Cool My First Sherry Story

Once I had said quite a while ago that I was going to tell some stories about my friend Sherry. Well, here is the first one:

This story has to do with Sherry, myself (Jake), David, and Vikki. Ok, Sherry, Vikki, and I were all servers at a restaurant in Silver City, NM and Sherry would often drive David and Vikki home from work. David was kind of on the "slow" side, but overall an alright person. Sherry is a gruff and rather rude person, but nevertheless she is my friend. So one time Vikki went in to a convenience store to make a purchase and while Vikki was gone into the store, Sherry turned around to David in the backseat and said to him, "your stupid, your an idiot, they're going to take you to the crazy house." I said, "Sherry, that's mean stop it."

I'd refrain from any more stories.

I read the story out loud to Mum.
She was very appreciative.

Sherry sounds like an ass. And she doesn't know that the contraction of you are is you're, not your.

People. This story is big. You have to work at it, to figure out what the real plot twist is.

I think David is actually dead when Sherry turns around, and what she's saying is metaphor, describing his death.

I think you're on the right track. Let's explore further, shall we?

The opening line is more telling after inspection than it was at first glance. Consider:

See, Sherry and 'myself' (Jake), are really the same person. Sherry has multiple personalities. "Sherry, myself..." We might even go so far as to say EVERY CHARACTER IN THE STORY is actually Sherry.

And when you really boil it down, we're all Sherry, aren't we?

Sherry as Everyman...Brilliant stuff!
