A while back I was very heavy. Ok, I was fat. FAT! F-A-T! Fat. I was FAT! (I lost about 115 pounds so far - to give you an idea of how fat I was. Finally, I am a normal size again).
Anyway, my aunt had given me a very old ring. It was about a 3500.00 ring. I loved it but it didn't fit my finger because I was so fat. My sister, who loves jewelry, wanted it. I didn't want to give it to her because it was for me, from my aunt who is very old. But I figured I couldn't wear it so I decided to let her wear it. She told me that if I ever wanted it back I could have it. I made her promise to not sell it or lose it. She said she wouldn't.
It was a family heirloom. A very old, special ring. Well, I recently asked my sister for it because I could wear it now and guess what? She lost it. Not only did she lose it, but you know how? She PAWNED it. She got 350 dollars for a 3500.00 dollar ring!!! And instead of paying for the loan on it, she just let it go.
Now, she is upset if my mom or I mention it to her. She says, "Why do you keep bringing it up?!" Just like it was ok to do. I can't believe it. But I am not angry toward her. It's bugging me a little inside, but what can we do? It's lost. I just can't believe her attitude toward it.
What would you do? Wouldn't you be a bit upset?
