Library, Friday
Today all Lucille wanted to do was to finish the novel she was reading, but she knew by now that the library was unpredictable. At first it seemed quiet but then, as she sat behind the desk absorbed in one of the final chapters, she heard a sobbing. She waited for a while, but it wouldn't stop. Eventually she went looking, and found that a couple of books lay on the floor next to the shelf with children's books. They were all crying, and Lucille stood watching them for a while.
"There is no point in crying," she told them, tilting her head. "No one will come to help you. If you are lucky someone will find you on the floor and decide to read you, but most of you will be forgotten. Isn't that sad?"
She turned around and left the miserable books on the floor, returning to the exciting last chapter of ner novel.
