I agree with Empy, Mirror-pasta's follow that same premis. I also would like to point out there's no atmosphere in this story, whatsoever. We don't know where your character lives, why something odd might occur as what you described. You remove the atmosphere, then the substance, and use inferential sentencing to try to make up for it.

Why is your mirror acting like this? Did the protagonist(you) have any previous bad experiences with the mirror? House? Bathroom? Anything?

Did your mirror just decide it was going to be paranormal all of the sudden? What draws your character to stare at himself, smiling for an entire minute?

You follow the typical style of all those genuinely creepy micropastas, that were effective 3 years ago. Still, there's nothing in this pasta to set the mood, so the climax literally effects nothing.
