Chapter 1 (Hai Kuan leaving Yibo)

This sun is still hiding his face behind the cloud as it is still early in the morning at 5 am. Everyone is sleeping sweetly and soundly in their warm bed, some even snuggling up to their parents for some warm. This is not so for Yibo. Yibo is stirring in his sleep, with a mattress that is so thin that actually it feels like he is sleeping on a wooden bed, hard and tough but still it is the floor and Yibo has gotten used to it that he feels nothing about it although sometimes, his bones hurts like hell. This is because, Yibo is just too thin for his height, standing at 1.79com, Yibo weigh below 60kgs. Thus, when he sleeps on the thin mattress his backbones is actually hitting the floor. He is again sleeping in the dance studio floor and here is the main reason.

Yibo lives in a small and broken down house with his father alone. He still remembered the tragic day that his brother Hai Kuan left him for another city.

Flashback to TWO Months ago

It is a raining day with such heavy cloud waiting for their turns to explode their heavy and well contained droplets of water in their bubble. Yibo is usually working every day but because of the weather forecast of a storm coming, the part-time job as a cleaner in a dance studio was cancelled but the owner Mr Cheng who is always kind told Yibo that he will still give him the pay because it is no fault of his that he cannot clean the studio. Yibo was actually really relieve because his studies has been long neglected with all the odd jobs that he is doing, today would be a good day for him to catch up on his studies and assignment. Yibo has always been intelligent, it only takes him half the time of others to finish his studies and work, however, he still needed the time to do his study stuff.

Even the condition in the house didn't deter his mind to stop working on a very old laptop passed down from his brother Hai Kuan which usually have a tamper, the laptop is so old and worn out that sometimes it will shut down automatically by itself with glitches (I am not talking about wattpad glitches, it is the laptop problem). Today must be Yibo lucky day or maybe not because he has almost finished his homework in an amazing time. The water leaking from the roof which has lots of small pails and containers holding them on the floor did not disturb the slightest at all for Yibo's concentration on his school work. Actually every now and then, Yibo has to go and pick up those containers to pour the water away so that it will not overflow onto the floor. There are certain places in this tiny poor conditioned house that has no leaking and that is where the beds are usually situated in order to try and have a good night sleep.

YIbo is stretching his arm as his father who was drunk last night woke up from the sleep from a bed not too far away. Yibo knew that his father can be violent if food is not ready when he is awake. Immediately, Yibo dropped everything that he is working on. Keeping his laptop because he doesn't want his father to damage it and cleared the table for his father to have some food. There was actually nothing much left in the fridge but because Yibo has always been skill in cooking from whatever that he can scramble to find, so now there is some congee with eggs and some tiny bits of chicken. Yibo knew that the meat is really not enough, so he only eats the congee with eggs and keep all the meat for his brother who is working hard and also his alcoholic father whose violent temper can be unbearable.

Mr old Wang Yuan woke up and slowly using his shaking hands due to his alcohol consumption, Mr Wang no longer has a steady pairs of hands, they are now shaky and weak. Mr Wang comb his untidy hair with the shaky hands and walk towards the table and he sit down

"Water" Mr Wang yells

Immediately, the boy took a cup, pour some warm water for his father, who glared at him
