The day of the ball drew near, and Mathilde seemed sad, uneasy, and anxious although her dress was ready
Why don't you ask your friend, Madame Forestier, to lend you one?

At the ball, Mathilde was a great succes. All the men and women looked at her, asked her name, sought to be introduced.
I am Mathilde Loisel. Nice to meet you.
Myself Claire. Who are you?

She left the ball at about 4 o'clock in the morning and reached home via a quay. At home..
Oh my god! Honey, the necklace is not around my neck anymore! I've lost it!
I shall go back on foot, over the whole route, to see whether I can find it

Loisel went to the police station, cab companies and lot more places, but was unable to find it. So both of them decided to replace it with another.
POLICE STATION
I have not been able to find the necklace. We must consider how to replace that ornament.

it annoys me not have a single piece of jewelery. I will look like a poverty- striken fool.
