THE LOOKING GLASS
When I was little my mum bought me a looking glass it was the most beautiful looking glass I had ever seen it was golden round the edges it was so beautiful little did I know it would change my life forever.My mum had just got back from the super market when she called my name and that’s when my nightmare began.
She pulled out a beautiful mirror it was perfect for me as a little girl all i wanted to do was play dress up and look at myself all day long.one night I was getting ready for bed when I heard a voice calling me I thought it was my mum I was about to stand up when I glanced at the mirror I saw a girl about my age in the mirror smiling it was not a nice smile it was an evil smile I felt a chill run down my spine I looked again and she was gone I dropped the mirror and ran to bed and pulled the covers up to my head then I fell into an uneasy sleep.In the morning I told my mum about she laughed and said it was a dream I tried to protest but she didn’t listen to me so I gave up later that day as I was getting ready for bed when I glanced at the mirror and saw the girl again another chill ran down my spine but I overcame it I wish I hadn’t payed any attention to that stupid mirror.I saw the little girl she was still smiling that evil smile before I had time to scream she told me she would grant me three wishes and she would get only one in wish in return as a little child I agreed not thinking of the consequences so I wished for a new bag,candy and a new pair of shoes when I finished my wishes she said it was her turn to wish she wished for us to change places I was shocked I became scared I watched as she began to transform into me then something out of the ordinary happened I don’t know how but I found myself in the mirror I saw a girl that looks like me but isn’t me walk out of my room.The next day I was sold to another person whose daughter is my age tonight is my night of revenge I am offering her three wishes but in return I’ll have one………….
