Random inspiration: under new management char

The story
The chair had been through worse. After the fire, the new management declared it ‘salvageable with character’ and placed it center stage in the waiting area, where it now endures silent scrutiny from visitors who wonder if it’s art, a warning, or just bad furniture. No one sits. No one speaks. The bulb hums.
The brief
A charred wooden chair sits upright in a dim, beige-walled room under a single flickering bulb, its backrest blackened and peeling, one leg slightly askew as if recently moved, with faint smoke still curling from the seat cushion.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
