I'm being accused of stealing when I didnt do it!

Home More advice Jobs & Money

I work at a jewelry store as a second job. at the end of every shift the manager does bag checks to make sure no one is stealing jewelry. so I grabbed my purse before I left and when I opened it for her to check it, there was a $500 necklace in the pocket of my bag. I DIDNT PUT IT THERE!!! I would never steal from my job because its stupid, and I cant afford to lose either of my jobs. there is one girl who works there who is enemies with everyone else and I think she put the necklace in there, and now my manager really thinks I was trying to steal!! I was so shocked that I didnt even know what to say when she saw the necklace, and I kind of freaked out and couldnt get words out of my mouth. (I just get nervous easily for no reason) I dont know what to do or even where to start when I go talk to my manager about this tomorrow. I dont want to get fired!
