''How is everything doing at home?'' Scootaloo raised her eyebrow, while taking a huge bite from her taco.

''It's been alright, I suppose.'' Diamond sighed. She laid her head onto the table, while starring outside the window. ''My mom hasn't been talking a lot to me, and my dad is still away because of work.''

''I'm sorry to hear that, Tiara.'' Scootaloo lowered her ears. ''So, she isn't talking to you at all?''

''Nope. Not even a word.'' Diamond raised her head up. ''Have you ever had a situation like this before? Where your parent's wouldn't say a single word to you?''

Scootaloo shook her head. ''Not at all. My parent's are usually super busy, which is why they aren't usually home.''

''Same for me. My parent's are so caught up with work, especially daddy.'' Diamond whimpered. ''I do wish they would stay home, more offten.''

Diamond Tiara took a sip from her tea, she stared into the tea cup, her eyes widen and she took a deep breath. "Have you... have you ever wanted a sister?"

Scootaloo gulped down her piece of taco, that was left in her mouth. "A sister? I already have one! Well, sorta.."

"What do you mean "sorta"?" Diamond said, raising her brow.

"Rainbow Dash." Scootaloo proudly grinned. "She's one of the most bestest, superest, greatest pony of all time! She's brave, fast, smart, and so awesome!"

While Scootaloo was squealing in joy, Diamond Tiara looked down. "She sounds amazing." She sighed. "Have you ever entered the "sisterhooves social"? I heard it's mighty fun."

"Oh yeah, definitely!" Scootaloo nodded. "It sure was fun! We even won first place! It was our first time though, I was not expecting us to win on a first try. I suppose we're just that awesome!"

Diamond chuckled. "I guess you two are. I wish I was that awesome."

"Aren't you?"

"Do you even remember what I did to you Crusaders?" Diamond Tiara said, in a low tone. "I did nothing but hurt your feelings! I said mean and rude things to you! I called you "blank flanks", and continued it forever! I made fun of your wings, and your lack of flying. I did everything that my mom thought me."

"It was horrible..."

"That's the point! I was awful, and only now I realize it! All because of my dumb mother!" Diamond Tiara's eyes watered, and she turned her head away.

"Also because of your dad," Scootaloo smirked.

Diamond Tiara looked at Scootaloo.

"Oh, sorry..." Scootaloo blushed.

Diamond wiped of the tears in her eyes and sighed. "To be honest, I always wanted a sister or a brother."

"Really?"

"Yeah." Diamond chuckled. "I always wanted someone by my side, some close relative. I wouldn't even care, if it would be an filly or colt, I would love either."

"I always wanted a bigger sister, but my parent's never liked the idea of having another filly in the family. We are already having trouble, taking care of ourselves."

"I could help you out, Scoots." Diamond Tiara grinned. "You can borrow some money from me, I wouldn't mind."

"Really, Tiara? That's very, very, very kind of you, but that's way too big of a gift."

"It's alright! My mommy and daddy are rich anyway!" Diamond winked and giggled.

"If you say so." Scootaloo looked at Diamond concerned. "So you are the only filly in your family?"

"Yup. That certainly is true." Diamond Tiara said. "Only now, did I realize that my parent's seriously spoiled me."

"Really? Only now? Pfft, I noticed it the second time I saw you." Scootaloo laughed.

Diamond rolled her eyes and flipped her mane. "I'm really sorry."

"Don't worry 'bout it! We all forgive you, anyway."

"I know! I know! But I feel like an apology isn't enough for everything I did!" Diamond Tiara shouted. "I want to give you something more!"

Diamond stepped off from her seat and placed a few bits onto the counter. "Come on! Let's go!"

Scootaloo looked at Diamond Tiara with a confused expression. "Where?"

"Just follow me."

Diamond Tiara opened the doors to her house, bringing in Scootaloo with her. Both fillies trotted to Diamond's room. Diamond Tiara closed the door behind them, and searched under her bed.

"Watcha' looking for, Tiara?" Asked Scootaloo, as she watched how Diamond trotted around the room.

''Something,'' Diamond Tiara muttered under her breath. ''just wait.''

Scootaloo sat down and yawned, while waiting for Diamond Tiara.

''Here it is.'' Diamond Tiara smiled, she trotted to Scootaloo with a big grin on her face. ''This is for you, Sweetie Belle, and Applebloom. Open it with your friends.''

''I sure will! But I have to go now,'' Scootaloo sighed. ''big thanks for the money, and this gift. That's really kind of you, Tiara.''

''My pleasure, Scoots.'' Diamond Tiara grinned.

''Applebloom! Sweetie Belle!'' Shouted Scootaloo, running up to the clubhouse. She marched into the club house with a wide grin on her face. ''Cheek this out! Diamond Tiara got us a gift!''

''That sure seems interesting'.'' Applebloom said.

''What's inside that?'' Asked Sweetie Belle, while trotting over to Scootaloo and Applebloom.

''I don't know, she told me to open it with you guys,'' Scootaloo replied.

Applebloom unwrapped the gift box and took out a long poster. The poster had a picture of Diamond Tiara with The cutie mark crusaders, and Rarity with Applejack.

''Look! There is something written below,'' Said Scootaloo, as she started to read out loud. ''Dear Cutie Mark Crusaders, after all these months, I never realized how awful I was, and how horrible you felt. I only did what I was always taught by my mother and father, to always be the winner, and always find a way to be the best. Even though I was really popular, Silver Spoon was the only true friend of mine, and I always felt a bit lonely inside. I always feared of disappointing my mom and dad, I never wanted to let them down. I only now realized that sometimes I went too far, and I'm glad that all three of you got your cutie marks, I truly am. I'm not sure how Silver feels at the moment, she is probably still upset about me... I really hope everything is going to be okay, and everyone can be my friend now. I hope this will be a bigger apology for what I have done to you all. Please accept these made cookies, just for you. I even learned all your favorite types of cookies, from your sisters. Scootaloo, you have two chocolate cookies, Sweetie Belle has strawberry cookies with whip cream, and Applebloom has vanilla cookies with a slice of apple, on top. I hope you guys enjoy it, I know it's not much, but please forgive me. -Diamond Tiara.''

''That sure is nice of her,'' Sweetie Belle blushed.

''I really do like vanilla cookies! And slice of apple on top? Mah' favorite!'' Applebloom cheered.

''Mother...?''

No reply.

''Mother!''

Still no reply.

''Mother! How long won't you talk to-''

''Diamond Tiara.'' She spoke.

''Y..Yes...?'' Diamond gulped.

''I was very surprised about yesterday.'' Said Spoiled Rich, turning to her daughter. ''I never knew you would stand up to me like that,''

''I had to, mother!'' Said Diamond Tiara. ''You always taught me to be the winner and make everypony obey you! But that is not true! Thanks to you, I hurt many ponies feelings, even my most best of friend!''

''Sometimes you have to work dirty, to get what you want, and to be the winner,''

''No, mom! Not always I should be the winner, there is nothing wrong with being the loser. There is nothing wrong about not getting everything you want! You have done nothing but spoiled me, and always thought me something that can hurt other ponies!''

''Diamond Tiara, how dare YOU talk like that in front of your mother?''

''I can, Mom! I can talk back to you! I can stand up to you! Your a horrible mother, and you should feel horrible! And Dad probably feels the same!''

''And how do you know that!?'' Spoiled Rich shouted, hitting her hoove against the ground.

''Unless like you! I try to spend time and get to know my dad! He might love you somehow, but I do know that somewhere deep inside, he has many bad feelings about you.''

Diamond Tiara walked back to her room, with no shame for what she just said to her own mother. She didn't feel guilty, bad, or sad, she felt strong and proud. Diamond hoped that everypony will be happy again, and everypony will be friends.
