Lost Me Gained Regret

Ike jumped up excitedly and planted a swift kiss on my cheek, "Auntie, you're the best!"

Then he dashed off towards the elevator, leaping into his dad's arms.

Herbert, holding his little guy, came over, handed back my phone, and nodded politely, "I've explained everything to Ike, so I'll be taking him now." "Auntie! Ike's leaving now!"

Ike blew me a kiss, his voice sweet and soft, "But don't worry, I'll be back before it gets dark."

I looked at him in surprise, and Herbert's brow furrowed subtly, but he didn't comment.

I ruffled Ike's hair, "Listen to your mom and dad."

"Okay!" The little munchkin nodded vigorously.

Herbert said, "Ms. Webster, we'll be off. Sorry for the intrusion."

"It's... it's fine!"

For some reason, Herbert gave me a strong impression of an elder.

It wasn't just his personality, but also something indescribable.

Herbert, carrying the little munchkin, entered the elevator, his tone steady, "You're not staying at home tonight, but you still want to come back?" "Yeah!" Ike, hanging from his dad's neck, blinked his big eyes, "Dad, you'll bring me back, right?"

Herbert looked at him, "Your grandparents miss you."

"Um...I miss grandma and grandpa too..."

Ike seemed torn, pondering for a moment before deciding, "But, Ike has important things to do!"

Herbert chuckled at the little guy, "Important things?"

He's just a little kid. His whole day is filled with eating, playing and sleeping. What important things could he possibly have?
