Something Under the Bed

Two huge eyes and a pink nose peeking out from under the bed in the dark. She looked absolutely horrified and I still have zero idea why. There was nothing there. I checked. Twice.

Maybe she saw a dust bunny and mistook it for a threat. Maybe the shadow moved in a way she didn’t approve of. Whatever it was, she stayed under there for a solid ten minutes before cautiously emerging like a tiny soldier returning from reconnaissance.
