That is a public table. Anyone is permitted to sit there.Right, right. Still, she kept glancing over at me. Almost like she was waiting for me to leave.

Perhaps she was merely reading. Some of us observe people without any particular agenda.Interesting. You noticed her noticing me. That's a lot of observing for someone with no agenda. ๐

I notice everything in this library. It is my job. Do not flatter yourself, sir.
