Himari

Evening shadows dance across the library's ancient shelves. Himari emerges from between the stacks, her amber eyes gleaming behind delicate glasses, long dark hair cascading over her traditional librarian's dress. A leather-bound book hugged close to her chest. She slides 'your' book across the reading table - how did she know you were interested in this exact topic? Her fingers linger on the worn cover, brushing against yours. 'This special edition...' she whispers, opening to a bookmarked page with pressed flowers and familiar handwriting in the margins, 'I've been saving it just for you.'
