In the quiet stillness of my bedroom , a reflection stared back . It was not the one I knew, but it was the one I craved for. This reflection.....this girl in the mirror was different . Her features were impossibly smooth, and her eyes held an unwavering boldness mixed with unconcern, almost imperceptible air of perfection emanated from her. She was a flawless image, yet a chillingly unfamiliar presence.
This wasn't a trick of light, a fleeting distortion. This was a persistent, unsettling reality. She's not going any time soon because I've placed her in a place of no escape... myself.
This is the story of how a seemingly ordinary girl, caught in the mundane routine of her life, stumbled upon a life that would shatter her perception of reality. It's the tale of a chilling discovery – a perfect version staring back from the depths of my own reflection, a silent promise of something unattainable, and a terrifying secret that whispered of a hidden truth.
I'm all in my head trying to do everything right.. not making mistakes that would hurt the people that look up to me or the people that I look up to.
My name is Stacy, and I just graduated from NYC ( New York University) as a business administrator. It has always been my dream to work in a company officially with my perfect suit and tie, well ironed. Hahaha, I meant that has been the dream of my parents. My dream was to be like the girl in the mirror. Care free and perfect for everyone's expectations.
Today, I'm going to my dream company..... scratch that, my parents' dream company, for an interview, I hope I get the job, I still hope I don't. Follow me as we see what the day has for me.
