B is for ... ???

Thanks to all who dropped by yesterday! The answer to yesterday's post was, AWE. Mind you, Lenny suggested that she felt 'abducted' which I thought was pretty cool. Nice one, Lenny!

Nili squints at the clock, wondering if it's possible for the hands to slow down when she does. She holds her hands out in front of her--dirty fingernails--then scrapes the dirt out from below her thumb nail with her right incisor, spits it onto her fingers, and rubs it on her jeans. No one's home anyway. She grabs the nearest magazine, hubbie's Motor Monster, and flicks through with a sigh. She looks at the clock again. She swears it's got a face, like the man on the moon. She gets up and goes to the fridge, opens it, and scans its contents for something sweet. Nothing bloody sweet. She clicks her tongue and searches her loft for the remote control. She spots it in the cat's bed, grabs it, blows off some cat hair and swtiches the TV on, changes channels without comprehending anything she sees, then swtiches it off again. I guess I'll just make myself another coffee.

So, can you guess the emotion/feeling (a noun) depicted in this piece that begins with the letter ‘B’? Please nip over to Nicole's blog to read her interpretation of our B-prompt word. Here’s the link!
