the library next to the girl in black hoodie and started a conversation.
“Hey you seem to be a book lover I always see you here?” Samaya queried in enthusiastic tone.
To which she replied, “I want to read all of them; my passion for books is very old and not going to dither anytime soon”, and she chuckled with a smile.

"What is the hurry, enjoy each read

Samaya whispered to herself “she seems to be
quite serious in reading” and started flipping the pages of her new book.
The next day Samaya was shocked to see the portrait
of ‘girl in black hoodie’ on Remembrance Day.
"Her passion is still alive", Samaya said while she lit the candle, "you truly left a heartprint".

DeleteI was a bit lost at the end, till I found the last two lines in fine print. I suggest you increase the font size a bit.
