SETTING: A cemetery with rows upon rows of gravestones.

AT RISE: CASSIA and HAZEL are standing by a grave marked with WILLOW's name.


HAZEL: We weren't there to save Willow...

CASSIA: Even though we could have.

HAZEL: But how we helped Olive, I feel like we made it up to her.

CASSIA: The mistakes we made with her, we will never make again.

HAZEL: Even though she may have felt worthless at the end of her life...

CASSIA: She taught us such a valuable lesson. We love you, Willow. We always will.

HAZEL: I hope you can forgive us for not being there for you.

(CASSIA and HAZEL set a single olive branch at the foot of the grave and leave. As they leave, WILLOW appears at the edge of the stage, in the nightclothes she wore before. A slight smile crosses her face as her friends depart, and she disappears.)
