One gloomy night, she sees an image outside the window. The Image looks scary to her.
Startled, she covers her mouth and hides in a corner.
She doesn’t have the courage to look again.
On the other end of the dusty pane, an equally terrified soul sits silently.

There could be several interpretations. ‘terrified of each other’ is definitely one of the interpretations. Thank you 🙂

I’m sure she had her reasons. Maybe they both are one and the same & she is terrified of herself. Maybe they are scared of each other. maybe she is a little different in the other universe. Which interpretation do you like the most? 🙂

There can be different interpretations to it. May be they are one and the same.. may be they both are scared of each other . Or may be the other person is a reflection or as you said figment of imagination. Take your pick😊
Thanks, Neha
