Iceberg eyes, awash in sweat, drifted between “then” and…then. “Then” was a place he called “alien,” though he knew its true identity. Then was something he called “home,” but no warm security presented itself in the term. He abandoned “then,” walking off to create something he hoped was reality.1
Author notes
Forty-nine words, not counting the single use of the letter "a."
I suppose this would fit in options One and Two. The scenario is something I created, and you could say it's a sort-of description of this character's mindset.
I'm not a fan of "stories" that are this short, but I figured I'd give it a shot anyway for the hell of it.
