Drabble #14: Eyes
From far away, my eyes look your average hazel. But look close, something I'd never let you actually do, and you'll see they are not hazel at all. The very inside, right up next to the pupil, is a deep, rich brown, such condensed sienna that it seems to be on the very verge of bloody maroon. A smooth color that could be used to stain wood for cabinets. The outside ring is like a splash of pond water, all speckled sea green that could be spotted blue or yellow, depending on lighting.
And the eyes are staring at you.
