SCRIPT:
NARRATOR: Once upon a time there was a man who owned a jewelry store. Every day he used to see a little girl who came to watch something in the window. Finally one day, she decided to enter.
MAN: What can I do for you?.
LITTLE GIRL: Sir, may I see that pearl necklace?.
MAN: How much money do you have?.
NARRATOR: The little girl took out from her pocket a white handckerchief. She opened it, put it on the counter, and said.
LITTLE GIRL: Is this enough?.
MAN: You want to buy that beautiful necklace with a few coins?.
LITTLE GIRL: Do you know what?. I want to give it to my sister. Since our mother died she has taken care of us. She doesn’t even have time for herself!. It’s her birthday, and I am sure she will be happy with that necklace. She loves pearls!.
MAN: Let me wrap it for you.
LITTLE GIRL: Oh, thank you, sir!.
NARRATOR: The man placed the necklace in an elegant white box, he put a purple lace around it, and three pink flowers on top.
MAN: Here it is. Be careful.
LITTLE GIRL: I will, sir.
NARRATOR: The girl left, and a few hours later a beautiful girl entered the store carrying an unwrapped gift box.
MAN: May I help you?.
NARRATOR: The girl took out fom the box the necklace and said.
GIRL: Yes. Someone bought this necklace here. How much did it cost?.
MAN: Ah, I can not tell you the price. It’s confidential!. The price is just between my client and me.
GIRL: But my sister only had a few coins, and the pearls on this necklace are genuine, aren’t they?. She didn’t have enough money to buy it.
NARRATOR: The man took the necklace and wrapped it again, gave it back to the girl and said.
MAN: She paid the highest price any person can pay. She gave everything she had.
NARRATOR: Then there was silence in the store and the girl cried when the man gave her back the gift.
