Reflection
#WritcoStoryPrompt79
"Whether you like it or not, you have to deal with family, school, or work responsibilities, no matter what!" A girl said to herself while looking at her exhausted reflection in the mirror.
she was trying to tame her unruly hair, she was trying to conceal her dark circles under her eyes.
Her pale skin was becoming more pale with each second passing by. Her chubby cheeks were becoming hollow, her lips were chapped.
her hands were shaking because she was constantly writing her assignments, he legs are heavy because of the weight that she is carrying.
All her musings stopped when suddenly her reflection changed. The tired face was now glowing, her chubby cheeks were back and they were blushing pink making her look more cute, her dark circles were gone, her eyes were shining, her hair were tied into a beautiful ponytail, her lips were luscious and pink.
her hands were not shaking anymore infact they were dancing at the rhythm of the woolen thread she was holding.
Her feets were curling and jumping as if they have got a boost of happiness.
she was touching herself trying to see if she was dreaming.

A chill ran through her spine when she felt that her lips were still chapped but hed reflection said otherwise.

Those lips started moving even though she was not speaking but her reflection was murmuring something she brought her right ear nearer to the mirror and the reflection spoke with a gentle voice "If you want to make this reflection real, tire yourself with the work that you love doing not the work that you feel obligated to.
