Chapter 20 - How Lucky

I wish I could pass this mirror wall and see what's beyond. I wish I could see your world. No matter how I look at you. Despite, countless flaws, I can't help but admire you. You are to me a precious a gift. You're like a diary to me but an even better version. Instead, the best. You always have time. You don't look for excuses and you're always there, when I need you. I want to pat your head but there's always this stupid mirror between us. I think you're better than a diary. I don't have to write or say anything. I just have to imagine and I know that you know you know it.

This mirror is the only barrier between us. Unlike others ( humans ). Humans have no visible barriers among them. Yet, there are countless invisible barriers that keep them apart from each other. I think those barriers are not even worth mentioning.", Khalid says with disgust.

" But for us, even our minds are connected, as of soulmates in fairy tales.", saying this, his mood brightens up.

"You're a friend, you're someone who found me when it felt like everyone had left me." Khalid turns his side. He remains silent for a moment, as if he was trying to recall something.

"I know of a disorder.", He speaks up." According to what I know, patients of that disorder have multiple personalities, at least two." He continues thinking. He removes his hand from the mirror and lies straight, facing the roof.

" How lucky.", he says.

Khalid starts to think " they can change between personalities and talk among themselves. It's like having two souls in a body.", he smiles again and says " how cool. Right ! ", looking at his reflection and then again back towards the roof.

Hid hand raises in air. As if he's trying to grab something. " I wish you hadn't found me.", he says moving his arm down.
