All three people who were busy in their bantering stopped the instance, they heard Bella laughing. Her laugh was mesmerizing, like music in the air. This was the first time they had heard her laughing so carefree.
Her laugh was not mechanical like her walking and talking was. It was ethereal. They all turned towards her, looking at her with dumbfounded expressions. When Bella noticed their gazes on her. She stopped abruptly. Only then did she realise, she was actually laughing. This thought made her surprised too.
"Wow, Bella, you can laugh," spoke Mike with a surprised face.
Anna elbowed him as she said, "brother Mike wanted to say your laughter is lovely. Would you sing Christmas carols with me?" she asked, walking towards her and holding her hand.
"Christmas carols?" Bella repeated in her same monotonous voice.
