    "Did anyone else see her?"
    He shook his head
    They looked at each other in silenceShe was amazed at how calm she was, how steady her hands were upon the comforterAnd in that silence a truth came home to her, one she had probably known for a long time"You have only been staying for me, in any case," she saidHe had seen a riselka"You knew?"
    "Yes," she lied
    "I'm sorry," he said, looking at herBut she knew that this would be easier for him if she were able to hide how new and deathly cold this actually was for herA gift; perhaps the black prada leather handbag last gift she would give him
    "Don't be sorry," she murmured, her hands lying still, where he could see them Truly, she did, though her heart was a wounded thing, a bird with one wing only, fluttering in small circles to the groundIt was an enormous, frightening thing, she knew

    "So will you," she said
    "And so will you," Baerd echoed"Oh, Dia, what will you do?" No one else but her father ever called her thatStupidly it was the name that nearly broke her control"I don't know," she said honestlyThere is money for a while yet if I'm careful She saw his stricken look and moved to quell it"You are not to worry about it, BaerdListen to me: you have just seen a riselka!
