Title: The Enchanted MirrorLevel: Intermediate (B2)#Story : Lena, a busy editor, stumbles upon an antique shop and finds a mysterious mirror. The shopkeeper tells her the mirror shows the future based on her current choices. When Lena looks into it, she sees a cold, lonely version of her future—a life filled with exhaustion and isolation. Shocked by the vision, Lena realizes that her work-focused lifestyle is leading her toward this future. The shopkeeper reminds her that the future can be changed, and Lena begins to make small adjustments in her life. As she reconnects with friends and finds balance, she checks the mirror again.
