Her father is hardly ever home, working long hours in the city while her mother spends most of her time grading papers from all of her high school students. She opens the door quietly, but there is no need. Her mother is still awake. She's curled up in the living room reading her latest adventure novel wrapped on the comfy (and dare she call ugly) recliner her father just had to have. Her curly auburn hair is up in a bun with a few stray strands spiraling free as her eyes intently scan the new Kindle she received for her birthday only a few weeks ago. It's safe to say she has become a little obsessed with it. Can't say Sera can blame her. She herself escapes to a different world every time s

As for Lisa, it was a good thing that she was fond of reading books which included medicinal books that helped her discern the herbs she had bought that totally looked like a bunch of grasses in Naomi's eyes. Although Naomi was similar to Lisa's fondness over reading books, most of the books she have read were novels of different genres and since she was from a different world, there were a lot of things that were different from each other in the place she was currently in and with the place she came from.

I saw you and Anu clearly, I now really don't understand why I ever trusted you. Even now I don't think Natasha ever drugged you. You are a cheat and a big liar!" Lekan came downstairs, already changed. "Babe," he called. Wunmi turned and frowned but because of Tayo standing there, she placed a fake smile on her face.

Nona raised her head and slammed her book cover as she threw her face towards the window, ignoring Rabel. She desperately didn’t want to leave her friends behind. “Damn it, Nona! Now we’ll be the main characters of our own lives.” “Your life. Mine is 1,000 km away. Now I’m all by myself just for a fucking whim,” Nona said shakily, tears streaming down her eyes.

--- Elsewhere… Nelly Couldn’t Finish the First Page Nelly sat in her room, sadness weighing heavily on her face. She felt as if Naomi had taken Adel from her completely. She stepped out, hesitant, and stopped at Naomi’s door. Her hand trembled as she reached for the handle… then slowly turned it. The room lit up. It was neatly arranged. On the table lay a book Naomi had been reading. She approached and picked it up. The title read: “Your Eyes Found Me – A Novel” She turned off the light and left.

Zamiel was taken earlier from our home by me. I delivered him home. I'm currently in the library. The library room is where I want to read. I then got up and headed to the library room. In case I'm unable to open this second chamber, I'd like to try again. I'm not sure what's within. I was pondering the contents of the second door far too much.

Nova was deeply engrossed in her reading, a non-fiction book on business strategies that she had picked up on a whim. The sound of footsteps interrupted her thoughts, and she looked up to see Lucia entering the room. Franco’s mother was as impeccably dressed as ever, her sleek dark hair styled perfectly, and her sharp features softened only slightly by the faint smile on her lips. And deep down, Nova wondered why she didn't like putting on casual clothes when she was at home. “What are you reading, dear?” Lucia asked as she approached Nova, her tone light yet tinged with curiosity. Nova smiled, holding up the book for her to see. “It’s called The Lean Startup. It’s about how to effectively s

“Why did you do it?” She blinked innocently. “Do what?” “Don’t play dumb. The media leak. The interviews.
