My heart-shaped locket. My favorite necklace. Ive worn this since I was thirteen.

I normally don’t get homesick when I go to school trips for about one week, but five weeks is quite a long period of time. I miss my family a lot already and I’m very grateful I have this necklace with me to remind me that my mother and my other family members love me very much and that they’re beside me all the time.
 I never take this necklace off anymore, ever since the accident. I was fifteen years old, it was a normal school day, I took a shower at school after physical education class, I took off my necklace and after I threw some clothes on, I left the school, completely forgotten about the necklace placed next to the sink. When I got home, I went crazy and panicked that somebody must have taken it.
         Next day when I went to school, I rushed into the bathroom and I could have sworn I never felt any happier when I saw my heart-shaped locket laying right next to the sink untouched from yesterday. From then on, I promised myself I would take it to anywhere, when I shower, even when I sleep. I could not risk another chance of losing it. I think about this incident every before I sleep, tonight I did the same, I looked at it, smiled. Goodnight mother and father.
