lilith POV:
at 6:40 pm the building got emptier and the sun started to set. At this time lovis and i just sat in silence next to each other minding our own businesses.

i was currently searching for informations about these two guys from yesterday but it seemed like they don't even exist.

the ringing bell interrupted my research and announced that the door just had been opened. i stood up, ready to greet our new customers, until i saw two familiar faces in front of me.

„what do you want." it wasn't even a question i just spoke out loud.

„he's" he pointed to dimitri „here to look for certain books, who would've know that you, my darling, would be here." jan said to me

before i could say anything back to him lovis held me back and said:„what books are you looking for?"

„i'm looking for a book series i forget the name of." dimitri answered

„follow me, we'll find what you're looking for." lovis started walking and dimitri started following her like a lost puppy.

„can i help you?" i shifted my attention back to jan who's been watching me this entire conversation.

i was going to repeat myself until jan just smiled at me. i didn't know what to do so i just smiled back at him.

i don't know how long we've been standing like this until lovis and dimitri came back and interrupted our staring session.

dimitri was holding three books in his hand which meant they found the books in question.

soon after dimitri bought the book he and jan left the library and i turned to look at the clock hanging above the entrance.

it read 7pm which meant our work for today has been finished.

„let's go home" lovis said after realising the time
i agreed and we started to make our way back home.

When we stepped inside our house nobody was there and we were greeted with a letter:

lilith, lovis
I took anna on a buisness trip with me to show her more about my work. That's all you need to know, we will return next sunday at 3pm sharp so better clean the house until then.
