Okay. Here goes.
The brooch
Chapter one. Visitors
=====
Sid gazed out the window, tears streaming down her cheeks. Owen had left
her for another woman. How could he? He was married to her! To her!
Sidney Hansen! She had gone so far as to revert to her maiden name.
"May I come in?" The ghostly voice was gentle and rich. A young woman and
a girl were standing at the door. They were dressed in old-fashioned
clothes, and wore cloaks that fastened with individual glass brooches. The
girl's was a grayish-blue oval, the color richer in the center and fading
outwards. The woman's was a white star with a center of a rich smoky
aquamarine.
"Yes, yes, of course. I am sorry. What are you doing in this part of
town?"
"Well, as we cannot be harmed anymore, we have decided to see you. Do you
not know who we are?"
"No. I'm afraid I don't know who you are."
"Well, no matter. You need not know our names as of yet. I must commend
you though. You have made my husband so very happy. He can now think of
us without shedding tears. For that, I thank you."
"Who? Who are you?" Sid asked
"Have you not yet guessed?"
"No."
"Well, you shall soon take my place. Here. These are now justly yours."
The other woman removed her cloak and brooch, and handed them to Sid. The
cloak felt like water woven into form, and the green glass flickered like
aquamarine flames. She then helped the red-haired woman to slip into the
cloak, throwing it about her shoulders. "It fits flawlessly. Here." She
then pinned the glass brooch onto the cloak, clasping it about her throat.
"Take this. It is for your own daughter. Not mine. She has had it long
enough. It is not wise to give the weight of the dead to garments meant
for the living. Farewell, Sidney Hansen. We may yet meet again..." With
that, the girl and the woman faded into thin air, and Sid was left with the
girl's cloak and brooch in her hands.

you a major clue!!
