Bab 197: It could have been...perfect world? -Part 4

After hiding away from Leonard, Vivian suddenly asked herself why she was hiding from him? She had done nothing wrong and therefore she turned back again to look at the space which the empty book had created to find him not standing there anymore. Did he leave? she wondered, standing on her tiptoes to compensate with her height as she looked through space. For some odd reason, her heart sank down to see him gone. 

"Whom are you looking for?"

The sudden voice startled her to no end and her feet where she had been standing on her tiptoes missed the balance and she placed her hand on the rack for it to sway back. Her eyes went as wide as one could to see it move, her heart slipping out if her ribcage for what was to come which was for the rack to knock the other two shelves behind it.
