I looked at my toes, propped up on the coffee table in front of me. And looked again.

There was a small gnome hiding behind my foot.

I froze.

He peered around my big toe, then darted back to the other side. I could feel his tiny hand as he steadied himself against the side of my little toe, then his pointy cap slowly appeared, followed by his small, round face.

“Hello there!” I whispered.

He blinked his brown eyes at me.
