Chapter 204: Something Familiar

A moment or two later, I'm stood at the very same door, waiting for him to answer. I've knocked once, but I knock again. I wait and then just as I'm about to turn around and leave, he opens the door, stood in just a pair of boxer shorts.

"Andrew, what are you doing here?"

He looks me over and he looks slightly uneasy as he lets me in.

"Do you want a drink?" he asks as he leads me into the living room. It feels strange being in Clara's apartment without her, especially when I feel this cross with her.

"Did I disturb you?" There's a woman's handbag on the floor.

James just shrugs as if it doesn't matter.

"What's wrong, Contius?"

"Clara and I had an argument," I tell him, frowning at the handbag on the floor. There's something familiar about it.

"Well that's to be expected, right?" he asks. "That's what happens in relationships..." His eyes are darting around the room.

"What's going on James," I ask. "You look really uneasy."
