hehe
Playful texted chuckle
Hehe is a written representation of light, often mischievous laughter—softer and more knowing than "haha." It suggests amusement with a hint of slyness or self-satisfaction: Hehe, I knew you'd fall for it.
In texting and online communication, hehe often signals playful teasing or mild embarrassment rather than genuine hilarity.
