Explanation:

- The passage describes someone observing a magic shop from a distance and not having considered entering it before a specific incident.

- Option 1: "while" - Implies simultaneous actions, which doesn't fit here as it suggests the person had entered the shop before.

- Option 2: "until" - ?? Correct Answer. Suggests a change or turning point, used here to indicate that nothing happened before the incident when Gip took action.

- Option 3: "after" - Indicates something that happens following another event, which doesn't suit the context as it implies the visit had already occurred.

- Option 4: "since" - Often indicates a span of time from a past event, which doesn't align with the narrative's context of change from past inaction to action.
