The Wait

Jared had been waiting for six hours on this bench in the park. The lights were starting to come on for the night. He had gone from telling himself that Mrs. Wong was running late to telling himself that something must have happened.

What he didn’t want to think about was that she might’ve just decided to run off with his body. No, she wouldn’t do that, would she? Granted, his own body was twenty years younger and in excellent health, but she wouldn’t want to be a guy, would she? Well, he certainly didn’t want to be a woman! And he didn’t want to stay stuck as Mrs. Wong!

No, something must have happened on her way. Maybe his body was in the hospital, or maybe she got an emergency call from his work. She could still show up and second now, and they could figure out how to swap back! That was yet another problem; they still had no idea how to swap back! That was going to be what they were going to talk about!
