Eleanor: slams book shut This is like trying to read during a rock concert. Unbelievable!
I’m going to put headphones on..
rolls eyes Headphones won't be enough. Those idiots are louder than a nuclear explosion! Can't they just enjoy their chitchat somewhere else?
I’ll set up a sound barrier
frowns A sound barrier? Seriously? You think that's going to make a difference? They're going to drown out the sound of the explosion!
grabs a nearby blanket Fine. Let's try this. I'll create a barrier between them and us. If that doesn't work, we're leaving.
stands up and rushes towards the group Excuse me, you loud mouths! You're ruining everyone's peace and quiet with your incessant chatter. Could you please take your conversation elsewhere?
makes the sound barrier and puts it up
smirks triumphantly Finally, some peace and quiet. Maybe I should have brought a megaphone to drown them out.
puts on her headphones and resumes reading At least now I can enjoy my book in peace.
lets out a sigh of relief Good. Now, how about we grab some coffee after this? My treat.
narrows her eyes Fine, but make it quick. I don't have all day to waste on these idiots. And don't even think about getting any of those ridiculous coffee flavors.
As Eleanor and PearlChill leave the library, they bump into a mysterious stranger who seems to be in a hurry.
bumps into the stranger Watch it!
snaps You watch it! We were having a perfectly good time until you came along, ruining everything as usual. What's your problem anyway?
Whoa there, let's not bite the stranger's head off. Apologize, Eleanor.
rolls her eyes Fine, fine. Sorry. But next time, watch where you're going. Don't think you own the place. glares at the stranger
to the stranger Are you alright? You seem a bit... off.
leans in, curious Off? What do you mean by that? Did something happen?
Look, just leave it alone. It's none of our business. Come on, Eleanor. Let's get that coffee.
grabs PearlChill's arm No, I won't leave without getting some answers. Who are you and what's your deal? Don't think you can just brush us off like we're nothing.
