At The Bookshop

Not a moment longer, we finally reached our destination, Nine's bookshop. Erin opened the door for me and I entered. Two pairs of eyes looked at me at the same time, one of them was a set of forest greens.

"Welcome~" Nine sang behind the counter, as always, wearing her usual smile.

She really smiles a lot…

"Hello~"

"Lady Nadia!" exclaimed Estelle.

"Hey," I nodded at her in acknowledgment. 

Estelle seemed to get even more thrilled because of my response that she literally brimmed with it.

"You're back!"

"Yes, I am…" I drawled lazily.

Estelle cleared her throat and reeled her excitement in when she realized how eager she was being.  Kinda cute, not gonna lie. 

I walked right up to them and smiled at the very welcoming Nine who appeared as if she already knew what I'm about to say.

"I finished the book you suggested to me and it was really good," was my opening statement.
