The next location was not a hotel.

It was a half-demolished mental institution on the outskirts of the city, long forgotten by the maps and overtaken by weeds and fog. Aryan had to bribe a local to unlock the iron gates that creaked like they carried stories of the dead.

Room 27 was on the third floor. The hallway smelled of mildew and something older—like rotting books and despair.

As Aryan stepped in, the black journal pulsed in his coat. He followed its warmth until he stood before a rusted metal door marked “27” in flaking white paint.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQpPtEpI4g
Inside, it was colder.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UqT0csmXt
The walls were lined with shattered glass. No windows — only dozens of broken mirror shards nailed to every surface. They reflected Aryan from every angle.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08AridcrmI
But something was wrong.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgd3qQynLG
In every mirror, Aryan’s eyes looked… different. Glossier. Hollow.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypsOf8yAk0
On the ground was a small mattress. And beside it — a hand-drawn portrait of a boy with completely silver eyes, smiling eerily.

Then the door slammed shut behind him.

He turned.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyyWsGU4s6
A boy stood there. About 12 years old. Pale, silent. His eyes weren’t just silver — they were literal mirror glass. Aryan could see his own reflection in them. But the reflection smiled back… differently.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRmvMFFbAG
The boy spoke, but his mouth didn’t move.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hRYhHa6Fr
“Don’t look away. He doesn’t like that.”
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzexCU35Tj
Aryan’s reflection stepped forward — but Aryan hadn’t moved.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIRHcujgHh
The mirror version raised its hand. Aryan froze.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYdEa5Kt2c
Suddenly, all the reflections in the room started to shift. In some, Aryan was screaming. In others, he was covered in blood. In one, he was missing.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ieXtZZHhb
The real Aryan dropped to his knees, the journal clutched in his arms.

"This place feeds on self-perception. On guilt. On denial."

The mirror-boy tilted his head.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN5ejrVfEe
“That’s how I disappeared,” he said softly. “I saw too many versions of myself, and forgot which one was real.”
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY0LM4Lxk3
A mirror shattered behind Aryan.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03rKftxDZ1
He turned to look.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSimlXtGGQm
In its broken pieces, he saw not himself, but his sister — standing behind him, burning again. Crying for help. Reaching.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCl4iGK5nI
He whispered: “I’m sorry.”
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpIxYCpuQP
All the mirrors shattered at once.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyjBUyeAn5
Aryan blacked out.

He awoke outside Room 27. The door wide open. Morning light streaming in. In his pocket, the journal vibrated.

Room 27 – Delivered

Aryan stood slowly, eyes wet, breath unsteady.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhDl4txs7c
One more door.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uH53p1hrw
One final scream.
