It Could Only Have Been Sara
Lydia was born in 1969 to an absent father who would soon leave her mother upon discovering that his partner was pregnant. Sara, Lydia’s mother, then found herself in a desperate situation when she had almost no money to care for the baby Lydia. The thievery probably began out of need. Lydia could not excuse her mother’s crimes, but she appreciated how far her mother had gone to provide for them. She looked to the jeweler, who had one positive thing to surprisingly bring to the story.

It had been a whirlwind of emotions for Lydia, who now feared that the jeweler would call the police. But he was not about to involve anyone in this situation. In fact, he told Lydia that she could keep the ring! The police were unlikely to arrest anyone for a crime that had been committed decades ago, anyway. This was a jeweler with a big heart, who knew that this ring’s worth went far beyond the material for Lydia, far beyond any money that he could have made off it.
