You were walking near the forest, unsure about what to do at this time of day. It was near noon on a blazing hot summer day in the middle of summer break. The beaches were too crowded, the ice cream shop had a line that reached the horizon, and your mother told you to go outside. The tee shirt was sweaty and stuck to your skin.
You started to hum a simple tune, one that had pitches that were too high for you to sing. A rustle in a bush made you jump and turn around.
A little girl walked out from the bush. Not only was it strange for a random stranger to be in a bush, but she also had purple skin and long hair.
She looked sad, her eyes red rimmed and her mouth formed into a pout.
"Who are you?" you asked, still surprised.
"Amethyst." the girl said, with a sniff. You tried to process the fact that there was a girl there, standing in front of you, who seemed to be lost, since her eyes were red with tears. What were you suppose to do?
"Rose used to sing like that..." Amethyst said, trailing off.
"Who?"
"Rose Quartz. She sang like that." Amethyst said. You nodded, pretending to know who this Rose person was. If it made the little girl feel better....
You started to hum again, starting a high pitch, your voice threatening to crack. Amethyst looked hypnotized, watching you with an admiring look.
You finished the song, surprised that you did so well.
"Do you know where you live?" you asked. Amethyst nodded, and you let out a sigh of relief. She seemed old enough to know where she lived, and the sun was racing towards the waves of the sea. The girl, without a word, ran off to the general direction of a cliff. You watched as she disappeared, and ran off to your own home.
