I Think So

It must be Al in there. They swap roles.

Vio cursed in her heart.

"W... Who are you?" She asked as she pulled herself away from the table.

Al who saw the change stopped laughing. His brow furrowed in surprise. "What do you mean, Vio?"

"Al never laughed out loud like you did just now."

Al's frown deepened. For a moment he seemed to be deep in thought. Before finally one understanding made his laughter burst again.

What does he think I'm joking about?, Vio thought.

"Wait... Wait..." Between laughter, Al raised his left hand in the air, as if asking Vio for time to finish his amusement.

Makes Vio frown. "You laugh at me!" She said.

"Haha... Of course. You think I'm not me because I..." He laughed again, "Because I laughed? Huh! Seriously! That's sad, Vio. I should be crying instead of laughing." This time his face was serious.

Vio felt bad, so she turned her gaze to the cup in front of her.
