I have cycled to Stoa for a meeting with Kipa. The temperature has reached 27 degrees. The sun beams down from a cloudless sky. I arrive feeling warm.

As I park my bike in a rack outside the library I look around. A small girl runs through the sculpture while, to my right, couples sit on chairs under the umbrellas.

The library remains very quiet but outside things have begun to return to a more relaxed sociability.
