“I know,” I replied quietly. I felt so frightened. I had chills running down my back, chills that wouldn’t stop. “I can’t see you, either.”
“What happened?” Lefty cried. I could feel him tug at my invisible arm.
“I—I don’t know,” I stammered. “It worked before. I clicked off the light and I was back.”
I gazed into the mirror. No reflection. Nothing.
No me. No Lefty.
I stood there, staring at the spot where our reflections should be, frozen with fear. I was glad Lefty couldn’t see me because I wouldn’t want him to see how frightened I looked.
“Try it again, Max,” he whined. “Please. Hurry!”
“Okay,” I said. “Just try to stay calm, okay?”
“Stay calm? How?” Lefty wailed. “What if we never get back? What if no one can ever see us again?”
I suddenly felt so sick. My stomach just sort of heaved.
Get a grip, I told myself.
