Chapter 147: Giggles
A/N: Song For The Background ~ Flight Of The Inner Bird By Yekezkel Raz
☆Soft Giggles☆
At the sudden foreign sound, I flicked my eyes open, forgetting what I was about to do instantly. For the mere sound of giggle echoed around the lobby. I looked around in an attempt to find it but I couldn’t.
Where is it coming from?
Suddenly I felt someone pass me, running into my peripheral vision and I stilled when I saw bouncing amber hair, waving back and forth, long and reaching her tiny feet, her hold on her gown raising as she ran in slow motion. I was instantly captivated by this little creature, I did not know why but I wanted to keep hearing her giggles, and so I took a step forward, swiftly following the giggling girl.
It felt like she was calling me, although it sounded like she was having a heartfelt run, she was happy as if someone was chasing her in a game, but when I looked behind me I saw no one.
Who was meant to be chasing her?
I followed her all the way from the lobby into the garden as she kept running, I was unable to keep up for I was still running and so I raised my gown and chased after her, her giggles becoming the loudest and before I knew it I found myself smiling, I did not know why but that single sound from her was just so uplifting, it was childlike, full of happiness, happiness that weighed in my very heart and it felt like it would explode.
But my smile suddenly fell when she was nowhere to be seen, I didn’t know why but I became worried, looking around the woods of tall trees in a spin.
