Chapter 80 - Trouble Within The Archive
Although, his tap was soft and gentle, the Archive was a very silent place to begin with. Such that even the sound of a pin dropping would be loud, so David's tap was specifically a little more louder.
Although the Archives had been altered to block sound, the librarian's seat was exempted from such altercations.
Obviously startled the young lady quickly did away with the books she was holding. Still with her heads down, she quickly adjusted her self and with the brightest smile she could possibly muster, she raised up and greeted David.
"Good morning sir, how can i help-" her voice was suddenly cut off and suddenly her smile dropped as she notice the person standing in front of her desk.
With a frown and an in an indifferent tone, she spoke up "And what is it that you want?"
Opening up the Holographic image, she went back to what she was previously doing, ignoring David once more.
She honestly thought it was another inspection that was made by the supervising depart. It had been a month since she had seen them, so she was a bit jumpy at this crucial moment.
If they saw that she was reading the book that the students was supposed to pay to read. It might not cause any problems because the benefits of working as a receptionist includes reading books for free but, she tends to ignore her surroundings when she reads, she usually becomes immersed in her readings and when disturbed, she tends to have a violent temper, as her mouth would do the talking before her brain responds.
This had happened to him the previous time he had come here so David wasn't the slightest bit surprised by this development.
With a smirk on his lips as he replied in a deep voice "Are you sure you want to ignore me this time?" it was as though he was threatening her.
She suddenly stood up and eyes suddenly lit up in flames of anger "Sure! Sure! Yes i am sure i want to ignore you!" she babbled her response. And when she noticed David we as keeping silent, she smiled satisfactorily and went back to her books. She didn't have time for his nonsense.
But then, she suddenly heard David say "Alright, but who are those guys watching us at my 7'o clock?"
She subconsciously raised her head to check while simultaneously responding. "Why would i care who they ar-" her words were then stuck in her throat as her eyes widened and the as if she hadn't looked towards there the first instance.
She acted quite casual, flipping down her imprint as she stood up with her back straight. She then smiled with her lips curled up. She was very beautiful as she smiled with her curves quite visible through the robes she was wearing.
It appears that the glasses she was wearing and the big brown robes she always downed on obscured her beauty and her curves.
She smiled as she spoke sweetly "How long were they there for?"
David took his time as he folded his arms, with a sinister smile in his face.
Freta squinted her eyes and she gritted her teeth about to let out another stream of words, the corner of her eye caught into the people behind them, obviously spying at them.
Her attitude changed but through gritted teeth, she spoke up. "Alright, what do you want?" she stated.
"Now that's more like it." David smiled widely. It was an obvious blackmail.
It would take quite a lot of time if he decides to start searching through all the books in the Archives for the problems he was currently facing but if he has someone who could help him through it, why not.
His demeanor then turned serious as he asked "The topic's concerning problems a Spryher faces and the solution on how to overcome them. I need those books for a good buddy of mine. He didn't have time to come here, so I thought I should help out."
The young lady stood still, as though she was frozen and then without warning, she burst out with laughter while holding her stomach and the desk.
Davud stood there blankly. He didn't know what to do. How did this situation turn out this way? Why was she even laughing. She is obviously not faking it this time.
He was dumbfounded for a while and her laughter didn't seem to fade for a while.
Wiping up her tears, she giggled softly as she said "Sorry about that. So what particular problem is this 'Friend' of yours facing?" placing emphasis on the word friend she then held her mouth as if to stifle her laughter.
If David didn't know the reason for her laughter by now, he should just go hit his head on a rock.
With an expressionless face "You saw through the lie didnt uou?" he confirmed.
But this made her burst out into laughter once again.
When she calmed down "It was very obvious. Couldn't you come up with something better than that? That was a very stupid idea." she giggled cutely and her deep dimples made its appearances once again. She was a very beautiful young lady with a very long black hair, deep black eyes that shone like the very crystals they are. Long black eyebrows that almost looked fake. Her perfectly symmetric lips and nose that seemed to be an faultless work of art. Made David a bit stunned.
Clearing his throat, he sighed. "That was what i could come up with okay? Alright you've had your fun, now can you point me to the right direction, I'm in a bit of a hurry right now." he stated plainly. Being made fun of by a pretty girl would obviously spoil any guys mood and make them embarrassed.
Chuckling softly. "It beem quite a while inhad such a good laugh so i might as well just reward you, tell me what your problem is, I might be of help to you." Freta said.
David hesitated it wasn't quite sure if I should tell her the problem is is currently facing with his practice. "I'm not really sure if I should tell you and also, how do I know you can't help me?"
Freta rolled her eyes as she said "I've been in the Institute for about three years now, so I'm pretty sure I have experienced more problems than you're currently facing and if I guess correctly, you are a new student at the Institute so I'm quite confident in answering your questions correctly."
Puffing up her bountiful chest. "Also I have a licence as a consultant and you should know, new students pay me quite a good amount of Gyno point just for a little piece of advice from me." she stated Bradley proudly.
David stared at her intensely he wasn't sure if could trust her as she doesn't seem to be responsible, but he decided to give it a try.
* * *
A few metres away from where David and Freta were speaking 5people could be seen seated in a corner, talking with each other while at the same time , glancing towards a certain direction. Three young men, a middle aged man that seem to be a professor and a pretty lady.
The middle aged man called Greenstone suddenly spoke up "Previously, you confidently stated that Freta doesn't deserve to be a receptionist as she frequently ignored those who came to her for help and you would show me evidence regarding that. But" Greenstone said with a furrowed brows as he glanced at the still smiling Freta.
After a while, he continued "But from what I see and from the way she's interacting with the young man over there, she seems to be pretty good receptionist. I don't see any problem with that."
He then stared menacingly the young lady and her group "Did you come here just to waste my time? I don't have enough time for myself but you came here to waste my time for this nonsense do you know your crime or did you think I came here because if that meager little amount of Gyno points you sent me?"
'This basterd, how is 50,000 gyno points a meager sum of money.' The young lady cursed in her mind but she hurriedly stood up as she respectfully said "Proffessor Greenstone, i promise that is not it! It wasn't my intention to bring you here for nothing."
"I don't understand what was happening either but from what I can come up with, I think she spotted us already and is faking that smile." she stared hatefully at Freta.
She had also applied for the position as a receptionist at the Archives along with Freta and all beautiful female students but Freta had been chosen because she was the most beautiful and respectful and also with humble background the group of girls who had applied as a receptionist that wasn't all, because of her deep beautiful dimples that seem to make an impression on anyone, she had been chosen.. At least, that was what Brenda thought.
