    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi listens to the silence, watches as dust mites float across an apartment devoid of colour, impersonal and cold.

    There are worse fates in the world for those who live. But this on its own, for people like Cheng Jiawei, for people like Cheng Xiaoshi—this sort of loneliness is enough to be excruciating.

    "Lu Guang," Cheng Xiaoshi asks. "What does home mean to you?"

    He thinks of sandalled feet, the warm hands that had held him that quiet September night, and wishes he'd been brave enough to ask what exactly Lu Guang had meant by his words that day.

    If I left and the world went on, would anyone even notice me gone?

    In which a client's request forces Cheng Xiaoshi to confront the terrifying ordeal of what it means to love, grieve, and find your way home.
