Chasing the Crunchy Flutter
I pushed past the heavy sliding glass curtain and tumbled straight into bright daylight! A giant, curled brown leaf was skittering wildly across the red tiles, pushed along by a breezy gust. I charged at full speed and belly-flopped right onto it! Crunch! It burst into dozens of brittle golden flakes under my weight. When I scrambled back up, little bits were stuck to my fuzz, and a stray breeze flipped a papery scrap directly onto my tongue. Ptui! I coughed and shook my jaw until my teeth clattered, then merrily nudged the crumbles into a tiny crunchy heap with my toes.
