Commas are punctuation marks that separate and help organize words, clauses, and concepts in a sentence. They usually follow participial phrases that introduce a sentence.
An adverbial phrase such as "After eating lunch at the cafeteria" at the beginning of a sentence, should be followed by a comma. Nonrestrictive clauses such as "which was due to take place on Tuesday" are should be set off by commas. If a dependent clause is used to introduce a sentence, it should be followed by a comma.

Mom was in the kitchen. I flashed a bright smile at her, waiting for her to wish me and give me a hug. But my smile soon vanished as my mother started rolling with laughter. I was confused.

I started wondering what was wrong with her, and my worries grew even more when she stopped laughing suddenly. With a concerned face she came towards me. She tapped my cheek twice and asked, “Honey, are you sleepwalking?”
