whispers of a forgotten soul

I stood infront of the mirror staring at my own reflection. My name is gone . The graveyard is gone. The room still felt cold as if it remembers what happened but the mirror doesn't. I moved towards the mirror and ran my fingers over it half expecting it to ripple

" Did l imagine it" l asked my self but deep down my heart knows l have witnessed it.

I closed the windows and went to bed. The room still felt cold even though the windows were shut. I kept looking at the mirror hoping eventually l could see the same view again but l didn't. I let out a heavy breath to calm myself down which formed clouds in the air.

I looked at the time on the clock which was on my right-side but only minutes had passed but it felt like hours. I closed my eyes to sleep but l couldn't stop thinking about the boy's eyes. They were full disappointed and hopelessness.

I went to school the following morning. This time l had come early to revise my note . I took out my note book in my bag and placed it on my desk. I zoned out while looking at the window , when l suddenly l had my deskmate's voice l came back to my senses.

"That creepy are you fine ??, she said while looking at my notebook.

I was shocked to see that l had drawn the graveyard scene without realizing it. " Awwww this.... isn't it beautiful , l saw it in the animation and challenged my self to draw it ....am l not just perfect ! " l said to her with a cheerful voice. That was the only way l could make her stop thinking that am weird but infact deep down l know l am one .

The day went on so fast and it was time to go home. I rushed to my room when l got there hopping to witness something different this time . When l reached my room , there was nothing , everything felt and seemed normal.

I changed into my pajamas and went to bed , praying this time l will sleep peaceful than yesterday. I heard someone calling me . I wake up thinking it was a nightmare, suddenly in disbelief l saw the mirror fogs up again with no reason. It called my name again.

This time l took the courage to stand up and went straight to the mirror. There was nothing on it so l started writing " who are you" . I was shocked when it replied back with " Graves don't forget " . I started panicking and took three step backwards. I was thrilled with fear inside me, over what l just witnessed before me .

I had my phone buzzing, l went to pick it up only to see a message written

" You saw me "

I stared at the screen and then another message appeared again

" Now l see you too".
