The Day Thief pt 1

As Dast slowly opened his eyes, he saw the room form around him. The first thing that appeared was the hard wood ground. Next came the four walls, all also made of wood. Then came the ceiling and the bed. Finally all of the miniscule items, such as his dresser and giant mirror. He felt a wave of to know that he was finally home, where he could just lay down and think about the days events. He stumbled over to the bed and lay down. The minute he hit the bed, he was out.
About 18 hours later he awoke refreshed, yet still feeling as if the weight of the world was on his shoulders. He gathered his thoughts and walked over to the mirror. It was about 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide. He closed his eyes and brought back the memories of the day before. He replayed every detail in his mind. Around 5 minutes later he opened his eyes and looked around. He redirected his attention towards the mirror, preparing to watch the events for the second time. Finally, he saw himself appear in the mirror, only a day older.
