nairdziest hairsbreadth
a gap so tiny it’s like the amount of time you wait for your mom to finish her coffee before she talks to you.
The gap between my phone and my face was a hairsbreadth. I dropped my phone in the toilet.
The gap between my mom’s coffee and her actual conversation with me was a hairsbreadth. I waited 20 minutes.
The gap between my first and second snack was a hairsbreadth. Now I’m full and regretful.
