Dolores looked down and saw the 'pigeon egg' in her daughter's hand.

She was in a hurry to leave and left it on the bed in her room. Simona went up to look for her, and instead of finding her, she saw something shiny on the bed.

Simona loved the shiny diamond. She didn't know what it was worth, and just thought it was funny.

Dolores didn’t know what to do. She looked back at Matthew and asked his opinion. This was not an ordinary toy, and she could not make the decision.

Besides, how could this be a toy?

Matthew, however, thought it was no big deal. Dolores didn't like it anyway, and he was happy that Simona liked it.

He stroked his daughter's hair dotingly, "You like it?"

Simona nodded seriously, "Yes. It's so shiny. I have never seen such a shiny stone. Daddy, mommy, where did you pick it up from?"

She wanted to pick one up too.

It was so pretty.

And girls all loved pink and sparkly things.

Dolores was speechless.

A stone?

She squatted down at Simona’s eye level, and taught her patiently, "Simona, this is not an ordinary stone and can't be picked up, and it's very rare. You can't take it outside. I'll put it away for you. When you grow up, I'll give it to you again, okay?"

It would be more than worth it if she took it outside and then let greedy people see it and invite disaster to her.

Simona didn't understand what her mother meant, and she just learned that this stone seemed to be a bit valuable.

She looked down at the “pigeon egg”. It was really shiny.

She liked it a lot.

Dolores could see that Simona didn't want to give it to her. She sighed slightly, "I'm not saying I won't give it to you, but it's worth a lot of money. If you take it outside and the bad guy sees it, he’ll rob you of it."

Simona seemed to be able to imagine someone robbing it from her already, so she held the diamond tightly in her arms.
