The story
Gerald had been waiting for his appointment for three hours. He reviewed the forms on his clipboard, though he could not read the text. The receptionist had told him to wait until his name was called, but no names were ever called. He shifted his weight, feeling the linoleum press against his paws. Outside, the rain fell steadily against the glass, blurring the street into a grey smudge. Gerald sighed, a sound like a piece of cardboard being folded, and waited for a legal distinction that never arrived.
The brief
A beige hyena sits upright in a grey waiting room, holding a clipboard and staring at a blank wall under harsh fluorescent lights. The floor is linoleum, and a single potted fern wilts in the corner.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
