The Sole Jeweler
The couple in question had lived their entire lives within the exact same town. This was the identical place where Sara and Lydia had passed their entire lives together, and where Lydia would eventually encounter John. In all their years, the two had only ever known a single jeweler in the small town, one that she had never needed to visit in all her life. Of course, Lydia had never had much money spare for jewelry, but when she finally walked into the store, it soon dawned on her why she had never walked in through the front doors.

In her hysteria and rush to get the ring into safe hands, Lydia had completely forgotten a crucial warning that her mother had imparted onto her before passing. Sara had once waved her finger in Lydia’s face with grave concern, saying that her daughter was never to walk into that jeweler’s shop. Lydia had never really wondered why her mother had so strongly cautioned her against walking into this place, not that it had never mattered, as she had never been well off enough for treats like these.
