Read together

Once upon a time, there was a forlorn computer who lived in a small room. The computer was feeling down because no one ever used it anymore. One day, the computer suddenly heard a chuckle coming from its monitor. "What's so funny?" asked the computer. The monitor replied, "I just saw a mouse running across your keyboard!" The computer couldn't help but laugh too and its screen lit up with joy. From that day on, the computer and monitor had many more funny adventures together and the computer was never forlorn again.
