Karlo, filled with excitement and nervousness, returned home and headed straight for her training room designated for "seclusion," and she shut the door behind her.
Then, she carefully opened the envelope.
Inside was a letter, along with a beautiful earring.
This is beautiful!
Karlo's eyes lit up as she pinched the small earring between her fingers.
The earring's design was simple yet elegant. Its main body was silver, and hanging from the bottom was a carefully polished obsidian, shaped like a tear about to fall, reflecting a profound and gorgeous light under the lamp. Karlo had actually just come of age, a time when beauty is cherished, without even caring what was written in the letter, she immediately rushed to the mirror with the earring, clattering along.
She pinched her earlobe and a nostalgic smile suddenly appeared on her face.
