Maria had wanted a watch for almost as long as she could remember, so when she opened the watch-sized box on her twelfth birthday, she could hardly contain her excitement. It was a real watch with hands that slowly moved around the white face, each hour marked with a shiny gold number. She especially loved the tiny diamond placed at the twelve mark.
