The last word escaped from her lips in one frightened breath. The branch had broken, and she’d been sent tumbling into the water below, sending ripples through the brook. Her damp skirts billowed about beneath her, and she looked startled, but not afraid. She giggled and began to sing again.
The girl above her, whose legs had been tucked beneath her neatly, looked fascinated, making no move to help her. “When I said for death, I didn’t mean it like that.”
A sudden dawning of realization seemed to hit the other and she nodded once, before sinking down, down, with a sort of contented sigh and a stream of bubbles.
Delirium merely watched. She looked to one side and saw what she expected to see. There was a slender woman clad in all black looking back at her. She was standing up to her waist in the waters of the brook; standing in a place deep enough that she ought to have been up to her neck. She smiled.
“Long time no see, sis.”
“Yeah,” said Delirium distantly. She was looking deep into the depths of the brook, watching the last struggles of the pale figure at the bottom. “Oh! Here.” She held the lily between thumb and forefinger, hand outstretched, offering it. “This is for you.”
“Thanks,” said Death, “I’d better go and get her, huh?” She tucked the lily behind her ear.
“You probably should. Too bad. I liked her. She was… nice.”
“Well, nice people go. And mean people too. Everybody goes.” Delirium’s elder waved a hand dismissively. “See you around, anyway.”
Her younger sister nodded.
In barely the time it takes for one’s heart to beat twice, neither of them was there. Nor, indeed, was there much evidence at all to suggest that anyone had been there at all.
Eventually, a breeze gathered up, and the last handful of violets was scattered onto the surface of the water. Soon they to would disappear, and there wouldn’t even be that.
