Once upon a time...

A boy found himself at a public book box where people would leave their old books.

A girl who would leave old books at the book box saw the boy and wondered why he was holding the door down.

A boy stood enjoying the book he found so much that he did not notice the door he was holding, or the girl.

A girl surprised a boy so much that the door slammed on his hand and he dropped his book.

And then they laughed about how books bring people together.

The end.
