"I don't have classes this afternoon. I'll help you look for them" With that said, Carly began darting between the bookshelves, eagerly searching for the books.

Ophelia gave her a brief glance, withdrew her gaze, and began searching for books herself.

Time slipped away quietly, accompanied by the soft rustle of turning pages.

Kenneth was calling, and she didn't dare ignore it.
