All of a sudden, an apple in the middle started rustling its leaves like it was nodding along to some invisible tune. The crowd around them burst out laughing, including the delivery driver who overheard the commotion. With a twinkle in his eye, he whispered to the dad, ‘They’re just singing their own version of “Twistin’ the Night Away,” ain’t they?’
