My ex texted me after 5 months of no contact. What does he want?

I was dating this guy on and off for 1,5 year. The last time we met was when he told me that it's not working out and other bullshit. That was 1mnt before he went travelling for 5 months. I was really heartbroken because I know that he ended it just to be free for the last time while doing something extraordinary. While he was traveling ( after 4mnt travelling and 5mnt of no contact) he randomly texted me but just an emoji. It's been 3months since then but its kinda still bothering me. Why did he do that? When he ended it he told me that our paths may cross again when we are older and more mature. He is studying and very busy so I think his first priority was his career. Do you think know he kinda regrets his decision. Because my intuition says that he would love to come back but pride is taking over.
