The face I saw...; A short story about the big question.

"Who do you think this is an effigy of...?"
The lady in red asked me this, almost as if she had made it for me. I could see the carvings, almost as if it was carefully crafted with one person in mind. But it couldn't be me. She didn't even know me... Did she? So I sat there, wondering if this could really be me. If this could really be my true self, staring back at me, in the form of an effigy.
I took the carving from her hands; her warm, homely hands. It was a heat that felt familiar. A feint warmth, that for some reason resonated with my mind. The effigy that I now held before me carried this resonant flame-like warmth with it, and brought back so many memories... Or thoughts of memories. It felt like it was placing memories in my mind. Memories of a life that I didn't have... Or did I? Have I met her, before? I looked deeper into the small silhouette I held so tightly. It looked like someone I knew. I could almost even make out features... Clothes. A life. A family... A face... That face... The face I saw... It was so familiar... But... Could it, really..?

"That's right. It's an effigy of you."

(Saw there was nothing here, so I decided to put something here. Nothing exquisite, but feedback and critique would be nice. :3)

Gotta say, it's quite good for a one-shot.

I should try to make a drawing of this scene actually (even though I suck at drawing)
