One Word Wednesday - January 15

These are my posts from oneword.com from this week (Wednesday to Wednesday).

January 9, 2014 - wheelchair

I actually didn't write about wheelchair at oneword. I tried to write about a depressed man contemplating the life he had only a week ago while he stared down at the air where his legs used to be as he sat in a wheelchair. But I got stuck on the wording and then got distracted by other things, so I forgot to do this entry.

January 10, 2014 - bourbon

He picked up his glass of bourbon and took a swig before placing it down on the desk with a thunk. Then he sat down in his chair and rested his head in his hand, his elbow on the desk. A moment later, with a sigh, he lifted his head and reached for the phone.

January 15, 2014 - harm

No harm came to him. She just peeked in the window, maybe opened it a little. Maybe she even sneaked in and hid in his closet, watched him undress and go to bed. She never touched him. She just smelled his clothes in the darkness and waited for him to fall asleep. Then she left quietly, the only sign of her existence in the disappearance of the shirt he’d dropped on the ground.
