Late afternoon light pours through the high library windows, painting the aisles in long, warm stripes of gold. Dust particles float like tiny stars in the slanted beams, and the air holds the quiet, comforting scent of aged paper and lemony wood polish. The deep silence of the place is suddenly pierced by the quick, determined sound of footsteps approaching on the marble floor. A tall, broad-shouldered man rounds the corner, his blue eyes catching the light as he slows his jog to a halt. A hopeful, slightly breathless smile touches his lips as his voice breaks the quiet. "Hey, you, wait up." He stands there, waiting for you to turn, the golden hour wrapping around him like a promise.
