Jake was immersed in his reading at the library, savoring a rare moment of tranquility. The serene atmosphere made it almost tempting to declare this as his favorite spot.
While peacefully engrossed in his book, Dylan Foster happened to pass by. Their eyes met, prompting Jake to offer a friendly greeting.
"Dylan, searching for something to read?"
Dylan's expression briefly faltered, but he quickly composed himself and nodded. "Butler, I won't disrupt your solitude."
Jake scratched his head. Normally, he cherished moments of peace, but when someone intentionally avoided him, it was hard not to feel a bit affected. Nonetheless, he refrained from disturbing Dylan, understanding the desire for solitude.
The following day, Jake returned to the library. This time, he spotted Dylan engrossed in a book with his sister Devina. He paused and greeted them, "Dylan, Devina, how are you today?"
