"I'm afraid to go there," Chao was lying in the bed, unable to talk himself into getting up. Today was the Chung Yeung holiday. His nightmare. His father wanted him to visit his mom's grave.
Chao was there once. Soon after she died, but he ended up crying and passing out. Having nightmares for months, so his father had never pushed him into going there again.
"She is not dead because of you. You are not the one to blame." Yitian came up to him and sat on his side of the bed. Chao turned around to face him and nodded.
"I know. I know, but still… I was…" His voice broke down and he laid his face into a pillow. Yitian caressed his hair and smiled slightly.
"Listen to me, okay?" Yitian started and Chao raised his head. He nodded and moved his head into Yitian's lap. Yitian was surprised for a while, calming his fast-beating heart. Looking down at him, he played with Chao's silky black hair.
