Narrator POV:
After explaining the situation to Sofia, the 3 were trying to find something they could do to help Adora but came up with very little
"Can't you get emancipated?" Sofia asked
"No...I mean I can but it takes far too long without proof of Abuse or extreme circumstances"
"Even with the whole...thing with your mom?" Catra asked, causing Glimmer to give Adora a questioning look
"I...m not sure..." she answered and stood up to get something out of Catras Room. Without another word she handed Glimmer the Letter she had kept hidden the whole time in hopes of forgetting that it existed "I'm still not even certain what this means in terms of Inheritance or what rights my aunt even has... I had no time to look into it"
Glimmer looked the letter over, her face turning more and more to horror before she stood up, handed Adora the letter and hugged her Friend "Im....so fucking sorry" Glimmer felt stupid to be jealous over loosing her when she was suffering far more than she had thought "if I had known I.."
"It's okay, Glim...I should have told you but I was scared to lose you. You and Bow are the reason I didn't go insane and I can't imagine that either of you could ever be replaced....you're family to me" she answered with a radiant smile
"I had no right to demand any of this from you...i'm sorry I was selfish and...scared that you would no longer need me...but, Adora this Letter...the way she wrote..."
"I know..." Adora answered, putting the folded up piece of Paper back into the envelope. In truth, the reveal of her Mother was hard enough to swallow without reading between the lines, lines that would led some to belive that Adoras conception didn't happen with two willing participants "Not like I have any proof but...fuck, please, at the very least let this be not the truth"
Without any proof and the knowledge that her Biological Mother was already in a suicidal state, Adora pushed the thought aside, willingly giving into her own ignorance in the matter and hugging her best friend in hopes she'd understand to drop any accusations or guesses
Catra didn't know what emotion she felt seeing them both like this. A feeling so similar to jealousy yet feeling more visceral and disgusting...just bad in every way. She knew how much Adora needed her yet found her so utterly annoying that part of her wished she'd be gone from her life "....I don't have the right to even think that..what's wrong with me?" wordless, she stood up and left the room
"Catra? Where are you going?" Adora asked as the hybrid reached the door to the Kitchen
"Taking a shit..." she lied, unsure about the real reason herself
"....tmi, dude"
"Then don't ask, stupid" she shouted from the small hallway
"What is up with her?" Adora wondered, confused by the sudden mood shift while the hybrid Mother could barely hold back her laughter. She understood her daughter better than anyone and was convinced that this had been the first time she ever shown genuine jealousy over a Girl
"Some emotions show you how truly ugly we can be and you're gonna learn this the hard way, Mija"
Not much more was talked about as they had hit a wall that could not be climbed without more time or Help. Sofia soon had to go to work and the other three were talking about wherever to do anything or call it a day "How bout Bowling" Glimmer asked, making the blonde flinch
"So...about that, Glim..."
"Can't imagine that went well" Catra threw in with a smirk, feeling the distress but all too eager to tease
