It was Wednesday evening and Tom, Sima and Kojo were at a special jewel exhibition at the City Gallery. Kojo's cousin, Jasmine, was the curator there and she had given them free tickets for the event. Tom and Kojo looked very smart in their dinner jackets and Sima looked beautiful in a long gold dress. Round her neck she wore a sparkling crystal on a thin, silver chain. Tom and Kojo had given it to her for her birthday and she loved it.
