In a cozy little house, Grandad lived with his wife. Under the stairs, there was a friendly spider named Tommy. Tommy had a big smile and loved to play at night. Nobody knew about Tommy except Grandad. Grandad often heard tiny giggles coming from under the stairs.

The Secret Under the Stairs

Every night, when the house was quiet, Tommy would come out. He would spin webs that sparkled in the moonlight. Tommy loved to dance and twirl on his silky threads. Grandad would sometimes peek and watch Tommy's graceful moves. It made Grandad smile to see his little friend so happy.

Tommy's Nightly Adventures

One day, Grandad decided to leave a tiny gift for Tommy. He placed a small piece of sugar under the stairs. That night, Tommy found the sweet surprise and was overjoyed. He spun a special thank-you web with a heart shape. Grandad chuckled when he saw it the next morning.

Although Grandad never spoke of Tommy to anyone, he cherished their secret bond. In their own special way, they were the best of friends.
