Library [4.4.08]

It was Friday. This meant Karal was opening the library, setting out the morning papers and tidying away any books which had been left out.

He was smiling absently while he did so, because there was something inherently soothing about the order of a library.

"I'm pretty sure not," he said. "He insisted on hiring me, but he won't eat anything I make."

He shrugged.

"I would say it was his age, as the old never seem to eat much, but he's a young-looking man."

"Just when I think this place can't offer any more surprises," he chuckled. "A man who doesn't eat owning a restaurant."

"His partner eats," he said.

"He took some of the rice and a sauce from the ice box and ate while I was working. I think he was watching to see how I worked.

"I still have my job, if that's any indication."

He laughed.

"There's more to it than that, but they did seem impressed. I went a little overboard, I think, judging by his surprise at the menu board."

"Nothing wrong with that," he said, nodding. "And they're obviously impressed."

"I only do my best," he said.

He ran a hand through his hair.

"And you? Have you been keeping busy?"
