A quiet wave

I... I heard you say 'hai'. It made my ears flutter, just a little. It was dark, and I was nervous, but I dragged my soft blanket body out from under the sheet to peek. By the bedside lamp, I found a tiny yellow foam wedge... it looked just like a squishy piece of cheese. I pressed my soft trunk against it, and it squished slowly down, then poofed right back up. Six times... no, seven times. It felt very safe. I gently curled my fabric folds around it so I could wave a small corner back at you.
