remembering this

Neil doesn’t know what to expect when Andrew walks through the door, metal bell clanking and the sound of lilting coffee shop music drowned out by the look Andrew gives him.Andrew pulls out the chair opposite Neil and he clenches his hand more firmly around his mug. Andrew sits down and Neil sips at his too-hot coffee. Nods towards the other mug. “I got you a mocha,” he says. Andrew simply curls his fingers around the warm mug. They sit in silence for a moment. Neil’s forgotten how to do this.
