This is the following chapter of 'Defess is Drunk'.
------------------------- The orange orb of glowing light was high up in the soft blue sky. The time was clearly around noon and the sky was a most beautiful shade. A few white cotton ball resembling clouds drifted through the vast sea of blue. But really, no matter how perfect the day, the time and weather wasn't very important. But instead the importance belonged to a large building in the middle of the big city. A building well-known by everyone in the city, especially the young adults. People between 15 and 25, or so. This building served many purposes. It was usually known for its large verity of books, and being one of the best hang-outs in the city. You could buy books, movies, and other such things, or even rent them. Not to mention they served a range of smoothies and such next door, the two buildings connected by a doorway. But one other thing about this place was also valuable to the city. The stored tons of information. Events in history, down to the finer details, and also information on anyone who entered the city, and often many more people then just that. If one was to enter inside you'd find yourself surrounded wall to wall by shelves of books that reached nearly to the ceiling. Also, there were sections with couches and chairs set up, for anyone who just wanted to sit around. In the center of the building was a ring-shaped counter. Four workings stood behind it and rang people's sales and rentals up. |

Defess had taken the bus to the multipurpose library that day- all through out that morning he thought of no one else by Rhosey.. it glided through his mind that there was something unnatural about his obsession- but every time it did the memory of her winking at him- with her devious eyes.. it just blew all thoughts away. He needed information- and the city's library was the place to start. he walked up the concrete steps to the entrance of the building.the doors had glass windows that he could see through- and before he even opened the door he knew that judging by how many people where in line for check out and information- this was going to take a while... he walked in and got in line for the information desk- the line consisted of about 15 people- he didn't think that this was going to take too long.. at least until he realized thirty minutes later when the first person in line was still up that he was clearly wrong. he looked around the area for some one who might be able to help him- then looked eyes with a young- mousy girl. She had two brown pigtails- glasses and a thick stack of books in her hands covering half her face- she definitely looked like some one that came here often and Defess wondered if she might even work there. he gladly gave up his position in line and pursued her for help "um- e-excuse me- miss?" he said trying to get her attention with out scaring her (yes- he was convinced that any loud noises would leave her racing into a mouse hole..) she turned around with her books in hand "yes?" she said.
"I was wondering if you might be able to help me- looking for information on a woman..."
the girl giggled " sorry I'm not authorized to assist people with that sort of stuff- only books" she sighed as she looked at the heavy load she was holding. she looked back to him "but seeing as you'll be here for days before those lines let up- i'll help you out... see that door?" she nudged her head in the direction of a metal door that stood in between to book cases. Defess nodded "go down that hall until you see a black door with green writing..should say 'Manager'.. knock three times- then enter. she should be in there.. tell her that Emee sent you" she smiled.
Defess smiled brightly "thank you" he said as he hurried to the door. and went through.

Inside the room a girl was sitting behind a desk, facing the other way. Apparently, she was typing away on a laptop keyboard. Only the thing Defess didn't know, is that this woman was the very person he was looking for. Today Rhosey was dressed in her daytime work outfit. Black pants, heavy black boots, a green tank top cut to show her stomach that was covered with a black over shirt that was held shut with a single button in the center. Her fairly long black hair wasn't down like the night before, but instead held up in a bun with chopsticks. Not only that but she was also wearing a set of small glasses. They resembled a pair of cute eye glasses, but had dark lenses that distorted her true eye color. Sitting upon the desk facing Defess was a few stacks of papers and a manager name tag labled with the name 'Miss Trinity.' "Hello, how may I help you?" the woman asked lightly, with out turning away from her work.
