Resuming this week... Do As You're Told Chapter 17: Starting with the Man in the Mirror Excerpt Two: "Hey, you're the hot-ass who works here, right?" he asked. The boy looked around Adam's age but he certainly didn't recognise him from school - thank god. It was hard to tell exactly how old he was because the boy was Japanese. He had smooth pale brown skin, dark hair, dark eyebrows and brown eyes meant he looked anywhere from sixteen to twenty-one. Also, did he just say "hot-ass"? "I just go by Adam," he replied dryly. The kid laughed, "Right, yea. Sorry about that. That was kinda rude, wasn't it? Are you wearing pants or a jock?" "A jockstrap," Adam replied. "Can you give me a twirl?" the boy asked.
