Part 12
The next morning Ravi woke up very early and went to the "Library" He went to the library early but it was already open and soon he was sitting on his table again and the next book was "Everything You Need to Know-Teen Edition."
He started reading the book he found the book interesting because in the book he found information about many things he never heard about, the book had information about everything from Pythagoras' Theorem to the scientific name of Blue Whale.
Ravi spent hours reading and trying to remember anything and everything he could. Then after reading the book almost till the end he reached a chapter in the book which was called-"Love" and as any other chapter he continued reading the book but this was not a normal chapter, it was very different from the other chapters because it had no formulas, no scientific terms, no nothing but just assumptions and guesses. Ravi did not understand half of what he was reading and he wondered how someone could go to great extents without expecting anything in return. He had never experienced "Love" from anyone and he did not know that it was a emotion which was the greatest strength and weakness of humans.
As he was pondering on all these thoughts the funky teen librarian came to him and saw what he was reading, he just said,"Hey Dude, love is not something you can learn from reading books,you need to feel it to find out what it is."
Ravi said,"But from whom can you expect love?".
The librarian was surprised for a moment on what he had heard and thought for a second and then asked,"Hey man, tell me something - who was the closest person to you since childhood."
Ravi thought for a while and in his mind came the face of only person- His Master at A.A.A(Aristocratic Assassin's Academy) but his master never behaved anything that could be termed as loving and caring or anything that he read in the book, so he just said,"I don't know Mister."
The teen librarian was getting late and as he could not think of what to say, he just said,"OK man, I hope you find your love soon, gotta go."
So Ravi gave the book and went back to his residence.
