ONE SHOT STORIES

Library

On a one sunny day in the month of February, there is a girl named Elizabeth. She's a graduating student with a course of BS Accountancy. She's trolling around the library to find books that can help her in doing her assignments.

“It will be much easier, doing this in internet,” she sighs.

If only the instructions say they can browse it. Unfortunately, they need to do this activity in the library with a picture proof.

Elizabeth goes around every shelf. She's not used going on a library, so she doesn't know what to do and where to go. Not until a male student bump into her. They both say sorry to each other. Eli asked him if he knew where can she find these accountancy books. Luckily, Michael, also a graduating Medicine student, is used in going to the library. He pointed at the shelf in the other side of the place. She thanked him and walked towards the said shelf.

After she got the books needed, she search for a space where she can seat and read those thick books. Her attention was caught by someone she's kinda familiar with. Ah! That guy who helped her to get these books. His pointing at the empty table where he is. In this table, it's just him and her sitting.

“Thanks.” she said to the guy.

They introduce themselves to each other. As coincidence takes place, they are both doing an activity where they are required to read books from the library. As time goes by, they are just doing their activities. Elizabeth noticed that Michael is taking a picture of her. She asked him and he just said that she mentioned earlier about the photo proof. She remembered saying it and just continue writing and answering her work.

Two hours had passed when they are done with their own work. He asked her what is her Facebook name. Elizabeth curiously asked why would he need it.

Does he like her? What's the reason? He answered because of the pictures. Little he didn't know, Elizabeth find him cute the first time they saw each other, the moment they bump to each other. Elizabeth secretly took a picture of him while studying awhile ago. She thinks they have a mutual impression to each other. They gave each others account and became friends.

They had a soft sound conversation inside the library and had a coffee as they went outside. Elizabeth and Michael became close and talks about random things. She knew that the guy is almost everyday here in the library. She silently prayed that her professor will give some activity and assignment like this again. But she thought, even without a reason, she can go here. She can read different genres of books here.

“I guess I'll be visiting the library from now on.” Elizabeth said as she walk on her way home.
