Damian was still standing in front of a mirror. A classic carved wooden mirror he had accidentally found in an empty room in his new home. Somehow the previous owner left him in that empty room. Damian's eyes were fixed on the antique mirror she had just discovered.

Suddenly the bedroom window opened. A breeze was blowing hard against her. A man stands right behind Damian.
"The mirror is called a mirror of the future." The man began to utter words. There is a creepy aura that radiates on it.
Damian was startled to find someone who appeared out of nowhere. "Who are you? Why are you here? How do you get in here? "He asked repeatedly. There was a feeling of fear that had perched on his heart as he stared at the man.
The man smiled with his awful grin. There is a creepy aura that radiates on it. Slowly he stepped forward to Damian. Frightened Damian stepped back until his hand accidentally touched the antique mirror.

"You need not fear me! Now you are the owner of the mirror. you can use it as much as you want to see your future, "he said, staring at Damian.
"Looking at the future?" Said the damian with a small smile on his lips, "Are you kidding? How could this antique mirror see my future? You better go now, or I'll ... "
"What will it be? Hit me? "Cut the man," You do not have to bother to hit me. If you do not believe it, prove it yourself. But remember! Every time you use the mirror of the future, you must be ready to sacrifice something valuable in your life. "
Damian looked at his reflection in the mirror. He did not believe the man's words at all. When he turned back, he was shocked. The man who was behind him was gone. Damian's hair was suddenly standing up.

Damian looked back at the antique mirror. Is it true that this mirror can show my future? He thought.
There is a sense of fear when the man's speech actually happens when he actually uses it. But a sense of curiosity had enveloped Damian to immediately prove his point.

"O future mirror, show me what will happen to me tomorrow at school!" Said Damian hesitantly.
Immediately Damian's reflection in the mirror disappeared. Damian was shocked to see the mirror. the mirror shows the figure of him meeting a beautiful girl at school. He repeatedly pinched his hands, making sure he was not dreaming.

The morning has arrived. Unlike Damian usually went to school alone. Somehow early in the morning my father was gone. he glanced at his watch. Still remaining 20 minutes before going to class. He immediately accelerated his footsteps toward the library.

BRUK!
A girl screamed loudly, "Auugh, sick." The girl sat on the floor with her books scattering on the floor.
Damian immediately picked up his books and helped him to his feet, "I'm sorry, I did not mean it."
"It is okay. I'm also wrong, really. "The girl then left leaving Damian still staring at him without blinking.

This night was silent. Dad has not come home yet.
"Damian! Mother left for a while, "Mother cried.
Soon the car was driving. Damian could only sigh. His face looked so disappointed. Tonight he had to be alone at home.

After the incident, Damian returns to the empty room. he stood in front of the antique mirror. Damian took a deep breath, trying to piece together the words in her brain to make the request sentence to the mirror, "O future mirror, show me what will happen to me when I am twenty-five years old!"
Like that moment, his shadow disappears. The mirror then shows itself to be alone at home. His appearance looks messy, unkempt. His body is very thin, like a person who is malnourished. There was no one at home. Damian's eyes widened as he saw what the mirror was displaying.
"It's not possible! Why am I like that? where is my father and mother? "asked Damian confused.

Suddenly the figure of father and mother Damian emerged from the antique mirror. "Damian! Please Father and Mother! "Father said, pounding the mirror from the inside.
"Father! Mother! "He shouted. She hurriedly went to get a chair and tossed it hard against the antique mirror.
The mirror was not broken at all, still intact as before.

"It's useless, the mirror will not break at all," said a man suddenly behind him.
"How do I get my father and mother out in the mirror?" Damian asked in a panic.
"Unfortunately there is no way to free your father and mother. Did not I warn you, you can use that mirror as you please but you have to sacrifice something valuable in your life, "he said with a terrible laugh. He then disappeared with a strong wind gusts.

Damian did not know what else to do to get his father and mother out of the mirror. Damian regrets having used that mirror of that future.
