Harith is walking around the busy streets of the Moniyan Empire, which is massive. There are lots citizens that populate the place. There's also many amazing designs of buildings and houses littered inside it.

But, Harith was bored.

He's currently looking on the ground with his eyes half-lidded, kicking random pebbles or rocks lightly, as he walked towards them.

He kept walking and walking until his feet hopefully takes him to a random place.

He doesn't really mind wherever place he'll go. He just want time to pass.

He came across a library, he stopped for a moment, and analyzed the building before going in.

The library is built made out of bricks, and has many large clear windows on it, which showcase all of the unique collection of books they have in their bookshelves. The building itself doesn't really look too old, but not too modern either.

Now, that's intriguing.

Harith walked towards the entrance, he pushed one of the glass double doors, and went in.

"Wow," Harith's eyes glistened, he's so overwhelmed by the amount of books this place has to offer.

He doesn't know where to start.

"I guess... I'll start to that corner over there~!" he happily pointed to the said direction, while talking to no one.

He approached the tall bookshelf and grabbed a random book, which left a small gap where you can see the other side of it.

Harith looked down, he started to skim through the book a little bit. It's a fairytail book, how nostalgic. He glanced up at the gap the bookshelf left.

There on the other side, there's a boy reading a book. He's sitting comfortably on a purple bean bag chair with his legs crossed. There's also a small table next to him, and on top of it, there's a cup of drink, a staff and a hat. Huh, and the drink looks like... milk tea?

Harith finally snapped back into reality, he stopped gazing on the other side, and tried keeping his attention on the book he's holding.

Staring is weird. Harith shook his head, he should stop it.

The next day, Harith came back, he just finished the book he was reading, and decided to return it.

He went to the counter and talked to the person in-charge. The transaction went smoothly as he thought he would.

Harith sighed, and bore his eyes on the corner. The guy is here again.

Days went by, everytime he came back to the library, he sees the same guy in the same spot again and again.
