Situation: Leaning on the short end of the table with an ottoman behind me.
Alternative situations: I stood at the end of the table and behind me was the ottoman. I am standing at the end of a table with two chairs to my left at 10 o'clock and a chair and office chair to my right at 2 o'clock.
Question: Which is more closer to me, the table in front or the ottoman on my 5 o'clock direction?
