Afra had to bite back her remarks when Kat dropped a necklace with three diamond pendants from her hand into Afra's palm .

There was - Afra made out - three diamonds . A black one , a pink and a exquisitely shiny white heart . She felt very hesitant in accepting these because they felt heavy in her hand which inturn made it a fact that those were real diamonds .

"Er , girls ," She pulled her legs underneath her and adjusted closer . "Are these real ?"

Jazz snickered , and Afra found it a little unsettling . That expression gave her the answer she was not meaning to hear .

"Of course they're real ."

Kat and Dandelion adjusted with their gowns while Jazz extended her legs in front of her .
