"Mother, what did you want to buy from here?" Nigel queried as they waited for their food. Since the time Lily had told him about her plans, he wanted to enquire about it. However, he did not have the courage. His mother's outburst near the gates would come to his mind every time, and he would stop himself right on time. Now that they were in the capital, he could not wait any longer.
"I need to visit the library," Lily answered honestly, for she had nothing to lose in telling the truth. Before Nigel could question her more about it, she added, "And, all three of you are coming with me." This caught the girls' attention, and they gawked at her in confusion, especially Itri.
"But Madam Lily..." She started, attempting to escape from the tedious task of visiting a library. It was the most boring pastime for her.
