Diaz To the original Charlie and Will and all the people who love them as I do. Will had not meant to linger by the door but at a quarter past twelve when he heard it open he was there to watch as Charlie— his gentleman, Mr. Charles Howard, esq.— pushed open the door to let himself in. For a moment Charlie was a tall, strong figure silhouetted by yellow, flickering street lights and then he removed his hat to lean against the wall and sigh, which told Will all he needed to know about his master’s current state.
