That took a lot longer than it should've.
The trio Sodalite had observed was, in actuality, a quartet. A little yellow gem, a familiar one, had too entered the temple, her tiny frame hidden by the larger one before her. Though she had seemed so determined to get into the temple only minutes earlier, it seemed now as if she'd rather be anywhere but, obscuring herself from the eyes of others and her own eyes fixed to the floor, as if she dared not to even look at them. The room was heavy with the loss of Howlite, and with her gone, she couldn't help but feel that her presence would be all the more unwelcome.
Should've been you.
She wouldn't have blamed the others for thinking so as well.
After what seemed like forever to Eve, she finally stepped away from Mars, abandoning the security of remaining hidden, though her eyes were still fixed to the floor. With quite some hesitation, she moved her head up, finding her former friend within less than a second, sitting upon a wheeled chair with enough papers in her hand to pass for her own scrapped apology letters. Thought her eyes met with Sodalite's, and her mouth had opened as if to speak, no words came out. She quickly shut it and remained silent, as she had learned to do after her last encounter with the blue gem.
