Childe didn't know the horrors he'd see that day, the day everything would change for better or for worse.
Tartaglia was wondering through the halls of his house, he had come home early to surprise his boyfriend Zhongli. Although something seemed off. He knew that Zhongli was a busy man but it was unusual for him to be out of site, locked in his room as Chidle thought he was..
As Childe got closer to the door, he could hear strange noises. Which was odd because Zhongli normally worked in silence. , Maybe he was sick?' Childe thought to himself yet the noises suggested differently. They didn't sound like Zhongli and what's more, there were multiple of them.' just sick' he reassured himself as he turned the door handle. His worst nightmare waiting on other other side.
There he saw it. There were indeed other people in the room with Zhongli, and they weren't all that familiar with Childe which somehow made it all worse. Childe's vision started to blur and he felt himself loose any rational thought, smashing a nearby vase in anger before slamming the door again, running away before Zhongli got the time to explain. Childe ran and ran, he hoped Zhongli had been forced into it but he couldn't let himself have that hope. He ran far far away all the way into Mondstat.
