The chime rang after the door to the bookshop had opened to reveal a young woman with long golden hair. She was clutching a book to her chest as she smiled broadly at the woman sitting behind the counter.
"Hello, Nine!" Estelle greeted and joined her there.
"You hadn't visited for a week, is everything going well?" The woman greeted back.
Estelle's smile waned for a little bit, "Yeah… I was just busy with something," she muttered.
The woman's eyes glinted for a moment.
"Hmmm…"
Changing the topic, Estelle looked around them to find the black cat which was always lazing around the shop but found nothing.
"Is Luna not around? I don't see her," she said.
"Oh, you know that cat. She likes to stroll…" The woman answered as she leaned on the edge of the counter.
