Episode 10 – The Door With No Handle
Writer: Nivi
By now, me and Arifin know one thing for sure —
nothing connected to the Mirror Case behaves like a normal object.
Today we went to the abandoned research building linked to Project Mirror.
The place looked like a hospital mixed with a horror maze.
Dust everywhere.
Dead silence.
Lights flickering even though the power was supposed to be cut.
We followed the blueprint and reached a strange room.
Room M–4.
It had no handle.
No lock.
Just a solid metal door with a small slit at the bottom.
Arifin: “Who builds a door like this?”
I tried pushing it.
Nothing.
Then — the silver key in my pocket became warm again.
So I dropped it near the slit…
And the metal door clicked by itself.
It slowly slid open.
Inside?
A single huge mirror.
Floor to ceiling.
Perfectly clean.
No dust.
No cracks.
But the room smelled like old perfume.
Like someone was living there.
I stepped closer.
My reflection looked normal…
until Arifin came next to me.
In the glass, Arifin’s reflection was smiling.
But the REAL Arifin wasn’t.
She whispered,
“Nivi… why am I smiling?”
Before I could answer, the reflection of “Arifin” raised her hand and touched the glass.
The real Arifin didn’t move.
Then the mirror fogged from the inside.
A sentence appeared:
“ONLY ONE OF YOU LEAVES.”
My heart stopped.
The lights flickered —
and the reflection Arifin suddenly looked behind us.
Slow.
Warning.
Me and Arifin turned around…
A shadow figure stood at the doorway.
Closer than ever.
Clearer than before.
A woman’s silhouette.
Long hair.
Tilted head.
Watching us.
I grabbed Arifin’s hand.
“We’re leaving. NOW.”
We ran out of the room, and the door slammed shut behind us, sealing itself.
The silver key turned cold again in my pocket.
Arifin was breathing hard.
“Nivi… what does she want?”
I looked at the sealed door.
“She wants one of us.”
And deep down…
I think I already know which one.
