I came back to the library exhausted from playing with Sophia, she was nifty and energetic but I wasn't, as much as I wanted to play with her all she wants I needed to catch my breath, and my body still needed not to be driven by something intense or else it would get me quivering too much.
On my way back I spotted William staring at a shelf lost in thoughts. A peculiar position I have never seen him in, whenever he was in the library he was always engaged with something... but just standing there almost like he would freeze the shelf itself into a box of ice with his mere gaze, got me worried.
My features instantly turned into concern, he looked so zoned out that I didn't come close, so instead I stood behind a shelf observing... most especially checking if his eyes were void again but they were their usual crystal green color and I sighed in relief.
