Yitian was glad that he was thoughtful enough to grab the keys before he stormed out of Chao's apartment. And that he had all the keys in one bundle. Because he forgot that his mother was on a long work trip, where Chao's family sent her after her last attack on Yitian. So, the house he came in was as dark, cold as his life now.
Yitian went into his room and felt no warmth at all. Some of his things were like from a stranger. He didn't see himself in them at all. Strange. As if he abandoned who he was before, for Chao. How could that happen? He sat on his bed and curled into a ball. Yitian closed his eyes, trying to find himself.
