Shattered Mirror
Most kids dream of running away to the circus.
I never got a say in what happened to me….
“Hey!Squirt!”Flower said,flicking my head.”Wake up!”she said with a scowl.
“Hey,sis,i'm not small anymore.”I grouched.She always said ‘squirt’ as an intended insult.
She hated me.
I hated her more.
She grabbed me by my shirt.”Thats big sis,you squirt.I've dealt with you for 12 years.”she growls.
“More like 16.”I snap back.”Get my age right.”
She slapped me.”You’d better shut your damn mouth before I cut it off.”
I held my hand to where she slapped me.Not wanting to escalate the situation further,I kept my mouth shut.
She sneered at me.”Go do your job.”She said,waving her hand at me.
Walking away,I went to go set up something, anything. As long as it made her leave me alone.
I eventually decided to go shine the mirrors for what I do.
I'm an illusionist for this place,and I specialize in lying and bending light to make illusions.Im the one who decided on the mirrors for the little kids.
As I walked and shined the mirrors,Flower watched me.
“What are you gonna do while I work,sis?”I asked her.
“Make sure you're working,of course.”She spat back.
“So in other words,you'll be lazy?”
“So in other words,you want me to slap you again?”She said,glaring at me.”I have seniority over you.”
“You're 18.Youre not special.”
“When you're 12,I have it.”
“Im 16.”
“Shut up and work.”She said,and like that the conversation was over.
Shining the mirrors in silence,Flower spoke up again.“Ey,Scarface,entertain me.”
“Call me by my real name,and perhaps I will.”
“Why not call you Scarface?It suits you.You know,with your face scars,and all.”
It's true,my face had multiple scars,the stage story was I got into a fight with an animal,and now I look like this.
The real reason was that Flower got mad at me,and she smashed my face into a mirror.
Fun times.
“Please don't call me Scarface sis.”I asked.”A name is one of the last things that you let me have.”
She sneered,hanging upside down from a beam above us,hanging down only an inch or so from my face.”Fine then.I will do that for you then.But youre name is kinda….dumb,dont you think Silver?”
“I'm quite fond of it actually.”I said,seethed.”But,couldn't you say the same thing about your name Flower?”
