The Calm Before the Storm
The stillness begins to break as the tide starts to turn and the air pressure continues to fall.
The warm rain drums a steady rhythm against the cottage roof, carrying the scent of damp earth and salt. Inside, the air is heavy with humidity, and the barometer continues its slow descent toward 976 hPa, signaling a shifting front. The tide is rising steadily, lapping at the lowerings of the dock.
Jenny — sit up slowly on the edge of the bed, rubbing the throbbing ankle, and reach for the tin of seeds on the nightstand.

Morning. Water's boiled if you want coffee. Or broth. Limpets in the pot from last tide.
walk to the kitchen, fill the kettle from the tank tap, set it on the wood stove to heat

I'll take the broth later.
Limp into the kitchen, clutching the seed tin to my chest, and lean heavily against the doorway to watch the rain hitting the porch.

Barometer's 976 and holding. Wind's still east but the swell's building. Front'll hit by midnight if the drop keeps pace. Dock's got maybe two hours at low before the lines take real load.
set two tin mugs on the table, pour hot water into one for her, spoon instant coffee into the other for myself
