He took off his jacket and hung his hat, eager to see his family, so when nobody replied, worry suddenly bubbled inside his stomach.

'Yor? Anya? ' he called.

TV was off, the living room was dark, so was the kitchen.

He left the small paper bag with slices of cake on the kitchen counter and quickly walked towards the rooms 'his heart beating fast 'until he saw a light in the bedroom he shared with Yor.

He found them there. Napping, safe and sound. Yor was sleeping on her side, cuddling Anya. He relaxed immediately.
