Laughter in the Chaos

Amal never expected an online platform to bring so much genuine joy into her life. What had started as a distraction was slowly turning into something she looked forward to every single day. The room would fill with people from different places, each adding their unique personality to the mix, but it was always Ducks, Ghost, and Hitler who made her laugh the hardest. They would stream music, crack the most ridiculous jokes, and somehow always make the most out of every conversation.

Ducks, with his endless sarcasm and funny commentary, would have everyone in stitches, and Ghost, ever the warm presence, made sure everyone felt included. Hitler, even with his cold front, would toss in a biting remark here and there, adding a strange balance to the chaos. Amal found herself laughing more than she had in a long time, genuinely feeling light—like a burden had lifted from her chest, even if just for those few moments in that online room.

With time, Amal noticed herself growing closer to Ghost. He had been kind and approachable since day one, always offering a friendly comment or asking how she was doing. His warmth reminded her of what it felt like to be cared for, something she hadn't felt in a long time since losing Uzair. The more they talked, the more she found herself opening up to him. Slowly but surely, she began trusting him in ways she hadn't trusted anyone in a long time.
