Oliver nodded his head while uttering, "Hmmm".
Then Aiden dropped the book on the table, and Oliver's voice resounded again,
"You chose a history book, so of the kings that have ruled over the Tuvalon Kingdom and their histories, that's a nice topic. I've read part of this book in the past".
"Was it interesting?". Aiden inquired of Oliver.
"Yes, it was". Oliver responded.
And after making that response, Oliver focused his gaze on what he was reading once again. Ava didn't even bother to glance at the both of them while they were discussing, she just focused on what she was reading...she didn't take her gaze off it.
Aiden opened the first page of the book and began reading...and it wasn't bad at all. He finished reading the first page, diverted his gaze to the next page, and continued reading. It was still going well, it was interesting.
Within so minutes, Aiden had read so pages, and he was learning a lot while reading. He's gotten to see the full history of a certain king that has ruled over the Tuvalon Kingdom in the past.
According to what he read, the man ruled over the Tuvalon Kingdom properly, he took care of the natives, he did marvelous things...he wasn't a wicked king. But he was already dead, died so years ago. He loved what he read about the man...a smile was on his face while he was reading that part.
And currently, he had started reading about another king that has ruled over the Tuvalon Kingdom in the past...he was still in the early pages, the early phase. He loved what he was reading about the man as well, his reign as king wasn't a terrible one according to what he's read up to.
And when he read further, it was still the sa case, his reign as king for the past years was what the natives of the Tuvalon Kingdom enjoyed. And so it kept going until he was dethroned.
By now, the library was already filled up, so people had to co and go due to that. But it would get to a ti when everyone would have to leave the library and go back to their classrooms. Aiden was still reading the history book when Ava suddenly stood up from the chair she was sitting on.
And Aiden and Oliver glanced at her at that mont, seems like she was about to leave. She strolled over to Aiden and Oliver and told them the sa thing,
"I'll be leaving now, we'll et in class".
And with that, she walked to the shelf she took the book from, dropped it where she saw it, and sauntered out of the library. Aiden focused his gaze on the book he was reading once again...he was enjoying what he was reading.
..And at that mont, he rembered sothing, he rembered that he had a question to ask Oliver.
And now would be the right ti to ask him since Ava was gone. He didn't want Ava to be there while he was asking him the question.
So he glanced at Oliver as his gaze was focused on the book he was reading. Then Aiden called out his na in a whisper which was loud enough for him to hear.
"Oliver".
Oliver glanced at him at that mont, then Aiden moved from his chair to his with the book in his hand. Oliver had to create space as Aiden joined him in his seat. Then Oliver's voice resounded,
"What is it?".
"There's a question I've been aning to ask you". Aiden stated.
"What question is that?". Oliver inquired with an inquisitive facial expression.
"According to what I rembered in my first ti in this academy, that's the day before yesterday. You and Ava weren't that close. Yeah, she was trying to beco our friend, but you were giving her the attitude. And what was your reason? That she was trying to beco friends with us 'cause of which was true,
But now, you and Ava seem close, you aren't giving her the attitude anymore. Did what I did that day work out? I rember telling you guys to converse while going ho together".
A smile appeared on Oliver's face at that mont, then he voiced out,
"Yeah, that's part of what caused us to beco close, and the fact that you left the both of us to go ho together, your dad ca to pick you up. If you had gone ho together with us, I'll still be giving her the attitude 'cause you're the only one I'll be talking to,
While we were heading ho, even after what you said, I was still giving her the attitude, I wasn't talking to her. Then she suddenly said sothing like, what are you doing? Don't you rember what Aiden told us? That we should be conversing while heading ho together?
I was still giving her the attitude, I didn't utter a single word. Then she said again, I know why you're acting like this, 'cause you feel I beca friends with you guys 'cause of, Aiden. That is true, but after spending so ti with you guys, I also want to beco your friend,
That ans, I want the both of us to be conversing even if Aiden is present or not, I want us to beco friends. I was surprised that she discerned that, I was really surprised. Then she uttered once again, let's do what Aiden said, let's converse while heading ho together,
And that's the reason why I began conversing with her, and we bonded a lot...and that's how it happened".
Oliver finished explaining with that smile still plastered to his face...it was a nice experience. Then Aiden voiced out,
"Wow! That's nice".
"Yeah". Oliver stated.
"You see, things have finally worked out between the both of you". Aiden uttered once again.
"But no matter how you look at it, we beca friends because of you. She wouldn't have approached if I was alone, she approached the both of us together. But well, things happen for a reason, we are real friends now".
"Yeah, things happen for a reason".
"But why didn't you ask all this while? You could have asked this question since". Oliver said to Aiden.
"I didn't want Ava to be there while asking you the question, so I waited for the ti when the two of us would be alone, when she wouldn't be in our midst". Aiden uttered.
"Ohhh! So, do you have another question to ask? Or is that the only question?".
"That's the only question".
"Then I guess we can go back to reading now".
Aiden moved back to his seat as he focused his gaze on the book again continuing from where he stopped. The book was still going great, and now, it was about ti for everyone to evacuate the library and head over to their classrooms.
Aiden knew he must have to complete this book next ti, he must get to read about the rest of the kings that have ruled over the Tuvalon Kingdom in the past. Everyone had already stood up from the chairs they were sitting on, stroll to the shelves where they took the books from, drop them back, and stroll out of the library.
Aiden and Oliver also did the sa, they stood up from the chairs they were sitting on, walk to the shelf they took the books from, drop them off, and evacuated the library as well. As they were walking along the corridor, Aiden said to Oliver,
"I'm definitely gonna continue reading that book next ti".
"It's interesting, right?". Oliver inquired of Aiden.
"Yeah, really interesting. I've gotten to learn a lot about the kings that ruled over this kingdom in the past though I haven't seen any of them". Aiden retorted.
"I read so pages of the book, then stopped. I might continue reading it later". Oliver stated.
Aiden just nodded his head, then Oliver's voice resounded again,
"You know, not all the kings that have ruled over this kingdom were written in that book, so were excluded, I don't know why. You can tell from the title alone".
"Is it only one copy of the book that is in the library?". Aiden inquired of Oliver.
"No, there is more than one copy. I think, about three copies. Many books in the library are in more than one copy, but there are also many that are in only one copy". Oliver responded.
Aiden nodded his head while uttering, "Hmmm", Then Oliver's voice resounded again,
"I told you you wouldn't regret coming to the library. See, did you regret it?".
Aiden shook his head while retorting, "No".
"Of course, you shouldn't".
But this doesn't an that Aiden's reading spirit had increased that much. He would try to be visiting the library to see if he can be reading interesting books just like the one he read today, but not frequently.
Oliver had sothing else to say to Aiden, so he glanced at him and called out his na,
"Aiden".
