When I reach the lobby in my building, my steps die. At first I don’t recognize him. He’s not as put together as the last time I saw him. What is it about men refusing to shave when their hearts are breaking? Fuck. How is this happening? I run a hand along the back of my neck before taking the necessary steps toward him. “Noah.” When he turns, he looks surprised. He glances at the elevator, then back at me. Man, the guy looks ragged. I’ve looked like that a couple times in my life. I almost feel bad for him. “Can we talk?” he asks. I look around the lobby and nod. “There’s a bar on the corner. Unless you want to come up to my place.” He shakes his head. “Bar’s fine.” “Give me ten. I’ll meet you there.” He nods and walks out without saying another word. I go back up to my place and call Olivia. “Noah’s in town,” I say as soon as she picks up. “Did you know?” There is a long pause before she says, “Yeah.” “Has he been to see you?” I feel the tension creep into my shoulders and spread to my hands.
