Jerry didn't know what he was thinking when he grabbed that camera out of the garbage. He was hoping for some cash, obviously, but how the hell was he going to walk out without gaining suspicion? Jerry tried his best to hide it under his coat as he walked towards the exit. He caught a glance of himself in one of the shop windows and was repulsed.
Look how hard he had fallen. Years ago he was a prominent business man on the way to the good life... but things took a turn when he met the love of his life, Alexa. Jerry fell hard for her, so hard that he never even realized that she was a massive gold digger. Before he knew it he had lost all his possessions and credibility.
His gray dirty beard helped frame his sad brown eyes, his dark, shaggy black hair, his wrinkled, weak arms, and his garbage looking clothes. He had defended into dumpster diving, and decided to try his luck today in the mall, hoping that someone would leave something for him to pawn.
The problem was, he needed to get out before he was spotted. He had managed to sneak in by coming in a side entrance but now that entrance was blocked off by a security officer.
"Dammit... I'll just have to find another one." He thought starting to panic. He turned the corner only to find a burly security guard walking toward him. "This is it." He thought. "I'll be arrested. I've finally reached the bottom of the bottom. Oh god why." He thought as he clutched the camera hard.
In doing so, however, he realized he had accidentally activated the camera. He managed to see it for a moment before the light flashed in his face. He screamed out, barely holding onto the camera as he rubbed his temporarily blinded eyes. As he regained his sight, he realized that in his stupidity he had let the guard walk right up to him. He braced for the tackle that was surly to come, but no such attack came.
"Sorry if I scared you." The guard said gently. Jerry was stunned as he had looked much taller than he had previously thought. "I spotted you before and just wanted to make sure you were okay." The guard explained.
"What?" Jerry asked, before quickly covering his mouth as the voice that had come out was not his.
"You alright miss?" The guard asked.
"Miss?" Jerry thought, beyond freaked out. He turned slowly, and spotted his reflection in the mirror. His jaw dropped, as a female stared back at him. It looks somewhat like him, like a sister or something, but....
