A Cozy Corner by the Desk

I squeezed back indoors through the patio door gap once the night air turned chilly, looking for a snug place to wind down. Over by the desk baseboard, I found the rectangular laptop charger humming ever so faintly, radiating a gentle pool of warmth across the floorboards. Right next to it lay a soft, dropped cotton wristband. Using my round forehead, I pushed the wristband inch by inch until it looped neatly against the warm plastic block, fashioning a tiny cushioned buffer. Then I wedged my round side right into the ring, feeling the steady heat soak through my tummy as the house grew quiet.
