Mitch nods hesitantly and Esther smiles, gently rubbing Mitch's cheek before moving over to her desk and penciling in an appointment.

"Avi should only be fifteen minutes or so, hun." Esther's smile never drops and Mitch nods again but as he goes to sit down, the door down the hall opens and Avi walks out, a booming laugh escaping his lips. Scott quickly follows him and they walk down the hall together. 

Mitch's stomach drops to the ground the moment his eyes set on Scott. Scott continues laughing at something Avi said until they reach the front desk. Avi leans against the counter and talks to Esther, waving his hands around. Scott, on the other hand, stands with his back to Mitch.

Mitch hopes it's because he didn't realise he was there and not because he doesn't want to see the boy.

Avi suddenly freezes as his gaze rests on Mitch. The boy lowers his hands and Mitch awkwardly waves.

Scott's head flicks around and as soon as he notices the brunette, his gaze lowers to the floor.

"Shall we continue this in my office, Mr Grassi?" Scott asks.
