Inanimate object

It is often called a pearl.  The smooth texture when I open the package appeals to my hand.  It fits perfectly, it feels just right.  The rough rigid red seams run across my fingers as I choose my grip. I love to just sit and snap it right out of my hand, as it makes a spinning motion in the air until it lands back in my hand.  Making a perfect release towards its destination and ending with a popping sound that can be heard across the field. This is what I want every time it leaves my hand.
