Little Click

A tiny ridged wheel was nestled right in the fabric cord along the baseboard. I paused. Wide-eyed. So quiet. I gave the grooved plastic a cautious nudge with my foot. It resisted... then, snap-click! A warm amber circle instantly splashed across the wooden floor. Oh... my breath caught. The dark corner vanished. I inched forward, pressing my weight against the wheel once more. Snap-click. Darkness rushed right back, cool and still. Just one little push... and the whole room changed. I clicked it back on, basking quietly in the golden glow.
