decision. It's not like an hour before leaving I said: OH, WELL! CONNIE IS NOT COMING!
Pearl actually suggested it was needed. As you said, you are my liege and you have been training to be it since we were kids. However, the truth is:
1. Your parents would totally kill me if you would go to a super dangerous mission out of space instead of college
2. This is a big deal. To be honest, even if I am optimistic, I know things might not go well. I hope I go back to Beach City but it's not something 100% sure
3. The Earth is not 100% safe neither. Gems are still going to go there and someone has to stop them. That's why you still can access my mother's sword (see? I didn't only instructed bad things to Lion)
4. I wouldn't be able to even stand the thought of you getting hurt
I know you are capable of doing great things so I guess I am the coward and selfish one. I want you to be safe even if I know you'll be very helpful here.
I am sorry again but I am glad you're not mad enough to stop talking to me. See? I am a bad person
I am losing a bit the track of time in the space but I am pretty sure you're leaving to college soon. Please tell me everything! Sounds exciting! I only know about college because movies.
Love, Steven
PS: Good thing about being lots of light years away from you? I don't have to be all awkward since you are making me say all those things face to face. Letters are so much easy!
PS 2: I know I said it in my infamous letter but would you give a look to my dad once in a while? Beside you, he's the only one I am sending letters through Lion but I am worried he feels lonely and all. Thank you so much
