He Is Back!

Ivan starts feeling restless. The sun has gone past the hills and dusk settled over the top of it. Birds returned to their homes.

Everything appeared normal in front of him but the feeling was still there. It crawled over his chest, making him feel the burden of it. 'Perhaps I am overthinking' Ivan shook his head but the feeling can't be shaken off. It felt so familiar that Ivan almost felt a tremendous yearning for something that he was used to being. He walked out of his room looking for Augustus but he was found nowhere. He went straight to the kitchen and opened the fridge to get some water when his eyes fell on his favorite chocolate cake kept half-eaten in a tray. 

"Aaish, my cake!" He really wanted to eat it. 

He mourned over the gone piece of cake and glanced back, zeroing his eyes over the little one.

"Ryan! Come here"

The kid immediately ran to him. Ivan bends down to his level.
