Chapter 15 - Mirror, Mirror on the Wall
“Granddad, are you coming with us?” Aaron invited his grandfather, who denied his invitation.
“No, you carry on with your craziness. Don’t bother me. I just wandered around... (Mr Alex paused when he looked at the portrait of Hexa)... here. “Mr Alex replied.
Aaron nodded and scooted to look for Mrtyu. She was behind everyone else, wandering the place where all students waited before the big door, which had a naming board made of glass, and it stated, in etched words, “Laberinto de Espejos.”
Everyone had fun articulating the word on the door. Mrtyu opened the translator app on her mobile and took a screenshot of the board, “Laberinto de Espejos,” the app publicized as, “Mirror Maze.”
“The architect who renovated this building has purposely named everything in Spanish.” Aaron remarked, “It wasn’t freshly etched, it might have aged half a century.”

The mirror maze was perfectly built, one needed to touch the glass surface to identify between the wall and the door as it reflects everything. Everyone enjoyed the maze and was amused to find the door to exit which was soundproofed. So no one can hear others except the people who are with them. After Aaron exited through one door, Mrtyu was left all alone in six walled mirror maze, she took her mobile and found a no-signal icon. “Damn this place. No signal. They have installed the signal jammer or what?” She clicked on the camera icon to photograph her reflection. To pass the time while waiting for Aaron's return, she attempted different positions and made funny faces. When she was taking pictures, she saw a scarlet butterfly was twirling around her head and landing on her left shoulder which was reflected in the mirror in front of her. Mrtyu turned her head with a smiling face to look at the butterfly and no presence of butterfly, “Where did it go?”

Mrtyu was dwelling on his coldness. Her eyes involuntarily opened to look at him. Her eyes gazed over the mirror behind them, and it dilated the pupils in her eyes in terror. “What...?” She was shocked. “How is this possible?” Apart from the frosting atmosphere, Mrtyu could feel her pearls of sweat on her forehead as her heartbeat increased rapidly and the terrifying tremble spread all over her when she found only her reflection in the mirror around her and nothing else like the scarlet butterfly or the man who had been still. Her enlarged green eyes turned to her side, and she saw the man kissing her passionately, and the terror grabbed her soul horribly. When she felt her palms cold in fear that his hands were squeezingher waist, she found it impossible to breathe. “I can touch him,” she said as her hand around his neck unwrapped slowlyand her quivering fingers just reached his shoulder. Mrtyu gasped for

The middle door leads them to nine walled mirror rooms; Aaron tried to stick to Mrtyu, who had been ignoring him lately. “Mrt., why are you avoiding me?”“Six walls, three doors; nine walls, and it mean four or five doors. We need to find the doors that lead us to exit.“ Mrtyu murmured while calculating in her mind.Aaron pulled her hands. “Answer me, Mrt?““What are you doing? Leave my hands.” Mrtyu tried to show her cold shoulder to him to cover up the fact that she had embraced him, which she felt embarrassed about.“I can’t accept your accusations that I never did,” Aaron said boldly.His behaviour annoyed Mrtyu and said, “Just leave it. You have been acting weird lately. (She exhaled with wide nostrils) I don’t want to recall anything, and I have just erased everything about last night and what happened right now. Everything! (She recalled how she had been terrified

Mrtyu leaned against the mirror wall, her ears to the surface, listening for any signals of humans on the other side, her hands in the mirror wall, feeling the vibration of her colleagues who she guessed were on the other side.Mrtyu was well aware that the mirror walls were soundproof. She couldn't be heard by anyone, so she moaned, "Oh, where is the exit door? Did Ron forget to construct the exit door? Aaron and my colleagues both departed. I believe I am the only one trapped in this maze. I'm such an idiot to chase him away. (She exhaled) I wish the dead merchant could lead me to exit.""I hope you won't feel regret?" a masculine voice said. Mrtyu was startled by the voice, but she found comfort in the warmth of the voice after checking his reflection in the mirror.But she doesn't want to show her happiness in his presence, so she turned the other way because she can see him in the mirror in front of her. "Why should I be sorry? I accept your dec

“You are... Ron, you know it, I just confessed you thinking I am mind voicing. I never confessed ever in my life not even in my dreams. And I never got any confession from anyone.”Aaron stood still with a no-emotion face while Mrtyu tried to convince him, “You are not a choice, Ron, and you are not a diversion from my heartbreak for what happened between Seyfert and his date Dmitri... (She chuckled) Ron, I too can feel that.”“So?” he asked with arched eyebrows looking away from her.“So... so what? You still stole my first kiss, if you didn’t do that last night, you did it now. So I am not sparing you.”“Hey, did you say the first kiss?” Aaron got a spark in his mind.“Yes, it is. But I don’t think it’s your first too as you mentioned about roaming all countries without dating any girls.”Aaron stammered while Mrtyu took over her guard. “Mrt, it

"Granddad?" The voice of Aaron awakens the sleepy Mr Alex. "Napping?""Oh, Ron, You are out of the maze, and then we will lead the students to lunch." Mr Alex tried to stand from the garden bench where he rested with the little help of his grandson.Aaron asked after looking into the confusion-filled face of his grandfather. "Granddad, what were you thinking?""It’s nothing but old memories of my brother." Mr Alex said with a deep exhale, remembering the past."You have a brother?" Aaron was shocked."Why wouldn’t I? I had one, naughty like you." Mr Alex mentioned with a chuckle by poking at his chest of Aaron and walking ahead of him."HAD?" Aaron stopped and asked with open arms."I am our family's sole survivor. It's you after me. That's why I urged you to marry someone of your choosing in order to carry on our renown and name to future descendants."

"I've always felt isolated in the vastness of the universe. I enjoy living in fantasy with my imagined companion and escaping reality by hiding behind a mask of a cheerful face, even if I've been harmed. But I'm not going to hide any longer. I have a man at my side who discoversme, cares for me and is always there for me." Mrtyu conveyed her inner enthusiasm for her newly discovered love for Aaron."The mirror maze not only mirrors us, but it also reflects our inner us. I realised that the illusion that occurred back there was my genuine, dark, desperate desire. I yearned to be treated welland spoiled by unconditional love. That's what the maze's mirrors reflect.
