"New Faces and Places"
Trevor walks down the staircase. He puts on his jacket and opens the door...
He is startled when he sees a young man with his arm extended about to knock. He almost knocks Trevor on the arm. Trevor afraid of having his rash touched, pulls back.
"Hello? Can I help you?" Trevor asks.
"Yes. I was wondering if Professor Williams is home. I was told I could easily go around to the back, but I found a hard time finding the door... Is he here?"
Trevor nods yes. "Dad! There's someone here at the door who wants to see you!"
Far off in the distance, downstairs, Professor Williams yells out. "Oh yes. Show him in please."
Trevor turns around and says to the young man: "OK, please come in. Looks like my father is busy. He'll up in a second."
Trevor waits impatiently for a few moments at the door as the young man walks into the foyer and turns around noticing that Trevor isn't behind him. Trevor takes a look at the young man and suddenly excuses himself when he looks around:
"I was just on my way out. Make yourself at home." Trevor says before he exits.
Alone, the young man looks around confidently at the grandeur of the house. He takes a small piece of paper out of his pocket. He looks at it. (This is the same young man who has written the poem.) He recites it under his breath.
Behind him, Professor Williams appears in the back and listens carefully as the poet reads aloud to himself.
Professor Williams takes a step forward and says:
"Byron."
Bryon turns around and smiles gently. He tucks the poem back into his pocket. Professor Williams can tell he has something important to tell him.
