Novel & Cerita What Happens If You Lose A Library Book

Chapter 7: Finders Keepers DAYS passed by quickly after the library incident that Crostelia encountered. Up until now she still has no idea about what happened to her nor about the book that the librarian told her to keep. She didn’t want to but she still kept in the end although she was hesitating as the librarian wouldn’t let her to put it back on the bookshelf anymore where it only got covered with dust while guilt tripping her that once she put it back, the book will end up being unnoticed while gathering more dust. Because of being too kind, she brought it back home with her and put it in a cabinet inside her room.

The librarian appears beside the table, looking at the books. You can almost hear the cogs working as she tries to calculate page numbers and approximate speed of reading. She moves away to check on another table, ejecting them for simply trying to avoid going back to class. The bell goes signalling the end of the school day and we close the books, sliding them back onto the shelves. I walk with my friends outside, stopping at the point where I have to leave them to meet Shane and waving them away with the promise to tell them everything later. "Hi." I say when he walks in, he grunts in response, picking up the nearest book and attempting to read it. His eyes reread the same area in the book

But it doesn’t exactly feel like a win-win situation, more like a lose-lose situation. I seriously need to find something uneventful to fill the next 30 minutes before hell begins again today. Hmmm… First things first, I should probably try and prepare for the rest of my day at hell. With that thought in mind I wander over to my locker. Where I grab each book I’ll need for the first half of the day. From my locker I decide to check out the school library to waste some time. Maybe I’ll get lucky and find a good book to read in my spare time.

Hope was resurrecting back into her, and her eyes were fixed on the laptop as he searched. “Nothing. This is strange; there is no entry for this book in the library.” Ariel couldn’t be fazed by the disappointment again. “I could try logging into the general database; they would surely have it.” “Hmm.” Ariel couldn’t have hope again; she knew how it was going to end, and she wasn’t surprised when the book was locked for consumption. “This is strange; we may be rogues, but we always have access to the general library, and all the books are free.” The poor boy had worry lines etched on his forehead, and Ariel shook her head.

When all hopes seemed to be lost, she let her hair fall back to her shoulders and tiredly walked out of the library. The librarian who was still in the building approached her. "Hi," the girl said but Zoe was too tired to reply so she just waved at her. "What were you doing in there so late? You are lucky you did not get locked inside. I was about to leave," the girl continued. "I needed a book to help with my coding." "We are out of stock this week. The Vice President just took the last one his way out." "Wait, what?" Had she just spent almost an hour looking for a book Henry took?

As I closed the door to the library, my gaze fell on the book I had taken and I noticed I had put it back in the wrong order! My eyes widened. He would surely notice it. What should I do?! What if he fires me for snooping too hard around his house and misplacing things? At the thought of that, my heart skipped a beat.

There was a deafening silence the moment I enter the library just as I expected, this is the place that I go with every time I have free time because not everyone goes here, students don't fancy coming into the library anymore and do their research here since google is already available in just a tap of a finger. I went to the far-end corner of the library where I hide an old and very outdated book entitled 'Werewolves Anatomy'. This book is the reason why I keep on coming back to this library, the librarian doesn't let me borrow this book, she said that if I want to read it then I need to read it inside the library since the book is expensive and a limited edition, that being said, I don't

I started packing my things in my bag when the elderly lady poked her head in the door. “Sorry to disturb you young lady but the library is closing in 15 minutes.” “That’s ok I was just packing up ma’am.” “Don’t worry about putting those books away. Just stick them neatly over on that cart. I will get to them tomorrow.” And with that she shut the door. I finished getting my notes and things back in my bag and I grabbed the few books I had and carried them over to a cart that was against a wall by another desk. I placed the books down gently, trying not to create another dust bomb, when I noticed there was no dust on the cart.

Dennis and Bella started walking at the quiet hallway. They first stopped at the library. "As you can see, this is our library. Most of the stuff here are really old, but there are lots of interesting books to read on. And let me tell you a secret. Whenever I have a chance,I sneak out some books without permission from the Librarian. Now that I think about it, I need to return them before graduation." Dennis relayed. "Oh my goodness, the poor librarian must have been worried about those missing books. You should give it back as soon as possible!" Bella reprimanded him.
