The story
The okapi had been there since Tuesday. No one remembered when it arrived, or if it had ever left. It drank tea without stirring, blinked only when the microwave beeped, and never acknowledged the cat that slept curled against its leg. The neighbors had stopped asking. The okapi was simply part of the scenery now—immortal, unbothered, and slightly damp from the leaky faucet it had been licking for three weeks.
The brief
An okapi stands motionless in a sunlit suburban kitchen, one hoof resting on a chipped teacup, its striped hindquarters blending into the floral wallpaper as late afternoon light slants through lace curtains, casting long, quiet shadows across the linoleum floor.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
