Library; Wednesday [ 10/02 ]

[ecirpnellehada.livejournal.com]

Adah limped into the library this Wednesday, October the Second, supposedly the Year of Their Lord Two Thousand Seven without the usual armful of books; it was a sad moment for her, really, as she instead had to clutch to a thermos of hot tea to aid in soothing her throat, which was inexplicably sore these past few days. She felt unbalanced without the books. And she let out a soft sigh when she saw the stack of books that needed to be put away on the desk, waiting for her, as though her usual stack was displaced, leaning tower of literature.

She dropped into the chair, looking at them idly, and decided that she'd just read them instead of putting them away.

Adah made a soft, small noise into her arm. She had Japanese homework she should be working on. The jumbled structures of their sentences might help her feel a little back in her crooked place again.

River slipped off the desk, then turned to face Adah, smiling. She took a step backwards, towards the door, then another one. "Dance at the party with me?" She hoped Adah understood by now that River didn't expect anything from her that she couldn't do, that she only asked for things that Adah had a very particular talent for. Still, she was nervous, concerned that she was pushing Adah into a corner and far away, and to chase that away River spun around, before resuming walking backwards.

Adah recalled that one of the first things River had ever remarked to her was how loud Adah's thoughts tended to be, so she didn't worry about the thought that she would, to the best of her abilities, try not reaching the retreating River.

Adah got a quick smile and then River disappeared, quietly slipping out of the door.
