Viewfinder drabble for
vf_scribbles "Going Home" challenge:
Finally Going Home
“So, tomorrow,” Chun muses through a cloud of cigarette smoke, “Finally going home, huh.”
Fei doesn’t dignify the remark with a response, just watches grey tendrils wreath upward across dirt-grimed brick, blocking out his cellmate’s idle chatter about his own plans upon release.
Fei knows where he’s going; that big, white house, empty now for these past two years. No more Father. No more Brother. Just himself, and the echoes of gunshots and madness and betrayal. A new cage, with himself as king spider, spinning alone at the centre of the web.
No, he won’t ever be going home again.
