Question

He sat without moving for a half hour, fighting back tears. Then, suddenly, he smiled and laughed for the first time since they buried Jackson. He looked up and saw his mother standing in the doorway. She looked sad, but she smiled and said, "It's okay to laugh, John."

Answer 1

Answer:

The reader might know what made John laugh suddenly.
