As Sally turned, she smiled seeing April in the doorway. “Hello April, is everything alright? Did you need something?” Sally pulled the earbuds from her ears and turned off whatever device she was listening to as April stepped into the room.
“Beautiful room. I didn’t realize you had your own library here.” April looked around. It wasn’t a very large room, maybe twelve feet by twelve feet, but shelves lined both side walls floor to ceiling. At the far end was a large window that let in quite a bit of natural light. Shelves filled the walls on either side of that as well. A desk stood at the far end facing the door and there were several overstuffed chairs with adjoining tables scattered about the room as well. Every shelf was full of books, so far as April could tell.
