Look at someone. Look the thought raced through her head.
As her eyes lifted from the coin in her closed fist, she caught a glimpse of someone - herself.
Apparently, at that exact moment, a person at another table just put out a huge standing mirror, catching her own reflection.
She looked old. Older than she thought. Every flaw, every wrinkle, every hint of her 55 years on this planet seemed to be amplified back at her in this mirror.
I look so old Samantha thinks to herself looking at her reflection.
Suddenly, the air seemed to grow heavy around her, the faint smell of dust prevalent, her whole body seemed to tingle with electricity.
Reveal it. Heads or Tails! the strange though echoed in her head.
Still staring at herself in the mirror, she unclenched her first, revealing the coin in her hand.
