So, I'll leave the truffles where they are and you'll have two surprises for him. And... you doubt that? Seriously?
Is that really all that surprising?
A message from Anonymous
Oh, but two surprises will be better than one. His logic, not mine.
Hah… Yeah, that sounds exactly like him.
You’re sure he’ll be happy to see me?

Of course he won't run out of it. And you give him those truffles yourself when you're back. This way they'll taste better. I'll try to keep him entertained otherwise.
Well, yeah. But just in case. I’ll be bringing him a surprise, anyway.

Oh, he tries to pretend that the worst problem so far is that I'm incapable of making his hot chocolate just the right way (well, your way) and never gets tired of complaining about it. But we know that that's so not the point of why he's complaining.
Probably not. Just make sure he doesn’t run out of it, even if he keeps complaining. There should be plenty, but just in case.
Oh, and check the second cabinet to the left of the stove. There’s a secret compartment with a little stash on the top, under the drawer. Should be truffles, I think. If he gets really miserable, leave one of the packages where he can find it.

Oh, I would. If he'd let me. Stubborn as he can be. But I'm doing my best. Just know that he does miss you every single day and don't be too disappointed that he doesn't express it. He's restless and quiet and sad, although he'd deny it probably. But I can tell. You're needed here. Badly.
I’ll be back soon. As soon as I can.
And… thank you. I know it’s hard as hell to deal with him sometimes, but really. Thanks. It does more good than you know.

Oh, I think I can tell. At least a bit. He doesn't say it, but it happens that he's standing at the window for quite some time, searching for you out there, hoping for you to come back. Of course he pretends it didn't happen when he notices I'm around.
Oh.
I’m… trying to finish my work here quickly. Until then… keep an eye on him for me, will you? Tell me how he’s doing, what he’s up to? What he does?
Just… take care of him. Please.
