Where Home Used To Be

When Bang Chan comes back to Sydney after years away, the last person he expects to still matter is Felix.

But some things never truly leave you. Not the route to Felix's house, not his phone number, not the cafe near campus where he always orders the same drink. Not even the little restaurant by the water that he swears has the best chips in the city. Chan remembers everything.

What he doesn't know is that Felix remembers everything too.

He remembers being left behind. He remembers waiting patiently for messages that never came. He remembers loving Chan silently for years and hating himself for never learning how to stop.

Now Chan is back and standing on his doorstep like no time has passed at all, while Felix is trying to finish uni while desperately patching up a broken heart.

Because coming home is one thing.
But asking to be let back in is another.
