Poised and bent into a loose fist, her fingers hung over a cocked wrist ready to fling itself, trebuchet style, forward and over, wrapping knuckles into the wood of the door. There was a confrontation in that tiny space of air between her hand and the surface, between the toe of her boot sole and the floor as she had lifted each foot over and over again in her approach, striding down the stone-floored hall. The tension was a reflection of the contest of wills fast approaching, when they would come face-to-face with each other across differing values. Only an idiot would proceed without holding back and she did not know how to hold back. Thus, she passed her heels across the threshold knowing she was not going forward but rather stepping into withdrawal.
