Hand me down


Henry’s family wasn’t rich. While other kids got cars on their 16th birthday to drive to school, Henry still had to take the bus. While other kids got new clothes, Henry got Good Will and hand-me-downs. Things didn’t exactly change after the Great Shift, but Henry felt more embarrassed than ever. He had ended up in the body of his classmate, Nadine. She only wore dresses, which she handed over to Henry’s family now that they no longer fit her. Good Will was cleaned out, which meant Henry had few choices for fashion on his first day back to high school.
