A diamond bracelet for my bride-to-be sister

Do you have a sibling? If yes, you would know that the relationship with our brother/sister feels incomplete without those periodic fights. And yet, the bond we share with them is so deep that we don’t know what we do without them. My sister is my constant companion, my confidant, and the one I absolutely love to fight with. So obviously, when she decided to get married, I clearly was the happiest person in the house. I have been waiting for this event for as long as I can remember, but more than that I am glad she is getting married to the guy she loves.

So when the families fixed upon the date of marriage, I was overjoyed. I really wanted to give her something special as her marriage gift. But because the announcement came sooner than I had expected, it didn’t leave me much time to save money as I wanted to gift her something nice before her engagement. I decided I would buy her a simple yet classy diamond bracelet from a reputed jewellery shop in Delhi. I went to various jewellers, saw the designs, got an estimate of how one bracelet would cost me, and then started accumulating money. Apart from saving most of my monthly income from my job, I did some content writing work as a freelancer. Of course, I had to work extra-extra hard for a couple of months but I feel it was totally worth it.

When I finally had the amount in my bank, I went to Hazoorilal Jewellers, from where my sister was buying part of her wedding jewellery and selected a beautiful diamond bracelet under my budget. Choosing a piece wasn’t so much of a problem because I knew what my sister would like. When I actually gifted her the bracelet, she really couldn’t believe it because during the 5 years I had been working for, I had never gifted her anything, even on her birthdays. She loved the bracelet and even wore it in her engagement. Her wedding is just a few weeks away and I am really looking forward to it. It feels great to be the reason for someone else’s smile, so if you want to give a special someone something, don’t think and just go ahead.
