Nick felt trapped underwater, everything was different, wrong in this world he found himself in. It wasn't just the people, but places that should have been familiar were subtly off.

His house, where he'd lived for over a decade, was the worse. His coffee mug had been in the wrong cupboard and it had taken him hours to find his whisky. Somehow, it was these little things which had brought home just how different this world was.

Nick was struggling to surface, in the hope that maybe, just maybe, if he succeeded he'd wake up back in his own world.

Poor Nick. Especially the coffee cup. I'll bet that was the straw.

*nods* It must have been hard being in a world so similar, but not.

The coffee cup was possibly the last straw.

Thanks for reading.
