Chapter 3 - Dusty Mirror

And so, her set up adventure was finally here. With a new mansion, with a new whole area to explore. The little girl, Nelly, wanted nothing more.

One day, when the house was empty, and no single soul was around to entertain her wild force, she decided to stay in her room and play her dolls.

"Oh what a boring afternoon, don't you agree Ms. Ols? "

She asked in a voice pretending to be of a teenager, while holding a little make up toy, with a wig, and pretty clothes.

The doll, nodded her head, and by doing so, her wig fell, and got messed up on the floor.

"Now look what you did, you dirtied your prettiest wig!"

Exclaimed the child and quickly picked it up from the carpeted ground. With a swift move she headed to her bathroom, where a bathtub lay, with a sink right next to the toilet stool. Nelly, turned the tap with stream-y cold water, and began washing the dolls, dirty cluster. Her eyes were locked onto the splashy and refreshing bubbles of the shampoo, that she didn't see her reflection, staring her from, what seemed to be another room. Once the gaze was felt, she looked up…and, saw herself, in the mirror that she didn't even notice yet. He blonde hair was perfectly combed, while her green-ish eyes, looked like freshly trimmed grass. Her lips moved, and the edges formed into a smile, and she soon realized she wasn't the one that was making that gesture with her mouth. The already washed hair of the doll, slipped from her little fingers and splashed into the bowl in the sink. But when she looked up again, her reflection was no longer present. In its place, laid a thick layer of dust. What frighten her more, were the shapes written, by finger, saying:

"Welcome home, at last. "
