It was the very same necklace I saw in the window at the high-end jewelry store last year. It was incredibly expensive, and I asked Ethan if he could buy it for me on multiple different occasions. But he always brushed it off and got me something else.
He always told me that he wanted my gifts to be unexpected and that it’s not fun if I know what I’m getting. I eventually stopped asking him for the necklace in hop
