From the cracked mirror --

Whisper (Louder this time) :

"Su...ji..n.."

She gasps , stumbling back , when suddenly the reflection shatters into black smoke.

Su jin (Screaming) :

"Mumma ! Papa!!"

Her mother frowns.

Mother :

"Su jin.... May be you're just tired".

But Su jin knows what she saw.
