john + rose - 100 word novel

John and Rose walked up out of the village. The path went through a narrow valley with a stream to one side. Ahead a man walked toward them. John stepped sideways heavily into the stream and said ‘He is walking on the water,’ then dropped to his knees. Rose laughed then hesitated. She walked a couple of steps and stopped. She half turned. John knelt in the stream with his arms at his side and his head at a slight angle. She hurried back and knelt in front of him making a strange sound she could not stop or control.
