My phone beeped and I picked it up.
It was a text from Ashley.
“Get me a cheeseburger with some fries on your way home please.” The message read.
My eyes caught sight of the time at the top of the screen.
It was almost seven pm.
“What the-,” I exclaimed so loudly that I got a few glares from the people around. I had forgotten I was at the library. “Sorry,” I whispered to those close enough to hear me.
I carried the books on my desk and took them to the shelf where I had picked them from.
I packed my bag and headed out of the library. The hallway was empty, everyone had left. I had been so into the book I was reading that I lost track of time. If Ashley hadn’t texted me when she did, I probably wouldn’t have noticed it was late already. I would have even stayed at the library long
