I bent down to take the chopstick and then I saw a broken pearl bracelet under the bed. It looked like a dollar store bracelet.

I took a closer look at it. I had a feeling that I saw this somewhere before. Before I could think about it, Aaron's voice came from above.

"Nancy , are you having any difficulty finding the chopstick? Shall I bring a new one? "

I quickly kept the bracelet in my purse and stood up. "Yes, please." I replied to Aaron.

Aaron went to get the chopstick. I passed a gentle smile to Aaron's mother. I couldn't place my finger on it but there was something weird about her. I dismissed the thought for now.

By the end of the evening we were so full that we couldn't move.

"We had a great time Aaron. Thanks for having us." Ned said looking at Aaron.

"And the food was delicious." George added with a fake smile on her face. "Shall we go now?"

"I'll drop you guys. Come on. Bye mom!" He said. He passed a kind of look to his mother as if speaking with his eyes.

At 5:45 pm...

We reached the hotel and decided to head to our rooms as we were very tired.

I kept my purse on the table and went on to change into something comfortable.

While picking my clothes I heard a thud sound from behind. I turned to see what it was and saw that my purse had fallen with all the things spilled out with George looking at me with a sorry face.

I laughed at her cuteness,"it's okay georgiee". I bent down to pick up the things and she joined to help me.

"What's this Nancy? Why did you keep this broken bracelet here?"

"Oh it's nothing. I just got it when we were at Aaron's house, under Aaron's mom bed." I replied.

Just then Bess came from the washroom, coming closer to see what we were doing.

"Hey! This bracelet! I saw it somewhere." She exclaimed scratching her head. "But where? Think Bess think. " bess talked to herself.

"Oh yes! I remember. " she said all of a sudden which almost gave me a minor heart attack.

"What? Where? Say Bess. " George said impatiently.

"Let me say. " she shouted and we became silent as we were scared of her anger.

"It is Marie's bracelet. " bess said which made us shocked.

"How is that possible? Marie is a different topic and Aaron's mom is a different topic." I said her with an unbelievable expression. "And that too, Marie is dead. So how will her broken bracelet come to Aaron's house?" I asked.

"Ahh yeah. But we had a doubt on Aaron right? So may be... " George added and we understood what she meant by this.

And then Ned entered into our room. He stood there froze as he saw different expressions on our faces.
