Len's POV

I sat up excitedly in my bed, right when my mother's alarm had gone off downstairs. In just a few minutes, she was going to begin making breakfast for me and her. I hopped out from under my banana colored duvet and in front of an old and rusty mirror. I looked at my little self in my banana colored pajamas. I'm Len! I'm six! Today's my first day in first grade and I'm so excited!

I looked at the clothes in my closet and immediately grabbed my school uniform. I threw it onto myself before quickly brushing my teeth and spiking my blonde hair. I rushed down stairs and stuffed as much food into my mouth as possible, so I could get to school early. After my mom forced me to stay at the table for around twenty-five minutes, I pushed her into the car, where she finally decided to drive me down the road to my school.

Rin's POV

I rushed out from under my orange colored sheets and in front of an old rusty mirror my mom had put in my room for storage a long time ago. I looked at my orange colored pajamas and quickly tosses my uniform on before brushing my teeth and my shoulder-length, blonde hair. I topped it off with a big, white bow on top.

I rushed down stairs and was forced to sit with my mom and eat slowly. She, then, finally decided that she'd take me to my school down the road. I rushed my self out the gate, followed by my mother, and pushed myself into the red van. She turned the keys, and we were finally off.

My first day was almost perfect. I made two new friends named Hatsune Miku and Keito. I never got his last name... Anyway, we all stood outside next to our teachers, waiting for our parents to arrive. I held onto Miku-chan's hand tightly as I awaited for my mother to come pick me up. As much as I hated to admit it, I missed her. She was like my guardian. I felt safe around her. She always understood! Miku-chan wanted me to ask her about a sleepover. I was itching to get to ask her.

I saw the red van pulled into the road. My mother turned her head and waved excitedly to me. She looked so excited, that she wasn't looking ahead. A car, driving at full speed may I add, threw itself into the front of her car, and she nearly flew herself out the window. I watched as her face hit the steering wheel and the windows shattered onto her. I could see her eyes were open but they weren't blinking.

My face turned to mortal terror as police and teachers ran towards the wreck. I ran too. Not towards the wreck, but my ripped myself from Miku-chan's grasp and ran down the road towards my home which was sure to be unlocked. I ran through the gate, and through the front door. I slammed the door behind me and slid towards the ground. Tears were already rolling down my cheeks.

I knew a dead person when I saw one. I plummeted my face into my knees and let out a squeal. I could feel the pain in my throat. I could still hear everyone shouting in terror down the road. All I could hear was my mother in my mind.

What is wrong, my darling?

I love you, my dear Rin-chan!

I promise I'll be here in the morning...

I cried at the last memory. That wasn't too long ago. I was too afraid to sleep alone, but my mother showed me that everything was fine my promising to let me wake up to her every morning. She wasn't there anymore. I pushed myself up and ran up the attic where I lived. I slammed the door shut and stared into my mother's old mirror.

I remember when I got this mirror... My mother's voice echoed through the room. I got it from a strange, old lady who claimed it to be old and valuable. She said it was magical. She said it could grant any wish. But I never believed her, so I never wished upon it. Only one wish may be granted though, so be careful. It's yours now.

I thought about that... I know my mother was a good person. She didn't deserve a place as terrible as earth. It was full of mean and terrible people. I knew that she was in a place she called heaven. She said it was beautiful and filled with streets of gold as well as unlimited happiness. She was in good hands. So I touched the mirror's glass and said, "I wish... I had someone to take care of me."

I pulled my hand away as my imaged faded. That's odd, mirror's are supposed to reflect you. But it reflected someone else.

Len's POV

I cried into my sleeve as I remembered my mother's words. She had been killed today, because some idiot drove into her while waving stupidly at their child. She had said that this mirror is magical and can grant only on wish. I places the tips of my fingers on it and said, "I wish I had someone who understood me."

My reflection disappeared. Could it be working? Mirror's are supposed to reflect, right? This one reflected someone else. I looked behind me and back at the mirror. No one was behind me. The girl was exactly as tall as me, was wearing a uniform like mine, but with a skirt, and she had shoulder-length golden hair topping off with a white bow.

I looked at her. I was hoping for someone who could actually follow me and talk to me. Not someone I can only talk to in my room.

"H-hello?" I finally managed to spit out. Her eyes were puffy and red. She looked as if she had been crying for as long as me. I felt sorry for her. I wondered what had happened. "Why are-are you crying?" I asked her, hoping not to sound rude.

She looked and played with her thumbs, still in surprise of what had happened. "M-my mother was in a car accident today..." She said as my eyes widened. I told her how that happened to my mother as well. "Wow..." She sighed after my story.

She was very pretty. She over lapped her toes in her shoes out of pure shyness. She continued to look down at her feet and thumb wrestle herself. She would reach up as rub her cheek every so often. She finally let out a sniff and looked up at me.

"M-my name's Rin." She greeted as she rubbed her red cheek. I smiled softly. I wished that I could reach out and hold her and comfort her. I wanted her to feel safe and secure, but I couldn't do so from this side of the mirror. Her sadness reminded me of my own and let a tear escape my eyes. She tilted her head.

"My name's Len..." I muttered so quietly that it was almost inaudible. She could hear me though. She set her hand on the glass and let loose a sad smile. Her teeth were a pearly white. Her lips were a light pink. She was truly beautiful.

Rin's POV

I forced a smile onto my lips. I looked a Len-san. I saw tear roll down his red cheeks. He was the exact same height as me with spikey, golden hair. He was wearing a uniform much like mine, but with pants. He seemed to study my features. His eyes rolled past my face and met at his feet. He looked at my smile.

A smile soon formed of his face as well. His teeth were a bright white. He seemed to brighten up a little more. We sat and talked for hours until we went to bed exactly at 9:30 P.M. like our mother's would have told us. We would occasionally whisper to each other about what we were thinking.
