Precious Moment Figure Novels & Stories

The last two people to present their gifts were her oldest grandchildren, Rachel and James. James went first, “Grandma, here a Buddha statue made of gold and diamond-dust infused platinum. It is the most expensive platinum statue in the world. It helps improve one’s energy. I bought it at five million using my savings.” He was trying to sell the statue even if he knew it was a fake. He did not want to disappoint Grandma if she discovered the truth.

he suddenly whispered and quickly spun her around so that they were standing face to face, staring into each other's eyes. At that moment, everything went silent. She was too shocked to react, so she just stood there. She couldn't hear the cheering from the reporters or the flashes of light. For a brief moment which felt like forever, she was lost in his gray eyes. “Are those diamonds from the Timeless Collection?!” Someone yelled, breaking the moment. Zander frowned slightly and slowly released her. He turned to the reporters and smiled “It is an exclusive design. There is only one of this set in the world.” he replied, beaming with pride.

Later on, I bonded with Jaela who was cleaning up the living room while Jalen was out with his dad. She decluttered and was cleaning the window sills. I gently picked up a delicate figurine from the mantelpiece, admiring the intricate details etched into the surface. The figurine was a ballerina in a flowing tutu, her arms gracefully extended as if in the middle of a pirouette, and her face was painted with delicate strokes, her expression serene and peaceful. I admired the vibrant colors as I carefully dusted the figurine. Jaela smiled and was showing me something when my hand slipped and the figurine fell to the ground, shattering into a dozen pieces. I gasped in shock, my heart sinking as

“Oh, all right. What on earth could you have gotten me? And how much is missing from my bank account because of it?” “Very funny, and I didn’t raid your bank account for anything. Here, open it.” He handed her a beat up Styrofoam box. She opened it gingerly; an inexplicable feeling of excitement and dread washed over her as a figurine slowly emerged. A bronze statue appeared, about ten inches tall, of a beautiful woman in a long, flowing gown, holding a serpent in one hand and a shallow cup in the other. She had a star-shaped crown on her head from which a veil draped down. The stunning woman’s face remarkably mirrored Serena’s own. Her mouth dropped open, but no words came out.

The simile made her smile, though a tugging on her heart reminded her that dark things were never too far away. She tutted and ignored the negativity such a thing threatened. She placed her hand into the pockets of her jeans, and pulled out a small object. She carefully held the button in the palm of her hand, and was mesmerised by the power it held over her. This was the most precious gift. An acknowledgment of the sacrifice they had all made to thwart a great evil. The button represented stolen moments, borrowed time in which she could remember what it had taken to give something back to the world.

She refused to be the cowardly Elsie of the past. In her last life, she had not gotten anything for Justina and was worried about embarrassing herself. So, she asked April for help, and April gave her a bottle of perfume by a middle class brand. At one look, Justina broke the bottle in anger, and the shards ended up scarring Eldon's face. Thinking about this made her breathe fire. She ground her teeth to control her anger. Finally, the gift was revealed — a delicately crafted porcelain figurine, depicting a scene of a grandmother and grandchild, their faces filled with warmth and affection. The intricate details and the emotion captured in the piece were undeniable.
