Lily gazed at the necklace, as though in a trance. "Lily?" Ann asked uncertainly. Her voice snapped Lily out of her trance. "Yeah?" Lily asked Ann. "nothing..it was just...nothing" said Ann. Lily nodded. "yeah...OK...i am going to see how much this costs." said Lily walking to the shopkeeper of the booth. Lily stopped in front of her. "How much is it?" Lily asked her.
