Exes' Baggage And More

Chapter Thirty

Andrew was a little surprised when he saw Macy carrying Marcus in front of the elevator. Oh, and the other hand of the woman carries two bags. One was hers and the other was her son's backpack. He approached the Editor.

"Marcus will stay?" he asked.

Macy just mumbled softly. "This afternoon, I picked him up at school."

"Oh. He looks like he's exhausted," he said with a faint smile. The boy was sleeping on Macy's shoulder. And the child looks so comfortable in his mother's arms. However, it's a little different with the woman's condition. She seemed to have difficulty carrying Marcus at the same time carrying two bags.

Andrew took a deep breath. "Let me bring your bag," he offered as he took the two bags from her hand.

The elevator door opened when Macy was about to protest. Andrew walked in, followed by Macy. The Writer then pressed the fifteenth button and then glanced at Macy who was standing by his side. Every now and then the woman rubbed her son's back gently.

Andrew smiled slightly.

The few-second ride ended when the elevator stopped and the door opened. This time, it was Macy who walked out first. But the man stepped ahead of Macy to the Editor's apartment unit.

However, his steps stopped when he saw the figure of Ken who was standing in front of the door. Andrew turned and found Macy staring at his ex-husband closely. Oh, he felt there was such a great tension between them.

Macy walked first. She stopped right in front of Ken. She doesn't know how long the man had been waiting there and she doesn't care. And even though Macy hasn't changed the door code, she's grateful that Ken didn't go into her house without permission.

"Andrew, can you open the door?" Macy said slowly.

Andrew immediately looked at the woman. It felt so strange when Macy asked him to open the door. But he didn't say anything. He just walked towards the woman's apartment unit. He noticed Ken who had not moved from the front door.

"Sorry, could you..."

Ken took a deep breath and then shifted so that Andrew could enter the door code and open it wide. Macy mumbled her thanks and was about to step inside, before Ken finally said her name.

Macy took a deep breath. Andrew, who was standing quite close to the woman, could see that the Editor was trying to control her emotions. Maybe something happened and it involved Ken and Marcus. In addition, the woman looks unhappy to see Ken waiting for her outside the apartment unit.

"Go home, Ken. I'll tell you when we can talk," Macy said shortly before she walked in leaving Andrew who was in the doorway and Ken who was outside.

Andrew looked at Ken for a moment. Then Ken walked away without saying anything. Andrew, on the other hand, closed the door and walked towards the living room. He put Macy's bag and Marcus' backpack on the sofa.

He then turned around and saw Macy had just come out of her son's room. The woman grabbed her bag and took out a draft of the script and carried it over to the kitchen counter. He followed her with a frown.

Will Macy continue her work?

Andrew saw Macy take out two beer cans and one of them was given to him. He accepted it, but he is still confused. The woman sat on the counter chair and opened the draft of the script she had brought.

Andrew didn't know what to do. Should he just go home or accompany the woman? Honestly, the Editor's mood looks so bad. He is in such a big dilemma. He wanted to ask, but he couldn't interfere with Macy's problem.
