"I'm who?"
A life full of trials and challenges sucks
When all you want to have is just a peaceful and normal life but what you have is just too messy and somewhat disappointing
When you feel that everyone is leaving you and you felt like they used you
Everyone leaves, no one actually stays because even your life is temporary
They always say that "if everyone left you, you have yourself"
Everyone leaves for a reason and most reason is for you to trust yourself
To love you, no matter who and what you are
Trusting yourself may sound easy to a lot of people but
How can I trust myself if I don't even know who I truly am?

"What?"
I was too stunned to say a word when I've heard what Mrs. Stranger-
I mean, SHE said
"Will you stop saying non-sense? If you don't want to tell me your name or who you are and why you're here, please don't joke around"
She look at me in the eye before standing up
She came back with a big mirror, a very familiar, vintage, and stranger mirror
She faced it to herself and after I knew it, her reflection was black and white
She then faced the mirror to me and I look at her face, looking very confused
"I am you" she whispered while looking at the mirror
At my shock, I saw the girl in the picture that was hanged on the wall of Mrs. Stranger's house
She was at the other side of the mirror, she moved the same way as I did
And before I knew it, Mrs. Stranger was gone
I looked around but ended up losing sight of her
I looked back at the mirror and found myself being creeped out and interested when I saw Mrs. Stranger, being my Reflection
"Who are you?" I shouted
"WHO AM I?" tears started to fall down my cheeks because of eagerness
Everything turned black after that and I haven't remember anything
I woke up in the same room and boy my head hurts so badly
I had a lot of missed calls and a lot of notifications in all my social media accounts
"Anak!" my mom shouted
I snapped out of being confused and found myself in a white colored place
There I saw my mom, my two bestfriends, and someone very familiar
"Prisha"
I noticed him by his deep voice, it felt warming and comforting
"CHRISTOPHER!"
It was Christopher, he's here right now!!
He smiled at me, looking so happy and satisfied
"How did you come here so fast?" I asked
"Well, I heard you weren't awake for two weeks so I booked a ticket immediately"
"Two weeks?"
I got confused with what he said and I still can't bleive that I was asleep for half a month and it only felt like five or one hour
"I found you in your room anak, you were sleeping next to the mirror, you were leaning on it, so I didn't moved you there but then I noticed that it has been eight hours and you were not yet awake so I check upstairs and you were still sleeping" mom said
Wow, that happened to me?
"I didn't expect that this would happened, I really don't, I thought it was just a one hour nap and then I woke up here in the hospital" I scratch my head
"Oh and there was a note attached in the mirror, it was in a envelope and the label said it was for you so I didn't bother to open it and waited for you to wake up so you can open and read it" said mom
She gave me the note in an envelope, it was a color brown envelope, the small one's
The envelope looks vintage and looks like it was written years, no, decades ago
As I've read the title it said, 'My Kristina' which got me thinking because the title sound and looked very familiar
'Dear Kristina,
      Greetings to my one and only Kristina. You're mind may be in circles as I will be announcing a tear-falling news to you. My love, I apologize with all my cherry-like heart that I, I cannot be with a goddess like you anymore for the skies have open and the Lord of lords are calling for my name. Do not take the blame for I, myself, chose this path and walked through it. I am aware that this will lead to nothing but pain, but I chose it because I want to protect you. Despite my reason, it is not your fault that I have done this, this is all me and I will take full responsibilities. We may not be able to walk through that aisle together but I promise, one day, I will take you through not just an aisle but a paradise where no one will ever break us. In another life, I will found you and will be with you. Wait for me Mì Vida, I love you.
Sincerely yours,
Leo
As I read the message, my heart beated fastly and what made me more confuse was the message having a 'to Precilla Rosaldo'
My head hurt and everything turned black again
There I caught myself waking up at my room, sleeping beside the mirror and leading on it
I look back and saw Mrs. Stranger, I mean, Kristina, looking back at me
She was my reflection and she looked like me so much that I even got confused with what body I was really in
"I'm sorry" said Kristina
I smiled at her and help her face touching her cheeks but basically, I was just touching a mirror
"It's fine, you did it to protect me and all I did was to pressure you and scare you. I'm the one who should apologize to you, you did everything just to keep me safe" I said
"You are closer to him than you think, he's been looking for you too"
