บท 63: A pair of shoes

Arriving back at the house, Andrew pulled off the tie first. Undoing the first button on his dress shirt, he finally felt he could breathe. Exhaling slowly, he took a second after the door was closed and locked behind them to center himself. 

"Were you that worried?" Maxwell teased, taking off his own shoes. Andrew nodded. 

"If I'm honest? I was terrified. I really didn't want them to hate me." Andrew told him, and Maxwell smiled to himself as he placed his shoes neatly to the side. Turning, he lowered himself much to Andrew's shock and began helping Andrew take off his shoes.
