Nephenee had been learning to read since she moved here, but so far she was only at maybe on a third grader's level, or so Goose said. This was unacceptable, she had decided (after she had found out what a third grader was), so she marched down to the library one day after class, grabbed a few books from each section, and sat herself down at a table, settling down for a few hours of reading... ... ... Oh crap, she got lost already. What in Yune's name was a...H-O-B-B-I-T? And why was she...con...cerning herself with them? After a few words, he looked up, frantically searching for someone to help.
EVA just so happened to be in the area- reshelving a small stack of classic fiction novels- when Nephenee had settled down with her books. The librarian couldn't help but glance over at her as she opened the first page of her book.
Nephenee looked over to her, and nodded frantically, eye wide with confusion. "Y-yeah. I...I can't read that well, and I don't understand this here book." She held up the book for EVA to see.
For a beginner, Nephenee had picked quite the book. EVA walked over, making herself comfortable on the arm of the chair Neph was settled into. She looked over the cover of the book and wondered what would be the best way to phrase what she wanted to say...
"If you're new to reading, maybe you should start with something a little easier than The Lord of the Rings," she replied, maintaining her helpful smile.
