My Brilliant Blue Ring

At the rock and mineral show, I wasn’t going to buy anything. Just look. Until I saw the unusual blue stone in a silver ring. You know me. I bought it. Two hours into wearing it, I looked down to admire the stone, But it was gone. The ring did not have a hole or a cavity or anything, just a raised top like a shelf. I looked around on the floor and saw a tiny piece of white paper shaped like My stone. I flipped it over. My shiny blue stone was a PHOTOGRAPH of a shiny blue stone, which Had been glued onto the tall shank of my ring. I stuck it on with Super Glue. I still wear this ring with the unusual blue stone, and I get many compliments also. Whether or not I share the secret, depends on how well I like you.
