My toes tingled first! I looked down and noticed I wasn't just frozen mid-leap anymore. Carefully, I bent my left knee, tested my weight on the craggy grey base, and reached my fingertips forward to tap the pink edge of the 'FLOAT' letters standing right beside me. A tiny clinking sound echoed—I really moved it! I bounced lightly on the stone pedestal, balancing with a wide grin, absolutely full of energy.#@@
