Horror story: the other me

I was in the playground with my friends, in a normal day right in the

middle of a dodgeball game, when a girl punches me in the face with
the ball. I looked at her, and she was smiling at me so macabrely, but
that wasn’t the scariest thing, what really scared me, was that she
was just like me, but no one seems to noticed. Suddenly everybody
started to vanish, I looked down asking me if I was crazy, and when I
looked up, she was right in front of me with that creepy smile on her
face. I screamed and I woke up with my heart beating pumping so
hard, I realized it was all a nightmare.
Once I felt more calmed, I went downstairs to have breakfast, when
my mom asked me if I was feeling better, “What do you mean?” I
replied, “you had nightmares last night, and you went to my room”
she said. I felt confused but I didn’t say anything. Then I went to
school, everything was going well until I went to the restroom. I was
staring at me in the mirror, when I saw blood tears running down my
cheeks. I touched my face but there was no blood, I looked at my
reflection again, and the other me was laughing all covered in blood.
I punched the mirror and it got broke but she didn’t disappear, so I
ran away to the nurse’s office. There was a new nurse and she
seemed friendly so I told her what had happened just few minutes
ago, she actually believed me and starting telling me that I should
talk with the other me. I didn’t understand why, but I promised her I
would try. But when I left the infirmary the bell rang, the time to exit
had come and I could see through the window that my mom had
passed for me, and in fact she was taking me, but it was not me, it
was my other creepy me, so I started to run quickly to reach the car
when suddenly I heard a very loud horn and everything turned black.
When I regained my consciousness I realized that I was still in the
infirmary, I thought, I ran away excited, "everything had been a
nightmare" I told myself relieved, but then I realized that there was
no one else in the school and when I saw the clock, I noticed that it
was 4 o'clock, the exit time had only been at 2 o'clock, I had knocked
myself unconscious for 2 hours! I ran terrified to make sure that my
mother was okay, when I came into the house, something pulled my
foot, it was my mom who told me not to make noise, that she knew
what was going on, so I asked her for an explanation, we left the
house in silence and she started to tell me "when you were born, it
came out that you were born with a twin sister, but she was never
detected until she was born, as she grew up she was showing very
strange attitudes, it could be said that tenebrous, at the point that I
had to call to the priest of the church, then she disappeared".
My sister wants to kill me, actually she is looking for my body, and I
think she got her objective because at this moment I am seeing my
mom with the other me, my mom knows nothing, she thinks that I
am with her, but in fact, I am far away from home and I don’t know
if I would returned to safe her.
