"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.

He also wanted to check it out.

At that moment, her phone vibrated in her pocket.

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