Chapter 13 - THE EARRING
My mother’s earring was found under a banquet chair.
Bent.
The post had torn through the lobe when Travis hit me.
A jeweler could repair the earring.
My ear healed.
I did not wear it again.
For months, the missing pair sat in a box.
One damaged.
One perfect.
Dad asked:
“Want me to replace them?”
“No.”
“Same design.”
“No.”
“Why?”
“Because then they become the earrings from the gala forever.”
He understood.
Eventually I had the damaged one repaired.
Then gave both to a jewelry archive for safekeeping.
Not displayed.

Not sold.
Objects do not need to become monuments.
