So much theft.

Your mother's jewelry, gifts and keepsakes you'd given her in childhood, mementos of her father: inexpensive family treasures, minor material value, laden with emotion, resting now in the pawn shop on Main Street.

She denies it all, other than the small handful you caught her with.

In a relationship built on betrayal, the loss of these keepsakes hurts the worst.

Put up security cameras, to guard your heart.
