The story
The wasp had been waiting for the toast to cool. It didn’t sting — it never did — but it did absorb the crumbs, the butter, the faint trace of jam, and grew slightly heavier with each sip. The woman who owned the kitchen had left the room to answer a phone, unaware that her breakfast was being quietly redefined. When she returned, she paused, blinked, and decided not to ask questions. Some things, she thought, were better left uneaten and unexplained.
The brief
A semi-liquid wasp hovers mid-air in a dim, beige-walled kitchen, its translucent amber body dripping slowly onto a chipped ceramic plate beside a half-eaten slice of toast, under the weak glow of a single overhead bulb casting long, faint shadows.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
