Oma Opal

"My grandmother was a real gem of a woman. A diamond, though her name was Opal. After I proposed to Sophie, Oma Opal never left her side. She was a bright woman and glittered spectacularly on Sophie's finger, set in that silver band. When I say my grandmother was a diamond, I mean it."

So begins Oma Opal, a short story spanning multiple generations. It's the story of a grandmother and her unusual last request: upon her death, she is to become a diamond and be used by her grandson as an engagement ring.

Oma Opal is a touching tale of love and loss... and just a little bit of quirk.
