Summary
Xia Fei does not sleep.
He dreams: a recurring nightmare that has him in its relentless chokehold, tight and unforgiving. Struggle, struggle, struggle, but all he can feel is the purple of blooming bruises on his neck like the forget-me-nots that grew in summer’s unyielding heat.
Sometimes he can almost pretend the first number saved in his contacts will bring relief the way it always used to, that Vein would appear again as the steady lifeline he was, a raft amongst the tumultuous waters that threatened to drag Xia Fei under.
Or, Xia Fei and the loss of the brightest star in his sky.
