Sweaty fists gripped tight around the bat handle as I stand behind the door.
Stumbling footsteps coming closer.
Feeling the fear gnawing at my gut.
I smell the stale reek of smoke and booze.
Waiting for my daily beating, this time I'm prepared.

Nicely done! In 240 characters no less. :D I might have to try this out. Excellente!
Yes, give it a try! And they have one as well on Friday's that's 50 words.
Excellent use of the prompt to build tension and tell a complete story within the narrow character limit. Thoroughly enjoyed this @blueeyes8960. You captured the emotive response well. My heart was pounding alongside that of your protagonist, willing her to succeed. !PIZZA !ALIVE
Thanks @samsmith1971 and thanks for the pizza!

Scary!!
I hope she gets him and gets away
Me too, I think it's his turn for a beat down!
Oh, this is good! Yes, a bat handle will definitely send the message of 'enough is enough'!
You did great capturing this intense story in 240 characters. ☺️
Thanks @kemmyb, hope she got in some good licks then gets the heck out.
Okay... so this was seriously intense.
You managed to compress what could possibly be a whole chapter of tension into 240 characters. Well done!
Very Brilliant. Hopefully the narrator truly is fully prepared.
Thanks, @zeraton! I love the challenge of getting the most drama out of the fewest characters.
And I hope she got in the most swings with that bat and then gets the heck out of that situation for good.
