After coming out of that secret vault, I realised that Venus had brought my mothers earrings along with him after seeing me look at it with a tinge of sorrow.
I still didn't know how to feel about all this as I looked at the old man fidgeting with the pair of earings.
On a closer look I realised that the item wasn't all black but had a crimson coloured stone dangling at the ends of it.
He gave me a kind smile as he handed the item over to me.
"You deserve it," the old man sighed .
I don't know why but hearing that line made something in my clam and uncaring heart break as I felt grateful to him for giving them to me.
I took them from the old man's hand and held them close to me.
Looking at the engravings carved on the earrings, my finges trembled as I slowly shook my head, trying to adorn the beautiful masterpiece.
The design was so delicate, so sharp at the edges that it almost felt alive.
