Because of that, Nico held his paws still while lanterns hissed and the alley smelled like warm rain. The first shamrock rustled. Because of that, he waited longer, tail twitch-twitching, until the second shook silver drops from its leaf. At last the third clover gave a tiny clap. “Boom!” Nico tapped once, twice, thrice—and the gate sprang wide to music. If you spot his clover bundle, can you guess which leaf clapped last?
