Your idea of molding three sides to each half of the mold is fundamentally correct, but you have a few things to consider here.
A cube isn't necessarily the easiest shape to cast in metal. Maintaining straight lines and (relatively) flat sides are key to a successful casting, but the manner in which metal cools inside the mold can cause warping and shrinkage, which pretty much defeats the whole purpose of casting the piece in the first place. You are going to need to consider making a larger mold to help insulate the piece to ensure that each side of the mold can accommodate the heat and pressure as the metal cools. Making the mold a little taller will allow you to employ a "button" to help the metal both fill the cavity and stay warm enough in the mold to set up without shrinking or warping.
You're going to need to decide where to sprue and gate this piece for pouring. You'll also going to have to lend some thought to adding vents to the corners to ensure that the air in the mold has somewhere to go once it gets displaced by liquid metal. A larger mold will give you more options as to where you place the vents and the size of the channel.
You don't have any apparent undercuts in the photo, but your master has a lot of work left. The mold is going to pick up every single defect - the seams and cavities along the edges, for example - and these will only be magnified and exaggerated in metal. Take the time to putty, sand, and correct the defects until it is perfect. Then, prime it to double check your work. The smoother you can get the surface, the easier it becomes to mold, cast, and finish.
Just a reminder - liquid metals don't play nicely with moisture of any sort. Don't use a liquid/aerosol mold release when you are ready to cast. Use talc.
