Seeing Red (CM Punk WWE)

Twenty-Six- Weaknesses

Pearl Rojo kicked off her shoes exhausted from another long day at the bank. She had just picked up a sleeping Keri from her mothers house and Jorge was working the late shift at Home Depot, it was a usual lonely night. She sat and sorted through the mail,

"Just bills, does no one write letters anymore?" She sighed, she scrolled through her phone, nothing new, she went to check the wrestling news just to see how things were going for Ruby since she hadn't heard from her for a few days.The headlines read "Redfox suspended after outburst" and other varieties of the same thing, the ones before read "Divas TLC match scrapped at Wrestlemania", Pearl gasped "holy shit. Ruby must be a mess!" She started searching her phone contacts and found her sisters which she called immediately. It rang and it rang, but no answer, and of course Ruby didn't have a voicemail. "Shit Ruby, please answer" she muttered, she dialed Opal.

"Hello?" Asked Opal sounding exhausted

"Have you heard from Ruby?!" Pearl asked trying not to worry Opal who had past issues with panic attacks.

"Uh no, I think I last talked to her a few days ago, you know she still hasn't talked to mom, which understandable because mom is so unsupportive-"

"Ope!" Pearl rolled her eyes, Opal had a habit of making her childhood as the oldest so much more dramatic than it was. "Focus! so you haven't?" She asked again

"No why? What's wrong?" She asked

"Uh just well...I guess her title match got scrapped, and well...I guess she had some sort of outburst and got suspended from WWE" Pearl explained

"Oh my...is she ok?"

"I don't know...I haven't heard from her"

"I hope she's ok" Opal sounded worried

"Oh I bet she is!" Pearl assured her "you know how headstrong Ruby's always been, she's never needed anyone before I doubt she will now"

"Yeah but that's what worries me,...do you think that if she ever needed help, she'd ask? You know how hell bent she is on doing things on her own, it's like she thinks she has to deal with things by herself"

"I don't know...I hope she would..." Now Pearl was the one who was worried. They were silent for a moment

"What about her boyfriend?" Asked Opal,

"I don't know his number..."

"He's called moms house before, ask her!"

"Oh yeah!"

"Wait Pearl!"

"What?"

"Have you considered y'know checking her house!?"

"Oh that would work..."

"Wanna go together? We have to make sure our baby sister is ok"

"Yeah, let me just put Keri in the car and I'll get you!"

"Ok that gives me time to tell Andres to watch Andrea and Frankie"

"See you in 10"

"Alright, I hope she's alright."

15 minutes and a messy diaper change later Pearl found herself in front of her eldest sisters apartment with a grumpy almost 2 year old in the back seat clutching her stuffed dinosaur. She honked and Opal came out and got in the care

"Drive drive DRIVE!" Ordered Opal, "if the kids notice I'm gone they'll freak out" she looked out of the car nervously. Pearl couldn't help but laugh,

"Sometimes I envy Ruby's decision to not settle down so soon" she thought out loud, Opal sighed as they turned away from her street

"Me too," they were quiet for they reminisced for the 15 minutes it took for them to get to Ruby's apartment "she just had to pick the 3 floor" groaned Opal as she walked up the stairs
