Auren Han logs out of the relay tunnel, rubs tired eyes.
His curly haired boy is not coming back to the house tonight. He’s doing some damn hyper-futuristic collaboration with a group of university students, actors and musicians. Auren can’t imagine how on earth he will bring up the subject of an obscure Baroque violinist when he, Auren, is supposed to be a flat-eared philistine.
Or how he will be able to watch the curly haired boy walk off, bearing that viola case towards the end of the world.
Barret, damn him, was not supposed to find the hole in a man’s heart and climb in through it.
That was not in the contract.
