She decided to send Annie a text to ask her if she had spotted the bracelet somewhere, as Annie wasn’t at home. Annie did not reply to her, but she could see she was posting things on her social media accounts.
She then asked her dad and her stepmom if they had seen her bracelet, but none of them knew where it was.
“At this point, I started doubting my own memory and broke down crying. My bracelet was an extremely special and expensive gift from my mom and had a lot of sentimental value,” she said.
She didn’t see how she could have misplaced something that means so much to her. Several hours after she discovered her bracelet was missing, Annie returned to the house. She asked Annie a second time if she knew about it, and this time Annie stopped for a moment.
She appeared to think about everything before telling her that the bracelet was in her bag and she had decided to borrow it for the party she went to.
“I couldn’t believe that she’d just taken my $10,000 bracelet without my permission, knowing it was a special gift from my mom (she’d complimented it before, and I’d explained to her the value/history),” she mentioned.
“I blew up at her and asked how she could just take my bracelet without asking and then called her a thief.”
Annie got mad right back, saying she didn’t think it would be that big of a deal. Annie then grabbed the bracelet out of her bag and threw it as hard as she could at her face.
She was able to get out of the way before the bracelet could hit her in the face, but it did slam into the floor.
She started sobbing after she picked up the bracelet and saw all of the scratches across it that had never been there before.
She’s not sure if Annie scratched the bracelet wearing it out or if the scratches came from when the bracelet hit the floor.
