Before Coffee

There on the wall next to the door, an eight legged, furry, brown predator. Limbs outstretched covering an area the size of a coaster. Motionless it waited.

One look was enough to bring the woman to a stop. For a moment she studied the hunter on the wall. A wolf spider she decided, nothing to worry about. Yet, when she tried to pass she was unable to move, her heart began to race.

In her mind it grew to gigantic size leaping out to grab her.

“Its only a spider.” She told herself heading for the kitchen and the coffeemaker.
