The Necklace :))

This story is about a woman whose life became miserable because of the necklace she borrowed. Her previous life was just simple but it all started when her husband got home holding a large envelope containing an invitation to a ball. But when Mathilde open it she threw it on the table. Her husband ask if what is the problem? "I don't have any dress" She answered, Then her husband give four hundred francs to her so she can buy a dress. Then she got another problem she doesn't have any jewelry so she borrowed a necklace from her friend, Mme. Forestier. When they entered the ball all of the men look at her. After that when Mathile got home she realized that the necklace was gone and she got nervous, her husband was shock that she lost the necklace. 

 Mathilde lie to Forestier that her necklace was broken and they try to fix it but Mathilde plans to buy another necklace same as the necklace she lost. They search in a shop at the Palais Royal, a string diamonds which is
exactly the same the one she lost. It was worth forty thousand francs but they begged the jeweler not to sell it for three days. And her husband made a bargain to buy it for thirty-four thousand francs. Mathilde and her husband really need to work hard to buy that necklace.

Then they earn the money they buy the necklace right away. When Mathilde found Mme. Forestier she return the necklace to her then Forestier was shock that Mathilde looks old. Mathilde explain what happen she told Forestier the truth about the necklace then Forestier was surprise that the necklace Mathilde bought was thirty-four thousand francs but the real price of the necklace of Forestier was five hundred francs.
