Conversation

β€œI don’t know who that is but it’s not me.”

"Not me? Then who are you talking to? A ghost?”

The image looked at me. I looked back.

β€œPerhaps you are speaking to yourself as you were, or as you want to be.”

β€œI am speaking to myself. Quit trying to confuse me. You are me.”

The image moved to the right. I moved to the left.

β€œIf I am you, then who am I?”

β€œI am myself, you are me.”

β€œNo, you are yourself. I am you as you were a few seconds ago. You will never be that person again.”

I walked away.

The mirror spoke to me again. β€œWho were you talking to?”
