A Thousand Versions of Us
A short story by
“Eleven lives waking up beside him as a stranger. Today, on the subway, he looked at me and said my name.”
Every time I close my eyes I wake up in a different reality: in one it rains upward, in another electric light was never invented, but in every one I find the same boy, with no memory of me. Everything changes in universe twelve, when he recognizes me before I speak. Now I have to find out what tore us apart before choosing to stay means destroying the way home.
