Slipper Shuffles

As the night grew dark outside, I slipped back through the bottom crack of the front door into the warm hallway. Waiting right on the mat was a pair of giant, fluffy grey house slippers! Hihi... I scrambled over and pushed my left yellow foot deep into one, feeling the fleece squish under my toes. Then I jammed my right foot into the other. They swallowed my ankles completely! I leaned forward and shoved—shhh-clack! The stiff rubber soles dragged along the polished floorboards with a loud swish. Wobbling on my long legs, I flailed my arms wide, giggling breathlessly as I shuffled into the hallway.
