She got off the bus yesterday and she was really upset.

Mommy, I lost my necklace.

What?! Where did you lose it?

Vanessa wanted to look at it and then she put it in her pocket and said she's keeping it. FOREVER!

She can't do that. Wait, did you tell her that she can have it?

NO!

Did you ask her to give it back to you?

Yes. And she said, no.

Well, tomorrow ask her for the necklace back and if she still doesn't give it back to you, tell the bus monitor that Vanessa doesn't want to give your necklace back. OK?

OK... I really like that necklace.

It's not even an expensive necklace, but still...
