Novel & Cerita A Book Apart Books

Maybe our connection wasn’t meant to be, so no matter how we were brought together we still didn’t end up together. A few moments later, I’d found the books I wanted to buy. I placed them in my arms, then walked over to Kevin, who was sitting on the reading sofa. This bookstore has a tiny reading room with only two reading sofas separated by a small round table. A reading lamp stands beside each sofa. On the table sits a small flowerpot serving as decoration. The reading room floor is carpeted, and next to my sofa are two vending machines.

"Mrs. Crowe, are you sure you want me to cancel your flight ticket for moving abroad with Mr. Crowe in a week?" Milena Brooks' voice came through the phone, sounding confused. She was Asher Crowe's assistant. Gwyneth Payne stood on the balcony. She glanced at the withered trees below and made her decision. "Yes. Book me a flight to my parents' place for the same day and get Liana a flight overseas for that day, too. I'll see them off to settle down overseas in a week, then head back to my parents' place."

The woman climbed a short ladder and began pulling down a few books. “These should help,” she said, setting five large, dusty tomes on a nearby table. “Sorry about the condition they’re ancient. Let me know if you need anything.” “Thank you,” Anna said as the woman walked away. Rhea and Anna sat cross-legged on the floor beside the table, surrounded by the stack of heavy books. Their covers were worn, their spines cracked, and the pages yellowed with time. Each had a unique title: 'Tales of the Mystical Creatures', 'Powers', 'Hidden Behind the Voice', and two others with faded letters too difficult to read.

Melinda's and Kieran's sharp, piercing eyes, scanned the endless rows of books. Zora led them around the library, pointing out the different sections and genres. There were books on philosophy, science, art, and history, each one meticulously cataloged and arranged on the shelves. The titles were written in elegant calligraphy, and the bindings were richly adorned with gold leaf and embossed lettering. Kieran and Melinda were overwhelmed by the sheer size of the collection, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the sheer amount of knowledge that was contained within these walls.

I stopped walking and walked towards the shelf on my left. I tilted my head sidewards to read the titles of the different books in front of me. They're too many I wanted to read something that's worth my time. I was looking at the books arranged on my eye level. A rainbow-colored spine of the book caught my attention. I pulled the book slowly. The nail of my pointing finger touched the top edge of the book as it easily popped in front of me. It created an inch of a space where the book was inserted. I almost had a heart attack when someone on the other side of the shelf grinned in front of me.

At least there, I can have peace. When I arrived at the garden, I felt the peace hugging me. 'Finally.' Away from those stabbing gazes, away from that annoying expression of Rosine, away from that indifferent male lead. Amongst the books I brought with me, there's one with an inconspicuous book with a simple red cover. "From One Space to Another" is the title of the book. It is a romance story about a girl who can teleport from one place to another and a boy who was from another parallel universe.

Typical library for sure. ßenlong then walks slowly staying vigilant as he is aware of the guardian of this floor will come out and give them a surprise attack. Alfi looks at his surroundings and he feels familiar with the back of the books arranged on the bookshelves he passed. As he is curious, he gets off from ßenlong and approaches one bookshelf in front of him. He then takes a book with red back. And his prejudice is right. “I... It’s...” He is shivering by looking at the cover of the book.

I’ve ordered some supplements for you. [I know I was wrong. Can we just start over?] I didn’t reply. Instead, I muted his messages and instructed the nurses to transfer me to a VIP ward, making it clear I didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone. Lionel still wouldn’t relent. He started calling repeatedly to say he wanted to see me. Annoyed, I finally answered. “Look, I don’t want to see you right now, Lionel. Let me get better, and then we’ll talk about our divorce agreement. Deal?”

After some hesitation, I continued, "Get something cheaper. I remember that there's an underground wholesale market nearby. You can get some clothes there, and I'll pay you back later." Daniel remained silent once I finished speaking. He only nodded after some time. While we were waiting for the clothes to be delivered, Daniel looked at me as if he wanted to say something. I gave him a puzzled look. After a long time, he finally decided to speak, "Henry, after you went bankrupt, my wife and I got divorced because she thought that I didn't have the money… But don't blame yourself. I just had bad luck, so it's not your fault.

I noticed all the different categories and different sections the books were placed in. With ease, Agatha found each book and I held out my arms as she gathered the books into them. Some of the titles were written in languages I couldn’t read, and some were just… absurd. ‘Werebear physiology’, ‘Werebear magic rituals’, ‘Werebear sexua’-nope not reading it. Just shuffle forward behind the nice kind lady. She stacked a few books labeled ‘Werebear history’ and ‘Werebear proper stamina management’, into my arms, before leading me somewhere else.
