17 Here we go. I would have to tell her the truth. I hated it when my mother lec-
tured me, but I couldn’t lie to her, not to my mother.
18 “I lost Grandma’s necklace,” I blurted out. “I’m so sorry. I looked everywhere
for it.”
19 She stopped chopping. The helpless carrots lay waiting under the sharp edge
of her knife. Her expression was one I’d never seen before. She said nothing.
20 “Mom, please don’t be angry with me. It was an accident.”
21 Then she walked out of the room. Oh, this was worse than I thought. She
couldn’t even stand to look at me.
22 A moment later, she reappeared in the doorway. “Do you remember what I
said when I gave you the necklace?”
23 I nodded.
24 “I said you were old enough now to be trusted with greater responsibilities.”
25 As I brushed away a tear, my mother smiled at me. She held out her hand, and
in the middle of her palm was my grandmother’s silver necklace with the heart-
shaped pendant.“I found this on the driveway,” she said. She fastened the neck-
lace around my neck. Hanging from the chain, the heart sparkled in the light. “It
looks very pretty on you.”
26 The next day, I showed Meheer the necklace before the start of third period.
He laughed at me. “I told you it would turn up. Meheer Singh is never wrong!”
27 That period, Mr. Keeling gave us a brief lecture about lightning. Halfway
through, I felt for my grandmother’s necklace. It was gone! I flipped up my text-
book, but it wasn’t underneath. I searched the floor by my feet and book bag, but
it wasn’t there. I began rifling through my bag when Mr. Keeling noticed me.
“Kari, is there something wrong?”
28 Nothing except that all my inner organs were shrinking to the size of raisins!
“No, sir,” I said. “I’m sorry.”
29 I stared at my open textbook. I can’t remember much of what Mr. Keeling said,
except for his answer to Tim Brown’s question: “So while it is highly unlikely that
lightning will ever strike the same place twice, it is not impossible.” I was doomed.
How could I make it in the world if I couldn’t even keep up with one necklace?
30 When we broke into our lab groups, I pulled Meheer aside. “I can’t find my
necklace. I’ve lost it—again!”
31 “Now don’t freak out, Kari.”
32 “You don’t understand how important this is!”

CEM0213022021
33 “Okay, fine. Be upset if you want,” he said. “But wait until I show you this.”
And he held up my grandmother’s necklace. The silver chain swung back and
forth, the heart-shaped pendant flashing and glinting in the light.
34 “Where was it? I looked all over.”
35 “It was on the floor.” Then he held the clasp in front of me. “Look at this. The
clasp is broken. It doesn’t stay closed. See, it’s not your fault you keep losing it.”
36 I thanked Meheer and put the necklace carefully in my pocket. This time, I
wasn’t going to lose anything.
