Care Of Wooden Floors by Ellen Wiles
While house-sitting for a perfectionist friend in a stark, impeccably kept apartment, a hapless narrator tries to follow an array of meticulous instructions—especially concerning the immaculate floors—only to watch minor accidents spiral into calamity. As mishaps mount, a laconic stream of notes, a temperamental cat, and mounting guilt tighten the screws, turning a simple favor into a darkly comic meditation on control, responsibility, and the chaos lurking beneath ordered surfaces.
