Maximus drove home after dropping his daughter off. He was exhausted. As soon as he arrived, he parked in the driveway. His father, Magnus, was watching from the living room and immediately noticed that Maximus looked stressed or irritated.

“Maximus…” he called out from the couch.

“Hey, Dad. What’s up?” Maximus asked, carefully controlling his tone.

“That’s what I was going to ask you. You don’t look too great… What’s on your mind?” Magnus asked calmly.

“Oh, this? Just some things I need to drop off for the Palmer and Evans girls,” Maximus said as he approached and greeted his father.

“Come with me to the study. We need to talk,” Magnus said sensing that his son wasn’t telling him everything. Once they were in the study, Magnus poured them both a drink. He handed a glass to Maximus before taking a sip of his own.

“I think you need this,” Magnus said.

“Do I really look that bad?” Maximus asked before downing his drink in one gulp.

“A little. So? What’s going on?” his father asked, intrigued.

“A lot… But one thing in particular.”

“And that is?”

“There’s something I haven’t told you… It’s about one of my sons,” Maximus said, deciding to just lay it all out.
