A Soft Step Inside

Everything was still, and then... my little paw gave a twitch. I blinked and looked into the room. Right in the middle sat a tiny white television humming with pictures, perched on its black stand. Slowly, carefully, I lifted my foot and took a real, quiet step forward. The smooth red floor tapped against my toes. A blue friend in a pointy party hat stood quietly by the screen, watching. I paused, tilting my head, and touched the doorway edge with one hand. It is real... I can truly walk.
