Madame Loisel felt emotional. Should she speak
to her? Yes, of course. And now that she had paid,
she would tell her all. Why not?
She went up to her, "Good morning, Jeanne.
The other, astonished to be addressed so familiarly
by this common woman, did not recognise her. She
stammered:
"But - Madame - I don't know. You must have
made a mistake.
"No, I am Mathilde Loisel."
Her friend uttered a cry, "Oh! ... my poor Mathilde,
how you've changed!
"Yes, I have had some hard times since I last saw
you, and many miseries ... and all because of you! ..."
"Me? How can that be?"
"You remember that diamond necklace that you
lent me to wear to the Ministry party?"
"Yes. Well?"
"Well, I lost it."
"What do you mean? You brought it back."
"I brought you back another exactly like it. And
it has taken us ten years to pay for it. It wasn't easy
for us, we had very little. But at last it is over, and
I am very glad."
Madame Forestier was stunned.
"You say that you bought a diamond necklace to
replace mine?"
“Yes; you didn't notice then? They were very
similar."
And she smiled with proud and innocent pleasure.
Madame Forestier, deeply moved, took both her
hands.
"Oh, my poor Mathilde! Mine was an imitation!
It was worth five hundred francs at most! ..." . find similar meaning from the passage 1) showing closeness.2)very shocked or surprised.3) to speak with difficulty or say something with unusual causes
