Mirrors

You know that feeling you get when you see a mirror, that it just might be a one-way-mirror? Especially in public restrooms, and other public places.

I would always treat them like they were one-way-mirror, without showing that I was aware of it. Would wash my hands like I was being watched, and also make a silly face to the mirror, to convince the people watching that I was unaware of them.

— This kid is making a silly face. He has no idea we can see him, haha.

— Did he wash his hands properly though?

— Yes. And he has not touched his pockets or given any indication that he is hiding anything. He's not our guy.

— We'll let him live for now then.

Of cource, deep down I knew the mirrors probably weren't one-way-mirrors.


Things have changed alot since then; now we are being watched.

No longer limited to mirrors; they can see us everywhere.

They don't just see us; they read our minds.

Pretending takes tremendous effort; but it's mostly in vain. They know.
