Relentless Call

[rabidsamfan]

As the moment approached when I must place my fate into the hands of the law, I found myself suspended between confidence and despair, and in that curious state where the most minuscule of details are magnified beyond their usual significance. I found myself entranced by the sound of the girl singing in the scullery as she cleaned, and moved beyond speech by the warmth of my wife's hand as it rested upon my shoulder. For Holmes's sake I counted the steps of each staircase I climbed, and wondered if this unforgiving clarity was how he always saw the world.
