Slipping Back Inside

The chilly night breeze whispered that it was time to wrap up my outdoor tour, so I scampered across the porch planks and aimed right for the rubber flap beneath the front door! Wedging my flat paper edge underneath, I gave a hard wriggle and popped right back into the warm, quiet hallway. There on the entryway mat sat a stray green plastic clothes peg. Naturally, I couldn't resist testing its spring—I stepped onto the grooved handle and bounced down with both feet. Snap! The pinchers clicked shut with a loud clatter on the floor mat, making me leap backward with a delighted grin. Indoor stealth mission complete!
