This story has to do with Sherry, myself (Jake), David, and Vikki.
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!
