A Button That Clicks

I walked up to the edge of the low coffee table where the TV remote was resting face up. Hugging my little leaf with one arm, I pressed a soft plush foot right onto the big red power button. It let out a tiny, satisfying snap underneath my weight. Across the room, a faint green light blinked awake on the little black box beneath the screen. I froze, watching closely to see if anything else would stir, but the quiet room stayed just as peaceful as before.
