Rupert woke up for the third day after the Great Shift, picking himself up off the matress on the floor. This woman was so poor, she couldn’t even afford a bed! He saw the irony of it all, considering he had been one of the richest men in the world prior to this, worth billions and billions of dollars.
Technically, he still was. People were certainly claiming their original lives, he just wasn’t in a position to do that quite yet. Perhaps once he was able to gain access to the internet or even a phone he could go about proving his true identity.
Until then? Well, he was stuck as an impoverished woman in a third world country. He didn’t have any reference, but he imagined it was even more chaotic here than in the developed world. He was also sure it would settle down soon. At least he hoped so.
