The Chair in the Doorway

spot. The way that our house was set up made it so that if I sat in the doorway to my room, I could see almost the entire layout of the living room. I spent many nights there watching tv shows that my parents wouldn 't let me watch because they were too “grown up”. Now it was an ultimate position for spying. I could see the shoulders of my mom and my dad looking at something on the computer screen. My mom was sitting in the chair scrolling through something that I could not see from my vantage…

She turned over from her chair to look at me with her half open eyes. I saw her face, it was bright red with dried streaks down her face. “Go ahead sweetie, I’ll be fine.” She lied, and I knew she did, but I had no choice. I ran over and wrapped my arms around her. We said that…

the electricity was out, and the only light was from a lightstick Woozi insisted on keeping in his studio, he pushed Dino into the keyboard. "Ow!" Dino yelped. "Sorry!" apologized Woozi. Woozi took the light stick from its place and found the doorway. "Come on, let's find the others." "Let's look in the practice room. Hoshi said he would try to get ideas for a new choreography with the others there." Dino suggested. Dino already knew he was correct, but he wanted to make it sound like he…

appears to be like a cup of water and the one of the right is Isabel de Velasco. Also the one of the far right is Mari Barbola and her son Nicolás Pertusato. Behind Isabel de Velasco stands Marcela de Ullo. In the background appears a man standing in a doorway and that’s José de Nieto Velazquez the chamberlain of the queen, which may had been related somehow to…

were all small with big doorways all leading to the biggest room. Everyone was wearing dark and fancy clothes like mine. Everyone was chatting…

On the way to school Mom gets a message and has Nix read it aloud to her while she drives. Maria was fired. You want her shift tonight? -Paula "What do you boys think?" Mom asks. "If you want it, go for it," Nix says, closing her phone and dropping it on top of her purse. "Will you be able to find a ride home from school?" She asks, pulling into Sultana 's drop off zone. My shoulders sag. I hate it when this happens. "I don 't have a game today, so I can take the bus," Nix says, grabbing his…

“I didn’t fucking say…” Nick sighed, letting his voice drop out of a yell as to not alarm the neighbors. Again. Nick made his way toward their sorry excuse of a master bedroom, past the little dining table that was accompanied by two dark wooden chairs. Nick picked up the little accent pillows that Dani insisted on spreading across their bed. “Stupid decorative pillows,” he mumbled to himself. Nick laid down the smaller blue lace pillows against the medium green ones, which leaned against the…

Guilty as Charged I met Deluca in a once quiet prison, which was now scurrying in a manic manner as the correctional officers and the Governor tried to assess the prison’s most recent situation. Behind a strengthened distressed steel door was an abundance of handpicked inmates all awaiting their fate. A select few of the inmates did not seem amused by the situation, and some could care less. More than half of the prisoners were clenching the posts of the door in a rage, screaming at the top of…

A. Summary of my experience My first experience in the wheelchair was Sunday September the 25th when I made a trip to Wal-Mart in Nacogdoches. I got out of my truck and walked to the back and let the tailgate down. I then retrieved the wheelchair out of the back of the truck and then sit down. There was five people standing four cars up from where I parked. They glared at me and I knew what was going through their minds, as I passed I could hear them talking although I do not know what was said…

The classroom door burst open, slamming against the door stopper with a loud bang. All the tiny third grade students turned in their chairs to see who was there. Some students shrieked in fear while others stared in open shock at the door. In the doorway stood a crude looking man who was brandishing a gleaming gun. He was screaming at them to get on the ground or else. He waved the gun around wildly for more effect. The scheme worked. Children whimpered in fright as they raised their hands above…
