...***...
Doorbell break. After failing to borrow a book from the library this morning, Rei was lucky not to get punished for the help of his countryman who turned out to have borrowed a book.
As soon as the bell rang, Rei immediately went to visit the toilet before continuing his steps towards the library room.
Not long after, Rei returned from the toilet. He briefly visited his class to find Marcell. The man was with Lionel, a tall, quiet but annoying guy.
"Marcell, are you going to the library now?" rei asked as soon as he met the man.
"I'll go to the cafeteria with the others for a while, after that I'll go to the library" he replied.
"Then I go first."
"Yes, please."
Rei left him. Lionel was silent looking at Rei who was about to leave him with Marcell who was busy checking his finances.

"Rey!" Elvina whispered as she waved her hand towards Rei as soon as she saw her cousin arrive at the library room.
Rei smiled at Elvina who was also visiting there to look for reading materials. He immediately approached the girl who was with his friend.
"Hi, are you looking for a book here?" ask Rei.
"Yes. I'm looking for a book to read." Elvina hidden.
"Do you know him?" A woman who came with Elvina asked.
"Oh, introduce. This is my cousin, Rei." Elvina introduced him to her friend. "Rei it's seventh grade, our underclassman."
"so apparently. Greetings then." The girl smiled kindly towards Rei.
"Greetings."
"What are you looking for here, by the way?" ask Elvina.
"Packbooks for seventh grade are there. You just have to look for it where you need it, and in order for you to lend it you have to make a member card. For that you can take care of it at the table, later."
"All right, thank you."
"Not a problem."
Rei moved from his place. Stepping into the hallway shown by Elvina just now.
Elvina smiled because after years of attending different schools, they finally met at the same Junior High School. Yes, even if it's only one year, because in the next year he'll graduate. At least, Elvina was happy to go to school with him.
Rei walked down the aisle full of shelves filled with books high above him. He looked for the book he wanted to borrow and immediately collected all the books he had in his hand.
"This, and this." Rei grabbed the last two books. After he finished taking it all, he decided to return to his class immediately.
He stepped over to the main table where the librarian was sitting there.
After taking care of everything, Rei stepped out of the library and walked back to his class with a stack of books in his grasp. Rei walked in the corridor, there was nothing he could talk to because he was just walking alone, until Miranda suddenly appeared and grabbed a portion of the book in his grasp.
"Mirishou?" Rei was quite surprised by his sudden appearance.
"If you need help, don't look for me next time." Miranda walked beside Rei with half the books she had taken from Rei's hand.
"Yes, thank you."
"Not a problem." Miranda smiled. The girl escorted Rei to her classroom.
"Thank you again."
"Yes, then I'm leaving."
"I'll treat you to a meal next time."
"I'll wait."
