A wave of warmth spread through Emily’s chest as she walked into the library and noticed the space at the librarian’s desk, her mentor, was vacant. It was a space she'd longed to take up. She had never been more eager to begin.

She surveyed the space, making a mental note of all the ways she could improve it. She had a list of books she wanted to order. She could start putting her plans into motion.

She smiled as she went to her desk, the possibilities bubbling in her. The library, once a place of stifled ambitions, now felt charged with a vibrant energy.
