'Physical explanation'

“What are you doing here, Matt?” Jo articulated slowly, letting him step inside.

“This is how you greet your friend?” He looked at her with a sly expression on his face. “I decided that I should visit you. You may urgently need support.” He added after a moment of hesitation and his lips stretched into a subtle smile.

He was still dressed in a very elegant grey suit; he even had a tie on, but there were trademark signs of tiredness etched on his face. She had no doubt that he had flown straight from the courtroom.

“I don't need support in my war with Julian, but will be happy to have company.” Jo said honestly and an inexplicable gleam flickered across her eyes. “Did you come, literally, straight from work?”

“Is it so obvious?” Matthew asked as he undid his tie ostentatiously. He was so tired that he was not sure if it was a good idea to give her a little show.
