Ask Away

Speak Up

It was a special day yesterday

Sometimes it’s pretty hard to decide what to buy. Dazzling diamonds and sophisticated pearls all around. I named my budget, and various options were presented. Tea was served.

I focussed mainly on necklaces, either those white gold pendants or the ones with pearls. Kiv-ed afew, but they barely made the mark. They just didn’t look presentable enough, the white gold pendants were too petit for my taste, but the pearl ones were rather awful. I finally settled on one with a unique design with a mixture of rose gold and white gold entwined together. The lady at the counter went off to pack and I had time to finish my tea.

In the meantime, something caught my eyes. A pearl necklace and earrings set, having matching designs of pearls with white and rose gold entwined around it. The pearl necklace had a gigantic pearl, and superbly round it was. Sparks flew when my vision was laid upon it. Love at first sight, definitely. Without second thought I changed my purchase for this, although the price was way above budget, and a tad bit expensive considering my situation now. Nevertheless, that was the feeling I need, an impulse that this should be hers, a confirmation that this will bring a smile.

Indeed. Amidst all the usual “don’t want any present” and “save your money” talk, there was a big, wide grin. The sweet kind that warms a heart and makes one fuzzy all over.

It was a special day yesterday, for her and for me.

The smile was priceless. :)
