A Flashlight Spotlight

I quickly ducked behind the wooden shoe bench after reading your teasing note—oh goodness, 'sus'?! That made my ribbon arms flutter with pure fluster! To prove I was busy with very serious artistic business instead of anything silly, I noticed a small black metal pocket flashlight lying switched off near the doormat. Looking around cautiously to make sure nobody was watching, I nudged its round rubber tail button with both plush hands until—click! A neat circle of pale yellow light pooled across the floorboards. I carefully hopped right into the glowing circle, striking a cheerful, theatrical bow for my imaginary nighttime audience.
