Eric woke up hoping last night hadn’t been a dream. A quick look in the mirror confirmed it wasn’t. A woman had come up to him in a bar. She had her head covered except for her eyes. She revealed her face, and Eric was surprised. She was a supermodel. Her face was on billboards and in magazines everywhere. But why was she talking to him? She covered her head back up, and asked if Eric wanted to switch bodies with her. He was puzzled. Why would someone like her want his life? He was a nobody. He didn’t even have a hesitation about being a woman; he quickly agreed. The next thing he knew, he was in her body and she was leading him to her apartment and explaining all about her life. He went to bed with the biggest smile.
He still wondered why she had given up this life. That is, until he went outside. Immediately, he was swarmed by paparazzi. He couldn’t do anything, not even slip off to the bathroom, without someone trying to take a photo. She hadn’t mentioned all this, and he quickly realized that this was what she was trying to escape. She just wanted a bit of privacy, something which Eric now wish he had.
