The beginning

This is Audelia's room.

I gained my conscience with my head pounding.
What happened and where am I? I feel cool surface under me, as I got up with my hands in my throbbing head, steadying my head. I held a table to steady myself. As I gained understanding, I saw I was in a room without windows, it looked very much like the interrogation room at the police station in our city. I knew because I had been there post my sister's death. But what am I doing here? The last time I remember I was at school. Then I felt cold hands touch me. I jumped and turned to encounter the same face that has been starring in my nightmares, and I believe Is responsible for what happened to my sister. As I kept trying to get away and find an outlet. Screaming, " help!!!!! Help!!! ". Trying to find something anything to protect myself. I Pushed myself into a corner. Trying to get as much space I could physically put. But he kept coming near.

I had been nervous about this talk, ever since I learned I was wrong a year ago. Omg! How could I have been so careless. How could I have believed that stupid girl? And to think A. J repeatedly told me that she wasn't lying.
I felt guilty and absolutely horrified about what she is going through and letting her go through it, and doing what I did. But this isn't about us, this is about her sister, I don't know if what I know will help, but "I need to do this" I had told myself.
But when as I started to tell her. She fainted in the Headmistress's office. I panicked as I saw her blackout. The principal called the infirmary. She was taken to the nurse. So here I am thoroughly guilty. Well, I deserve this. But them she stared shaking, I shouted, "nurse!! Nurse!! Something is wrong". I was officially terrified. But the nurse said that she is just under stress and was having nightmares (doesn't make her shaking any less dangerous). I was lucky she was a kind and patient woman. I offered to drop Audelia home, but the nurse said that." I have called her parents, she is mentally exhausted and needs rest.". It was already lunch. So she told me to leave otherwise I would get in trouble. And I reluctantly left.

(Audelia pov)
As I waited for him to strike me. But the blow never came. He crouched and said, " you and I are going to meet again ".
I said with a shaking voice, " I hope not".
He said, " I will make sure of it. You'll see". He had a hard almost killer like the expression on his face.
"you are going to listen to me carefully, you need to find that mirror.", he said pointing to a mirror in the corner I didn't see before,
" How are you doing and why? " I asked. " this is your dream, I am not doing anything and as for why you will find out soon enough," he whispered.
Then I said," is it real or is it happening in my head.".
He gave out a little chuckled as though amused by my question and then he said, " of course it's all happening in your head, but that doesn't have to mean it isn't real.".
Those were the last words I heard then everything went black.

"sweetheart! Wake up darling" that was my mom's voice, what is she doing at school

 " wake-up, buddy, your mother and I are really worried." rang my dad's voice in my ears

" I think in our own grief, we neglected our own child, Mich." " God I feel awful". Said my mom in a teary tone.
Oh, mom, it's not your fault.
As I sat, my head still throbbing in my hands. My mother had a relieved expression on her face.

Now here I am sitting in my room, wondering what my dream meant and what mirror, was he talking about. When I was startled out of my dream by a knock on the door.
