Chapter 2: The First Crow

(TW: Mentions of implied pedophilia and abuse/torture, as well as shock therapy)

ARRIVING IN NARITA AIRPORT WAS A DREAM COME TRUE- especially with how anxious Li Wei had been. When he found his luggage within the luggage retrieval area, all 4 plain suitcases, he sauntered towards the exit. One of the things Li Wei had done for his plan was to have transportation ready to arrive at his new home and god, that word home hit Li Wei in a way he'd never known before.

Suddenly overcome with emotion, a few tears escaped his jewel-like eyes, leaving him to take off his glasses to wipe the tears away. His eyes alone demanded attention be brought to it and before he knew it, people were staring at him. Uncomfortable, Li Wei swiftly left the area and stalked towards the cab that was waiting for him as he waved towards the driver. It didn't take long after that for him to find himself within the car and on his way towards the Miyagi prefecture, a thought that brought glee to his eyes.

Li Wei was far more relaxed than he'd been in a while, but the creeping of a breakdown was on the horizon. It was truly unavoidable. Taking off his 'disguise' was nice as he felt more free. There was no real worry about someone recognizing him as despite figure skating being a fairly popular sport, he was going to find himself in a volleyball domain. If someone were to truly recognize him, he'd...probably have no choice but to go further with disguises by changing his hair color, eye color, and using makeup in a way that would mask who he is.

Only an hour had passed before the car drove up onto the driver of his new beautiful home. It was an ordinary two story home with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a large enough backyard for him to maybe build a wall to bounce a volleyball off of. Stepping out the car, Li Wei attempted to tip the driver who helped him bring his bags inside, but suddenly remembered that it could actually be seen as rude.

A bit flustered, Li Wei bowed and said thank you, before quickly entering his home and sliding down the door. He was embarrassed and found himself unable to put on a facade any longer. When he was surrounded by his 'friends', Li Wei acted fairly cold and untouchable because it was necessary to present himself in a way that showed no weakness, but his actual personality was more on the shy side. He could easily be intimidating and did have quite the temper when angry, but his lack of having real friends and parents who gave him more than just a beating left him shy and touch starved. Those were traits that had needed to be buried beforehand, but now that he was free, he could truly be himself.

Li Wei finally felt himself crack after years of living in a cold stone cage, though he still had chains wrapped around him. Sobbing, he cried for the life he never had, the love his parents never showed him, and the need to constantly hide who he was. Crying had been such a sign of weakness that Li Wei learned how to do it perfectly silently as being caught would end in a whipping. Sadly, it took years to master and the scars littering his back told that fairly well.

It took nearly an hour for Li Wei to come back to his senses as he wiped away the tears and snot that covered his face. He truly just wanted to sleep the rest of the day away, feeling exhaustion hook onto him, but found himself in a dilemma.

The movers would not arrive until tomorrow, leaving Li Wei in a furniture-less house...which meant no bed nor no pillows or blanket. There was nothing he could truly do about it, unless he left his home and bought a few things, such as a futon. When Li Wei created his plan, he transferred whatever money he made into a private bank account so that neither of his parents could track his transactions. He knew they often monitored what he bought as Li Wei was not allowed to indulge himself in certain luxuries, such as eating the food he liked. Being a world-class figure skater meant he often had to stick to a specific diet and his parents took that to the extreme. He couldn't remember the last time he ate something that was classified as 'junk food'.
