"Woah, Venti, that was so good!" Hutao praised. "Thanks, ehe." Venti said smiling. "Do you know how to play other instruments?" Hutao asked. Venti nodded as Hutaos eyes sparkled. "Really!? What else can you play???" Hutao asked starry eyed. "Violin and flute." Venti smiled. "That's so cool! You're so talented." Hutao said while clapping her hands.
They talked more a little bit. "Venti!" They heard Childe shout. "Y-yes?" Venti shouted back. "Come here." Childe replied. Venti sighed and proceeded to go downstairs. Childe signaled him to sit beside him and Zhongli. "Venti, I think you should go home." Zhongli said. "H-Huh... Why?" Venti asked. "Your parents are going to be worried." Childe said. "Actually, they'd be happy if they knew I was gone." Venti replied. "No, that's impossible, you're they're child." Zhongli said crossing his arms. "You wouldn't understand..." Venti said trying to hold his tears. Childe and Zhongli both sighed. "You're they're child okay. No parent will be happy if they know their child went missing." Childe said frowning. "But my parents hate me.." Venti said looking down. "Impossible." Zhongli said. Venti just stayed silent. "Hey, what really is happening in your house? Why is that you don't want to go home?" Childe asked. Venti is hesitating to say cause he doesn't know if he can trust these people yet. "Ya know what, I'm not going to force you, I'll just bring you home when you're ready." Childe said sighing. "When do you think you'll be going back home Venti?" Zhongli asked. "I don't know..." Zhongli sighed, "You know what, I'll enroll you to a school." Zhongli said. "Why..?" Venti asked. "I want you to go to school and graduate so atleast you could provide money for yourself if you ever decide to leave." Zhongli said crossing his arms. Venti smiled, "Thank you, Sir Zhongli!" Venti thanked and left.
"You want to enroll a child that you barely know to a school?" Childe asked confused. "Yes." Zhongli responded. "Why??" Childe asked with visible concern for his husband. "I see something bright in that boys future." Zhongli chuckled. Childe looked at his husband confused but just shrugged it off and cuddled him.
"Venti, can I asked a question?" Ganyu said. "Sure! What is it?" Venti replied, cuddling with his pillow. "How old are you?" Ganyu asked. "I'm 17 turning 18 this June." Venti responded with a smile. "Your the same age as Xiao!" Ganyu exclaimed. "Really?" Venti asked. Ganyu just nodded her head in response. "Wait, do you have a phone?" Ganyu asked. "Yes, ehe." Venti answered. "I'll give you our numbers." Ganyu said. "Oh, alright." Venti took out his phone, Ganyu started reading the numbers out loud carefully. "Thanks Ganyu!" Venti smiled, "You're welcome Venti." Ganyu responded, smiling back at Venti. "Hey, I'll leave your room now, I have things to do." Ganyu said as Venti nodded and waved goodbye. After Ganyu left, Venti sat on his bed looking at messages from his parents that he ignored.

Venti read the messages but didn't bother to respond to their messages, instead he blocked them. He felt relieved knowing that his parents won't bother him for awhile. He scrolled through his contacts again and thought everything was plain in there so he edited everyones contact info.

Venti smiled at his work and charged his phone, then half bathed and slept.
Venti woke up and directly went to find his hair brush and brushed his precious black blue tiped hair. After that, he went downstairs to see everyone sitting on the table already. "Good morning." Venti greeted as he sat on his chair. Everyone greeted back exept for Xiao. Xiao was literally staring into nothing. "Pstt! You can't fall asleep on the dinner table Xiao." Ganyu whispered-scream. "Sorry." Xiao replied. "Shall we start eating our meal?" Childe asked and everyone nodded. "So, Venti," Zhongli started, "You'll start attending school next week." Zhongli said. "Alright." Venti replied smiling. Zhongli smiled back and continued eating his waffles. "Is it good dear?" Childe asked as Zhongli nodded smiling.
