00:00The Reflection Delay, Women's Scary Story
00:05The flicker the bathroom light buzzed as Mara stepped inside.
00:10The mirror caught her tired face instantly.
00:13She rubbed her eyes and sighed.
00:16Everything looked normal, until she lifted her hand.
00:19The reflection stayed still.
00:21One, two.
00:23Then it slowly copied her movement.
00:27The smile her breath quickened.
00:30I'm just tired, she whispered.
00:32She waved sharply at the glass.
00:35One, two.
00:36The mirror waved back, but the reflection was smiling.
00:41Mara wasn't.
00:44Testing, she stepped to the left.
00:47The reflection remained centered.
00:50One, two.
00:51It slid into place.
00:53Too smooth, too deliberate, like it was choosing to follow.
01:00The tap, the reflection leaned closer to the glass.
01:04Its eyes widened with excitement.
01:07Mara stood frozen.
01:08The reflection raised its hand and tapped from inside.
01:13One, two.
01:14A cold finger tapped Mara's shoulder from behind.
01:20Alone, Mara refused to turn around.
01:23Slowly, she looked back at the mirror.
01:26Her reflection was gone.
01:28I do not know how to go down.
01:29My prism is done.
01:30You have to walk down.
