	She sat in class all day, paying no attention to the lessons. Her mind wandered to other things, like her Nightmare, and her loneliness, and words.
The words Diamond Tiara had first said to them when they started their friendship, those of promise and dreams, of happiness and joy, of teamwork and self sacrifice, of the never ending bond between them.
The words Diamond Tiara had said and pressured Silver Spoon to repeat. Those mean, hurtful words that stung and tasted bitter in her mouth. All she wanted to do was to never had said them.
The words Diamond Tiara had said that Silver Spoon didn't repeat, before the incident.
The words Diamond Tiara had said  to Silver Spoon that broke her heart and crushed her morale.
The words that Silver Spoon struggled to find that she could say to apologize to everypony she had hurt. Were there words that could mend what she had done? Could she ever apologize enough to Applebloom for what she had done? Were there words? Could she apologize to Babs Seed for what she made her do? Could she ever make up for the cruelness she had imposed on Scootaloo? Could she ever say sorry enough to Rumble, Featherweight, Twist, Snips, Snails, and...her?
"Silver Spoon" Miss Cheerilee's sing-song voice rang in the air like the song of a siren. "Can you answer the question?"
Silver Spoon hardly gave the teacher a second look before returning to her thoughts. Silver Spoon felt no need to answer the question, she knew the answer, there are no words.
