"It's bound to be amazing, your cooking always is." Itzal smiled at her as she brought over the bowl, carefully unwrapping his silverware and lightly stirring the ingredients in the bowl. Merely to cool them down a little, though he took a few bites as it was still hot. It was good, and lived up to every expectation he could imagine.

"Did you not think I was coming back?" He seemed a little hurt by even the thought. He'd made a promise, to her and the kids, that once his pseudo-tour was over he'd be back. He owned a home here, and deep down? He'd never leave. Not knowing Kasari was alone.
