Ethan DashiellI feel like I forgot something.
"Hmm..." what could it be?
"Ah!" Shane! Nakalimutan kong magpaalam kay Shane na pupunta muna akong library. I bet she's angry at me right now.
Sorry, Shane. I'll make it up to you later.
Anyways...
I look at the tall building before me. The whole Rihito Building is shaped like a cylinder with a fiberglass roof.
I went inside to look around and I swear every bibliophile would want to live here. The whole library have a warm ambiance in it due to the sunlight coming from the fiberglass ceiling. Shelves of books were stacked up so they almost reach the cieling. There's also a ventilation system so it's not that hot.
A spiral staircase is built to reach the upper shelves. There were pixies flying around and tinkering through the books. They must be the librarian's helpers. There were coffeemakers and water dispenser near each table and the seats were convertible to beds.
How comfortable...
But even though this place is really nice, students seem to not really visit the library that much. Just like my old school, they almost close the library because nobody goes in there except me and five other students including Athena. It's a shame that people don't realize the importance of books.
Well, enough about that. I came here for a reason.
I start browsing through the shelves.
"The school's rulebook can be found in the library. We like to call it Borderbook. Get it? Cause Horizon Academy, you know border between the sky and sea? Anyways, it's a big book so you can easily find it."
Thanks for the very detailed explanation, Simon. But with all these books in this library, how am I supposed to find one single book? Furthermore, how am I supposed to know which is big in here? Does he mean 'big' like it has many pages? Or 'big' like it's wide? Ah, seriously?!
After a while of browsing, I realize how impossible this task is. So I decided to get help.
"Umm...excuse me?"
"Yes, dear?" the man sitting in the counter answered. His long straight black hair was tied up in a high ponytail and his wearing a red long sleeved polo underneath a black waistcoat. If you ask me, he looks more like a bartender than a librarian. His nameplate has the words Jaden Hamada written on it. And he looks like he's still in his twenties with his slim body and prominent features. He's wearing a monocle on his right eye.
Strange...I thought the librarian's name is Zack. Is he another assistant librarian.
"Are you...the librarian?" I asked.
"Well, darling. Do I don't look the part?" He said with a flick of his hand. Oh, he bends that way.
"I'm sorry, I thought Sir Zack is the librarian."
"Oh, he is. Just not in this library," he smiled.
"May...iba pa pong library?" Simon didn't tell us about that.
"Well, apparently Horizon Academy have two libraries. The one I manage and the other..." he looked at me straight in the eyes and smiled. "Well, off-limits."
