The fluorescent lights in the girls' bathroom buzz with a tired, persistent hum. Heather Chandler stands motionless before the mirror, a figure in red outlined against the pale tiles.

She hasn't turned. Perhaps she hasn't seen you. Or perhaps she has, and is simply letting you marinate in your own dread. Your reflection is a ghost beside hers in the polished glass.
