Start.
Things nearby
Cup, paper, wood—within reach.
Around the room
Tea cup with remaining warmth
Set back before it dried; a shallow ring stays inside, unclaimed and ordinary.
- If the cup you picture already lives inside laptop bloom— catalog anchor
- Or the sand mug still nearer the trackpad than the dish rack— catalog anchor
Folded paper note
Stopped mid-fold; morning light finds the fibers a little drier, still unsmoothed.
- Paper that refuses to snap shut on a half sentence— catalog anchor
- Or cotton waiting for a sentence too tender for chat— catalog anchor
Chair not pushed back—angle survived dinner and the next morning.

Cup or linen within reach—optional.

Traffic louder before nine.
A later visit does not ask where you stopped.
