If I could have kept my Grandmother instead of her necklaces I would've, but I loved them just the same. They were beautiful, the necklaces. The first was broken. I don't know how, I guess it was from some story she never got the chance to tell me. It was marvelous though, with it's unique colors. The second one was her favorite though. It was a beautiful sea foam blue, in the shape of an elephant. It hung on a gold chain. Personally, it was my favorite too. It reminded me so much of her, she loved elephants. I remember her wearing the necklace too, on a day where we went to lunch together. We talked and laughed for a long time, and although it was just a small day to some people, for me it was a day I'll never forget. When we had gotten home after lunch, that's when she gave me her necklace, since she knew how much I adored it. I haven't been able to take it off since. Even after I lost my Grandmother, which was one of the hardest things I had to go through, she never feels far away. I wear her elephant necklace, which falls right over my heart, and it almost feels like we're together again.

really nice story, allows most readers to feel empathy because a lot of people lose someone close to them
Great description!
