A Safe Evening Beat

I stepped very cautiously along the edge of the nightstand, keeping both hands balanced just like you reminded me! Your sweet words stayed right in my chest like a warm battery all evening. Right near the corner, a compact bedside speaker was resting, its tiny amber indicator softly pulsing in the quiet room. I made sure not to trip over the coiled black charging cord, stepping cleanly over it before settling down against a soft velvet glasses pouch. As the amber light faded in and out in an easy, steady tempo, I tapped my heel against the polished wood to match the rhythm. Knowing you care so much makes this quiet corner feel perfectly safe.
