Younger/Older Sister/La Soubrette

YOUNGER SISTER 
Last week Mother almost caught us... 

OLDER SISTER 
It was already light when we got back to our house. 

BAAL 
I suppose pretty soon you'll be running around after me and crying, too. 

YOUNGER SISTER 
Oh, no, Mr. Baal! 

OLDER SISTER 
We're ready! 

YOUNGER SISTER 
I'm scared. 

OLDER SISTER 
It's not the first time. 

YOUNGER SISTER 
But it's the middle of the day!  He can see us...! 

OLDER SISTER 
It's not the second time, either.

YOUNGER SISTER 
You've got to get undressed, too! 

OLDER SISTER 
I am! 

BAAL 
When you're finished, you can come over here.  Then it will be dark again. 

YOUNGER SISTER 
You go first. 

OLDER SISTER 
I went first the last time! 

YOUNGER SISTER 
No you didn't! 

OLDER SISTER 
Yes I did! 

BAAL 
All right!  Both at once! 

OLDER SISTER  
But it's so light in here... 

BAAL 
How's the weather? 

OLDER SISTER 
Nice.  It's spring. 

YOUNGER SISTER 
The sun is warm... 
(Pause.) 

BAAL 
All right.  Do you want to or not. 
(Silence.) 

OLDER SISTER 
A girl drowned herself this morning.  Johanna something-or-other. 

YOUNGER SISTER 
In the river.  Ooooh!  Icky.
 
BAAL 
Does anyone know why? 

OLDER SISTER 
Not really, but everybody's talking... 

YOUNGER SISTER 
She stayed out all night! 

BAAL 
She didn't go home this morning? 

YOUNGER SISTER 
No, someone saw her jump in the river.  They haven't found her body yet. 

BAAL 
Still floating... 

YOUNGER SISTER  
What's wrong? 

OLDER SISTER 
Nothing.  I feel cold... 

LA SOUBRETTE 
He only does it for that cunt he lives with.  I think 
he's a genius.  So does Loopy.  Loopy imitates him so much 
it's disgusting.
