"Okay Pearl. You can do it." The Gem coached herself into calling the number in her hands. The phone was brand new. Apparently Garnet had already purchased a family cell phone without Pearl's or either of the kids' knowledge. It was a nice change.
Pearl began shaking as she dialed the number in her palm.

"Hello?"
"Oh hello! I'm Pearl. We met at the concert last weekend. I wanted to call and see how you were doing."
"Oh hi! I'm so glad you called! I didn't get to introduce myself and I've been meaning to try to find you. My name is Sheena! I had so much fun at the concert chatting and hope to see you again!"
"Nice to meet you, Sheena! I would like that a lot!"
"Good! How about next Saturday? We can go get lunch."
"Sounds fine to me!"
"Good. see you then!"
"Okay. Goodbye!"
Pearl hung up the phone with a smile on her face.
Amethyst walked by and saw momma gem looking exceptionally happy.
"Did you call that girl from the concert?"
All Pearl could do was nod. She was so happy that she couldn't even speak.
"I'm glad you're moving on. Rose would want that."
Pearl gave her a hug.
"I know. I'm glad too."
