"Thanks again," grandma said, waving at me. I nodded. " I'll come by again tomorrow if I get the chance, " I told her. She laughed. "Okay, see you then!" My grandma ran a small library in my city and I worked there about everyday. It was practically my job. If I didn't want to help anyway, I would feel guilty because she was the one who paid for my apartment.

I pushed the door open, while putting my ear buds on, then I picked my favorite playlist to listen to while heading home. I hum to the music. It was raining, which was nice because less people were out talking, working, begging, whatever. I could listen to my music in peace. I looked at the walls of the buildings, noticing the graffiti with foul language. I shook my head, then took a left.

Ugh, skip. I thought while skipping one of the songs that played. I stared at my phone while looking at the news. "Hmm.." Then, out of nowhere, a  boy ran straight into me. "Argh, watch it!" I yelled. I looked down. He was on the sidewalk, breathing heavily, staring at me, books surrounding him. " S-sorry, " he apologized. I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes. "Whatever." I moved on, not even helping him up or anything.

"Hey, wait!" He said. I turned to look at him. "What is it? " I asked.
He got up, dusting himself off. "You work at the library, yeah?" He smiled. I nodded slowly. He smiled, again.  "Great! Then you can take these to the library for me." He stuffed the books in a grocery bag, then shoved them into my arms. "No, that's not how it works. Plus, I just got off for the day," I informed him. He chuckled. "Well will you at least show me the way?" I nodded. " follow me. "
