The story
The waterbuck waited for the appointment that never came. It had checked its watch twice and looked at the door every few minutes. Now it stood in the waiting room, feeling a sense of mild disappointment that settled deep in its chest. The receptionist had promised a prompt start, but the clock had moved ten minutes without a sound. The waterbuck sighed, shifted its weight from one hoof to the other, and wondered if it should have brought a book. It decided against leaving, as that would require more effort than the situation deserved.
The brief
A single waterbuck stands in a small, beige-walled room, facing forward with its head slightly lowered. The lighting is flat and grey, illuminating pale green curtains and a grey floor. The animal's expression is one of mild disappointment.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
