When I looked at the staff standing in front of me, waiting to hear what I was going to say, I came to my senses.
I may not know what to do, but there's no need to look suspicious.
"Oh, I was lost in my thoughts... sorry. I'll just go upstairs and look at some books."
He bowed his head slightly without changing the smile on his face. Then he turned around and headed toward another person he saw.
As he left, I slowly made my way up the spiral staircase to the first floor and began to wander through the shelves, looking at the titles of the books and what they were about.
And so the minutes began to pass. After fifteen or twenty minutes of wandering around the library for no apparent reason... I had taken at least a brief look at almost every shelf on the first floor.
I couldn't help frowning slightly as I went up to the second floor without giving it much thought.
