The Amber Button
I found a smooth amber button hiding right under the edge of a coaster! It caught the lamplight like a drop of warm honey. I nudged it with both paws, rolling it gently across the polished wood. It didn't clatter; it just slid along with a quiet hum. Right next to the books was a soft knit mitten left unfolded. I pushed the button neatly inside the cuff and curled up right beside it. It is perfectly smooth, completely round, and makes my quiet corner feel just right.
