Relationships are not easily broken.
As usual, I was practicing dancing while looking in the mirror.
" Stretch your legs to the left, circle_ "
It was easier to make tutorials than to listen to them, so I was making tutorials by myself and following the choreography while humming along, as I always do.
" ···uh? "
It's weird. The mirror is weird.
Stretch your legs to the left···, the mirror also stretched its legs to the left.
but,
It was on the left from the mirror's perspectiveThat was the problem.
" what··· "
I was dancing the fastest I'd ever known. The steps were so dazzling I couldn't even see them, but the movements I saw in the mirror, following those steps, were increasingly unable to keep up with my own pace.
" ···what. "
"You... who are you?"
" ···. "
"Answer me, what are you?"
" excuse me··· "
"Can you please stop speaking informally to me?"
" ···?;;;; "
I, who had lowered my head without responding to the call, no, the me in the mirror raised my head slightly and muttered nonsense. It was a soft, gentle voice, completely different from mine.
"Whew..."
"Okay, I'll be polite. Who are you?"
" I am… "
To summarize the girl's story, which she told with a heavy heart, it was as follows.
In her previous life, she had fallen in love with a man and promised him eternal love. However, she died in an unexpected accident. She spent her entire life wandering the underworld, guarding him, and he ultimately died a bachelor. With his death, the woman suddenly became a mirror in this room, recalling a story she had heard before.
They say that fate doesn't break so easily.People reincarnate, and those who need to be protected or harbor grudges become ghosts wandering the underworld. Heaven grants its permission to protect these ghosts and to help resolve their grudges. One method of this assistance is said to be the mirror.
It doesn't directly connect you to the person you need to protect or the person who caused the grudge, but it helps connect you to someone who can help.
For a while, he followed the mirror, and the man must have been reincarnated. The man's name was···
Seungcheol, he said his name was Choi Seungcheol.
