"I know you stole this"

When I was 9, I would hang out with this girl all the time. We were the same age and our moms were the same age, so we would all hang out and go to barbecues and stuff. 

I remember one day going over to their house and overhearing my friend's mother talking about a really important necklace of hers that had gone missing. She described it in detail.

When I went to use the bathroom, I remember picking up some stuffed animal, and I saw that her necklace was right under it! I was so proud to have found it, and I knew she was going to be so happy that I found it for her. 

When I excitedly told her that I found it in the bathroom, she looked at me and said, "I know you stole this." 

I remember trying to say,  "No I actually found it... " and she just interrupted and said, "No you definitely stole this. You look like the type to steal."

I was just so upset. I thought she was going to be happy with me. 

And for some reason, 14 years later I still think about that day.
