The tall, russet haired man paced slowly around his living room, his repeated shuffling across the pale colored carpet wearing a line into the soft material. He was at war with himself, and had been for a good portion of an hour now. A few weeks ago an old friend from school had called him up from out of the blue, and wanted to invite him to a reunion of all their mutual friends. He gave an noncommittal answer at the time, unsure if he wanted to see them again. Most had move on and away from the small town they shared their childhood in, but not him. Novak felt slightly abandoned because of it, foolish as it seems. Today was supposed to be the day they all met up at the cabin, but he still had not decided if he was going yet. Hence, the pacing. Novak sighed softly, pushing the air out of his lungs in a frustrated manner as he stilled his pacing in front of a lightly painted wall. Something hanging on the wall caught his eye. An plain picture frame, crookedly hung, with the bottom right of the glass cracked and spidering across the image inside. "It feels like a century since that was taken..." he spoke quietly, removing the photo from the wall. As Novak stared at the old image of all his friends and him on graduation day, laughing and dressed in the ridiculous caps and gowns, he had his answer. He packed his things quickly, a few sets of clothing, a toothbrush, and a notebook were all thrown into his suitcase before he carefully wrapped the broken picture frame with a shirt, setting it inside the suitcase as well. Walking out to his car, he had a few hours of driving ahead of him.

The drive to the cabin was long but mostly uneventful, he turned off the main road to the smaller side road that lead up to the cabin and could feel his heart hammering against his rib-cage, nerves racking his body. He noticed another car parked outside, a Maserati, and was confused for a moment before he saw the familiar frame of Kalliana nearby. Novak parked his car in an open spot before he got out, taking a slow steadying breath. "...Kalli?" the russet haired man questioned as he began to walk over, a small nervous smile on his face.
