The Reflection

Chapter 1- The Cracked Mirror

It was the day before my next photo shoot so I had to get ready. I decided to wear a Sparkly Long purple dress.

I looked in the big long mirror and posed. I decided to use those poses for my photo shoot! I stared at my small mirror looking at my reflection. I thought I looked pretty so I went down stairs to show my mother.

She loved it and said I look amazing, but then she said I need to stop wearing so much makeup.

I cannot believe she said that! She basically just called me ugly WITH makeup! Or was she just saying I should go natural? The point is that she called me ugly!

I stomped upstairs and looked in the mirror again.

Maybe I was wearing too much makeup...

I kept starring at the mirror trying to figure out if my mother was right, then it happened..

My mirror broke. Into two halves, One halve was my face with makeup and the other halve was my face without makeup.

I screamed! I was terrified as to how that happened.
Did I do something wrong? Does my mirror not like me? Is my mirror trying to tell me something? I surely had so many questions.

My mom came running up the stairs and asked me,

"Isabella why in the world are you screaming."

I said,

"Mom, look!" I showed her the cracked mirror.

My mom said,

"Isabella how could you break that expensive mirror that's absurd!"

"But Mom don't you see what's on the mirror ", I said

"Isabella it's a crack I can see it."

"No mom can't you see the two halves!"

"Isabella I only see a cracked mirror! Now stop playing these games with me!"

"But mom-" (I had been cut off my mother speaking)

"I don't wanna hear a word."

She slammed the door and stomped down the stairs.

I started to cry. How could my mother not see it? Or can no one see it besides me?

I put the clues together and figured out no one besides me could see the mirror.

How will I be able to fix this? I mean it's a cracked somehow cursed magical mirror so I don't think I can fix it.

I know! I'll facetime my friends and show them! I'm sure they'll understand!

I called all my friends and non of them saw what I saw and some didn't even answer!

I decided it not best to just throw the mirror away. That way me or anyone else won't see it.

I decided that it was time for bed so I went to sleep.
