It Started with a Cough (Part 2)

View Part 1 of It Started with a Cough.

For the rest of the day, Dr. Fielding was mostly worried about his nurse, and why she suddenly seemed to lose her mind. He didn’t notice the slight cough he was developing. As the rode the train home from the city to the suburbs, it got a little bit worse. When he finally arrived home and greeted his wife, he let out a much bigger cough.

Much like how his nurse had described earlier, his soul seemed to escape from him. It entered his wife’s body, and Dr. Fielding took control.He watched as his own body turned to dust before his eyes. It was all exactly as his nurse had told him! It was real, and he was now in the body of his own wife! He had to try to contact his nurse... or Mr. Baldwin? Then he realized whatever she had must have been contageous, and he had just been coughing for the past hour on his commute. There’s no telling how many people he had spread this strange body swapping virus to!
