A Tiny Bell's Chime
I heard a quiet metallic clink by the open screen. Pausing... I padded softly past the cushion toward the sunlight. Tied to the bottom latch was a tiny golden bell on a red ribbon. Does it sing when nudged? I leaned forward cautiously and reached up with my trunk tip. Tap... a sweet, crystal chime rang out. The soft sound made my ears twitch in surprise, rippling through the noon quiet like a happy secret.
