"Oh, I would if I had a single match", answered the second one.
The girl took her friend's - oh, what friend? - hand and held fiercely, ferociously. Both could feel the breeze coming up from the borders. Somewhere ahead... what? The things were singing almost as if they could feel their end was close.
"Did you ever wonder why we were left alone?"
"Oh, screw you and your philosophy, we should just get out..."
"No! I never punished you from dreaming, don't break my heart now. I'm so close... look at how close I am to put and end to the waiting!"
The black-eyed girl slapped the other, then again, then again, everytime she smiled and looked defiantly to the winding borders of the Everything.
"Give me time.", said the blue-eyed girl, "I'll do it".
"You're mad"
"How can you say that? Didn't you ever dream of escaping?"
"Not like this... this is..."
She couldn't say it. Maybe or simply because the thing ahead was not something made to be explained, just to be... known. And there they stood for a long time, a long night, a long life. When both girls woke up, none could tell who was the other one or what was the misery shown in the sad and black figure across the Borders.
It was the limit of the universe, and there stood a billion angels singing their prayers with tears in their grey eyes.
