The story is about gold jewelry; the one worn wore on forehead which is called "Maang Tikka" in south Asian region and also about gold bracelet.

• In 2019, my father become financially stable and increased his business to another city from Peshawar. We launched a shop and started business in Lahore, it was a cloth shop with branded clothes for females. My father's first and old business was located in Peshawar and he extended it to Lahore for future financial needs of ours and so that we can live a better life in future but God's plans were different.

• Covid-19 started and start spreading from China to all over the world. It was a deadly virus and affected every country, no country was safe from it and it spread very quickly in shorter time. It came to Pakistan in end of 2019 and start spreading everywhere. It affected many businesses and hit our country's economy. It also affect other country's economy as well. A lot of people lost their life due to the virus and everyone was kept and went into quarantine.

• Our business was also badly hit with it, we all went into quarantine. Our new business was hit badly because in start-up of businesses you have to spent money on business products, shops infrastructure and also on advertisements. All the shops went off and the workers from the shop returned and the branded clothes created a big loss for us. We loss a huge sum of money. My younger was playing the leading role in the shop, my father was handling the Peshawar one and I was studying.

• After that the virus continued and killed many people. We were living in our houses and the virus was spreading, we were declining financially. My mother gave me her bracelet so that I can sell it and get some amount with it for the food and other expenses. Later in 2021, the 3rd layer started and we again got quarantine.

• This time my mother gave me her wedding's valuable jewelry made with gold, it was given to her by her mother as a gift. She gave it to me to sell it in a gold shop so that we can get cash for further food and expenses. It was a precious one and beautiful one. When I was leaving my home, I was very sad because my mother was selling her memorable and valuable asset. It was made and designed with hand, it was an old design from the 19's; it was designed in 1998.

I took a photo of it and stored it in my phone's gallery so that I can buy it when I earn my own money

• I went to my friend's shop. My friend is having his own gold shop, they migrated their business from Dubai to Pakistan. I was unhappy to sell it but I couldn't do anything about it because we needed money. I sold it to him and told him that I have stored a photo of this jewelry with myself and in future I will come here to design a new one like this and will buy it for my mother on any price.
