Chapter Twenty Three

Andrew entered the lobby of St. Haven alone, because David had to go and park the car first. With occasional focus on his cellphone to reply to incoming messages, he walked towards the nearest elevator. He pressed the elevator button when someone stood beside him. Andrew glanced at the person who turned out to be Ken Reyes.

Andrew put his phone in his jacket pocket and exhaled slowly. He wished he didn't have to go down first. The situation was so quiet and awkward. Even though he recognizes the man, it seems that Ken doesn't recognize him yet. They had only met once at Macy's apartment. But even at the apartment, Ken also didn't recognize him as a writer.

When the elevator door opened, Andrew rushed in followed by Ken. Quickly, he pressed the 5th floor button. At the same time, Ken, who was about to press the fifth button, was silent when Andrew did it first.

The door then closed.

"Hah..." Andrew sighed softly.
