The Universal Liar
“In reality, hope is the worst of all evils, because it prolongs man’s torments.”
-Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human
Pearl still hopes.
Even when there are signs that say otherwise, she’s always hoping that maybe he’ll start noticing her. She recognizes that she’s not the most extraordinary of girls, and that maybe Miss Skye really is more interesting than her. There’s nothing she can do about that; she refuses to jump through hoops or change who she is to cater to someone, no matter how much she loved them.
The fact that it will likely never be hurts more than it should. Pearl had resigned herself to the fact that most of the time things like this ended in nothing but self-torment and sadness. She was too young to really understand the concept of love, anyway.
Still, hope is her greatest downfall.
