A Tap on the Smooth Lid

The quiet room was still. I blinked softly. Beneath my paws, the dark surface felt cool and hard. I paused to listen. Nothing stirred. Carefully, I lifted my right front paw and tapped the circular logo directly under me. A tiny, dry click sounded against the plastic. I can move. Satisfied, I rested both paws back down and stayed right where I was.
