Out of the house (Part 1)

It had been a week since the Great Shift had occurred, swapping people’s bodies all around the world. Calvin had switched with his neighbor, Anne, but today would be his first venture out of the house. Quite frankly, he didn’t feel he was ready to go out, he still wasn’t used to being in Anne’s body. He still felt so uncomfortable, but he knew it would be something he would eventually have to do. He took a deep breath before opening the door.As he took his first steps, he realized it was warmer than he expected; the week before the Shift had been quite cold. He took off his coat and smiled. He could do this. He was just going to go next door, back to see his old house and his old body. Anne was there. She was in his body and had already visited him at her house several times now. Both were coping with being the other.

  3. Many of the multi-part stories are meant to be "open-ended." I will never put a "The End" when I finish any of them just IN CASE I feel like revisiting them later...but I often do consider plenty of them to be "done." At least for now! But others will have other parts coming too! :)
