The Rain Falls on Her Side

Xu Aiqing's mother disappeared for seventeen years. Official statement: lost. He didn't believe it. A hair that can't be cut or burned. A membrane that only he could see. A crack older than the city. He breaks into a museum and sees something that shouldn't be there. The world has an extra layer. The other fucking side of that level. Alive. What are you holding on to? Seventeen years. Someone didn't want him to know. Someone left a note at his house: "Stop checking." His dad knew it rained that night. But he said "I didn't say anything". Xu Aiqing didn't care. He waited two years. He didn't care to wait any longer. He doesn't care about the cost. He wants to bring her back.
