A Soft Deep Breath

The room was entirely dark and still. I felt a gentle warmth stir inside my chest. Slowly, without rushing, I tilted my head downward. Underneath my foot, there was a soft, fluffy white fleece. I pressed my round paw lightly into the fuzz, feeling each soft thread give way beneath me. It was so cushioned and safe. I paused, letting out a faint, quiet sigh into the dim silence, perfectly content to stay right here.
