〖 LIBRARY 〗
[Y/n] carefully navigated her way through the rows of shelves, the atmosphere of the library embracing her like a warm, comforting blanket. Soft whispers filled the air as patrons exchanged hushed conversations, their voices blending with the rustle of pages turning and the occasional creaking of wooden floors. As [Y/n] approached the return counter, a sense of tranquility washed over her. She adored this place; it held the stories of countless worlds and adventures, all waiting to be discovered. She gently placed the book on the counter, glancing up to meet the eyes of the librarian. However, her peaceful demeanor was shattered when she stumbled into someone.
Her heart raced as she regained her footing, her embarrassment growing. Feeling her face heat up with embarrassment, [Y/n] quickly bowed and stammered out an apology. But as she looked into the man's eyes, she saw a distant, faraway look in them. It was as though he was lost in another world; his gaze fixed on her with an intensity that sent a shiver down her spine. Staring at the man, she realized how handsome he was, with his thick, black hair that was styled into a low ponytail and his dark skin.
Biting her lip, [Y/n] waved a hand in front of the man's face, snapping her fingers. Finally, he snapped out of his reverie, his eyes refocusing on her. She couldn't help but be curious about his odd behavior. "Are you alright?" The man blinked a few times before shaking his head slightly. "No harm done," he replied. "Just a small bump; no need to worry." Relieved, [Y/n] returned the smile gratefully, a hint of pink creeping onto her cheeks. "I really didn't mean to crash into you; it's just...I was lost in my own thoughts." "Ah, the perils of a busy mind," the man mused, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "It can transport us to places we least expect." Feeling a strange yet pleasant connection, [Y/n] chuckled. "Indeed, it seems that way. I should be more mindful of my surroundings." They stood there, their conversation taking on a friendly and slightly awkward tone. The man's charisma was undeniable, and [Y/n] found herself captivated by her presence.
"Um, excuse me," [Y/n] started, her voice laced with curiosity. "Do I know you by any chance? You seem familiar." A flicker of sadness crossed the man's face, his lips moving as if he were speaking to himself, but his words were too quiet for [Y/n] to hear. The enigmatic smile that played on his lips felt like a warning, and yet she couldn't look away, drawn to his mysterious presence. Breaking free from his daze, the man's eyes seemed to awaken as he gathered his thoughts and finally found his voice. It was as though he had emerged from a deep slumber, bringing forth a long-lost part of himself. With a mix of hesitation and anticipation, he introduced himself, his words carrying a weight of significance.
"Forgive me. My name is Jamil. Jamil Viper," he disclosed as if the name itself held a special significance. "You may not remember me, but when I was younger, I was entrusted with the care of Kalim. Our time together has been severed by time, becoming faded memories stored away in the depths of my mind." Jamil's words flowed hurriedly, filled with a sense of urgency and longing. It was evident that the memories he held dear were slipping away like sand through his fingers. [Y/n], caught off guard by this sudden revelation, struggled to recall any connection to this enigmatic man before her. Her mind raced, desperately searching for a thread of familiarity. 'He takes care of Kalim? Why can't I remember anything about him?' If we knew each other then, why is it that I can't recall a single moment spent together?' [Y/n] thought, her mind grappling with the elusive memories that seemed just out of reach. Despite her best efforts, the past remained shrouded in mystery, leaving her with a mix of unease and intrigue about their shared history.
