Deserve an Explanation

William had spent the past three hours stuck in this chair, trying to break free while thinking about how he got stuck like this. He honestly didn’t know. He had been sitting at home, minding his own business when suddenly he was somewhere else, in someone else’s body and tied up in this chair. He wasn’t sure which was tighter or more uncomfortable, the ropes binding him or the clothes he now wore. All his struggling seemed to do little good. Finally, he heard the doorknob jiggle and a man entered.

“Thank God!” William exclaimed, “I don’t know how long I’ve been stuck like this. I don’t know what’s going on or how I got here. Could you please help me out!”

“You haven’t heard about the Great Shift?” The man asked as he untied William.

“I’ve heard nothing. I’ve just been stuck.” “Well, you do deserve an explanation. The media is calling what happened ‘The Great Shift.’ It seems everyone swapped bodies with someone else. And I probably deserve an explanation too, but I doubt you are the one to give it to me. I will just have to wait for my husband to get home to tell me why he’s tying a woman in our house while I am away.”
