Prompt:
I woke up to hear knocking on glass. At first, I thought it was the window until I heard it come from the mirror again.
I woke up to the sound of knocking. Instinctively I looked to the window of my dorm, but there was no one there. Slowly, I turned my head and looked at the full length mirror across the room. I sighed with relief as I saw nothing but my own reflection. But then, my so-called reflection jumped out of bed and walked up to the mirror. I could barely catch my breath as I too rose and stood in front of the mirror. That’s when I realized my “reflection” was wearing different pajamas. And she stood in a slightly different way. I opened my mouth to scream but all that came out was a whisper, “Sophie?” The girl in the mirror nodded and smiled at me. I began to sob as I pulled my blanket tighter around myself.
Sophie was my twin sister and best friend.
Sophie died in a car crash ten years ago.
