Chapter one: Alice through the looking glass
She could say she had an okay life. She had a nice own place in the centre of the city. Not very big, but fine enough for a student. She had enough money and a nice part time job at a restaurant. She was doing well at her studies even though she had lost
her interest in them. She had some friends and a quite relaxed life. She didn't have very good contact with her mother because of old times but she was used to it. Her stepfather certainly wasn't making that any better. Her own father had died, sadly.
But that happened already eight years ago so it wasn't really a big deal anymore even though she still missed him. She spent her free time with friends or she took some alone time. She liked gaming on her ps4 and watching movies. She was also fan
of Harry Potter. She liked the books and the movies. Yes, she could say she was doing okay. She even met a very interesting guy whom she was dating now. And yet she wasn't feeling really well for the last few weeks. For the past week it only seemedto
become worse. She didn't really feel ill, but just very uncomfortable, like she was very anxious but without a clear reason. She had a feeling she somehow was forgetting an appointment and that she should be somewhere else. When these feeling really
started to bother her she kept checking her calendar but she couldn'tfind out what she was forgetting. She kept going on with her studies and her job but she couldn't lose the feeling. She even went to see a doctor but he said it was probably
stress from finishing her projects at school. Yet she didn't really believe the doctor because the feeling was getting worse. This was not logical because she even had finished a few projects so the feeling should decrease. It was on a Saturday morning
that she woke up and felt worse than ever. She felt like someone was asking her everyday for something very important but she couldn't do it. Like she was doing the wrong thing because faith wanted her somewhere else. But she didn't know what to do.
So she just got up and went on with her day. She went to work and started preparing the restaurant for the evening. She was just setting the last tables when her manager walked up to her: 'Could you please check the mirror in the other room? It keeps
getting out of balance and I don't want it to fall down when guests are eating.'
'Of course, I'll do that when I'm finished with this.' she said. So ten minutes later she walked towards the large mirror in the other room and saw that it indeed hang lower on one side. She tried to put it straight but in a few seconds it got back to
hanging just a bit lower on the right side. She didn't know what to do so she decided to take it of the wall and see if something was wrong on the other side. She took it of, but overwhelmed with the weight of it, the mirror started falling towards
her. She braced herself for the impact but it never came. Instead, she disappeared through the mirror.
