The Hand Mirror

With That She Was Happy

In the empty lanes of Toragay, where no one goes is an antique shop

The shop is filled with all the things that have no connection to each other

These were kept on individual shelfs for nothing else was in the shop

Well

There was a Mirror aswell...

A small hand mirror

Nothing was special about these objects so the citizens didn't venture in this shop

Not they'd be able to ever come here anyways

She doesn't sleep
It's night but she can't sleep
She hasn't slept a wink since she was born
She wants to
Desperately
Everyone is allowed this break from problems
But not her, Fate or Gods whoever rules this world won't let her
She doesn't even think anything, what should she think about?
Wallow in Self Pity?
She has a loving father, even though she is usually avoided by him for her 'Abnormality'
She has been promised a fiancé by him
She hasn't met him yet, maybe he will sympathize with her?

"I don't want to just lay...even though there's nothing I can do..." She gets up and walks to her mirror and picks it up
"I don't have anything to do anyway, I can't even leave my room, they might wake up..."
She sits on a stool and starts combing her hair

Long Green hair, people say she's prettier than most of her friends
She brushes her hair, ties it into twintails, as she's done since she was a child

Always having an air of sadness around her, she doesn't know what she'll do
That fiancé will love her?
She's not sure
Her father will fully accept her?
She's not sure
Will she even be someone who can be called a human?

Her own reflection won't she her who she truly is, instead it shows a boy with blue hair and eyes...

WAIT

"Who are you?!" Margarita backed up, completely startled by his sudden appearance

"Please don't be startled! I'll try to tell you everything why I am here..." The boy answered

"No...I won't be listening to what you want to say!" She held her mirror like a weapon ready to smash it on the table

The boy knew what she was about to do and he was terrified of whatever outcome it would draw "I BEG YOU PLEASE DON'T DESTROY THIS MIRROR!!"

"Then talk, why did you come here?" She lowered the mirror to hold it normally but held it tight, this boy had just shown up from nowhere and was yelling, it could wake her parents up...they'd know that once again she couldn't sleep....

But for now she had to make sure she knew who this boy was

He didn't seem entirely unfamiliar, something deep in her consciousness told her to trust him

"I can't tell you who I am or where I'm from because my mother says that it's dangerous that I expose my identity to anyone so I can't tell you much..."

'I WILL BREAK THIS MIRROR'
"I won't break the mirror but tell me why you're here in the first place? And how?"

The boy was silent for a while, "I'm not allowed to leave this place...I found this mirror here and it's said it can help one communicate with other people they're connected with and...it brought me to you..." The boy looked sad saying such

'Is he also sad...'
"Hey, if you can't tell where you are from...at least tell me your first name, I promise I won't tell anyone..." She smiled at him trying to gain his trust, she didn't have any malicious intentions, in fact she didn't know what she would do with that information.
