Self identification can be quite tricky. To the mind, the facts sometimes just get in the way.

One night Chris had trouble sleeping. He sat up and caught a reflection of himself in the bedroom mirror. That was when he saw her for the first time.

It was a girl about his age with body features similar to his own. The main difference was the clothing. Instead of what he was wearing, she had on a bright pink nightgown.

Every time he moved, she moved just like a normal reflection would do. He played mental games with his reflection for about a minute. Then she disappeared just as mysteriously as she had come.

Chris thought he had dreamed the whole thing. Then, a few days later, he saw her again. This time it was at school. Except for her gender and clothing, she looked just like him. She remained in the mirror for almost two minutes.

Her appearances were becoming more and more common and lasting longer and longer. Eventually she was the only thing he saw when he looked at his reflection. It was not just mirrors. Looking out the window, into a pool of water, or any reflective surface caused her to appear as his reflection.

Chris thought he saw going insane. He tried to get help. None of the help they offered him did him any good. One of them told him to just ignore it which was something he could not do.

Not knowing what else to do he asked, "Why are you here?"

"I am you," she explained. "You can call me Christine if you want. I have always been here. You just have not noticed me until recently."

"What do you want?" Chris demanded.

"I want to live outside the mirror as well as inside it," Christine replied. "but I can not do that without your help."

"What do you want me to do?" wondered Chris, realizing he was asking many questions but not providing any answers.

"Just let me be," said Christine.

Chris agreed to do this. The world around him started to blur. He felt like he was going to faint but somehow maintained his balance.

After she recovered, she looked around. Everything appeared to be exactly the same. Then Christine realized she was the one who had changed. This was a world where Christine had always existed and she had just become a part of it.
