And mostly they forget about it. Or at least they don't talk about it.

One morning as she's passing by, she sees much more than her own reflection - it's a scary figure taunting her. She startles and breaks the mirror. When the pieces are put back together (barely), the figure is gone.That day in school, a new girl arrives. Her name is Mary . . . .A Hard Day's Night: A Lonely Hearts Club Short Story
