The hand is lift and there’s not much time to respond. Quickly it travels the short distance that separates it from its target. The sound reaches your ears just as fast and the skin takes in a red tone and as the blood concentrates in that area it gets warmer.

That sharp sound triggers in you a shock. For a moment you think of nothing but what just hit you, you stand there, looking at nothing, reality slowly pulls you back and your mind regains power and it’s at that moment that you decide what’s going to be done next.

A slap throws you out of whatever you are, it breaks violently your line of thoughts, a cheap resource to give the slapper time to think about how he can convince you he’s write.
