Cynthia Young asked seriously, causing Aiden Hayes's smile to freeze, "What?"
"Blinking continuously might be due to trachoma, or it could be caused by inflammation. You should go to the hospital sooner rather than later to avoid it becoming a bigger problem." Cynthia Young spoke with seriousness, as if she were a school disciplinarian, leaving no trace of sarcasm or humor.
"Pfft!" Bella was the first to succumb, covering her mouth as she laughed, "Sorry, sorry." She didn't mean to laugh, but seeing Aiden Hayes's first attempt at flirting end so disastrously felt hilarious, and she couldn't stop laughing.
Aiden Hayes put on a woeful face, "Bella, you're laughing too loud."
"I... I didn't mean to, but... hahaha." Bella clutched her stomach, her shoulders shaking with laughter.
Damian Sinclair, worried she might strain herself, reached out to pat her back to ease her breathing.
