The room looked strange. It was roughly like his, but some of the colors and decorations were different. He glanced at an electronic photo frame on his desk that showed a picture from when the family took a vacation--instead of himself in the picture, there was a girl, in the same pose, with longer hair than his and who resembled Zoe a little bit. But it wasn't Zoe, who was in a different part of the photo anyway.
The only logical explanation is that he was in some kind of alternate reality where he was born a girl. He stepped over to the desk and picked up one of the photos, then put it down. Then a door opened behind him.
He turned to see a girl who looked a lot like himself walk in. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" she said, in a voice that sounded like his on a recording, but higher pitched.
