Kinsman studies the news reporter, as she subtly adjusts her mid length skirt while leaning forward, about to interview the man in front of her.
Closing her eyes, Kinsman imagines the two of them fucking. Opening her eyes, she looks down at her pinstripe skirt, with her right hand resting on her knee.

Essy Zabel sits in a meditation pose, as the woody and sweet fragrance of Palo Santo and sage subtly emanates from incense cone burning at her open lounge room window seal, with a dark purple shawl covering her head and shoulders. She looks up at the window, barely able to view the skyline from the neighboring apartment building’s brick facade, she does however eye the dark clouds above.
“The chaos storm continues,” Zabel says, with her open left palm face down in front onto the Persian carpet she is sitting on.
