Harry Styles

'Never mind.' Liam said. 'You know in which room Leah is?' He asked. 'Yeah in the same room as I laid.' I answered. 'Thanks bro, do you come with us?' Zayn asked.

'No I need a little stroll to clean my mind.' I answered him. They nodded and walked inside.

I moved further away from the hospital, I turned around the corner when I saw a lot of journalists standing there. 'One Direction was just seen here. Where they here to see their bandmate Harry Styles?' One said.

I made sure they didn't see me. They walked further but skipped the wall I was standing behind. I took my chance and walked away from the camera's. I think they didn't see me.

I saw a little shop, it was cute. I walked in, I was the only customer. 'Welcome boy.' An old man said. 'Hii.' I said to him politely. He smiled. 'Are you the owner?' I asked him. 'Owner?' He said in confusion. 'Like the owner of this little shop.' 'Oh yes my boy, it's a family business.' He answered me.

'It's lovely sir.' I said. The man answered me full of joy: 'Thank you. I wish my children thought the same about that.' His voice turned a little sad. 'What do you mean sir?' I asked him. 'They don't want to take over the business when I die.' He answered me. 'I'm so sorry sir, I hope they will change their mind.' I said to him, he smiled at me. 'I wish they were as polite as you young man.' He said. I smiled and took a look at the stuff he was selling.

I was filled with wonder. He sold little stones. 'These are so beautiful sir.' I said to him. 'I know, right? My wife and I always find them everywhere. Whenever we find them we sell them so others can enjoy it.' He said while his smile got bigger. This business was definitely his second love. I felt so bad his kids didn't want to run it after him.

I wanted to help the poor man to save his business, yet I didn't know how. I saw the beautiful stones and wanted to buy one. I couldn't decide which one I wanted, till I saw one with an ocean blue color, just like Leah's eyes. I picked two of them as I could give one to Leah too now.

I walked towards the cashier. 'These two, young man?' 'Yes please.' I answered the old man. 'Is it possible to make a neckless from one of the stones?' I asked the man. He walked away and came back with a neckless. The stone was now a part of a beautiful neckless. 'For a girl?' The old man asked me. 'Yes, a beautiful girl.' I answered him. 'I'm sure she will love it.' The old man added. I smiled at him and he smiled back.

He picked a little bag out of a box and put the stone and neckless in it. The neckless was packed into a paper so it looked like a little gift. 'How much does it cost?' I asked the man. 'It's free for you.' He answered me. 'No no sir I can't take this for free, I will pay you.' I said to him. 'No no please take it.' He said to me. I smiled at him. 'That's sweet sir but I can miss some money.' I said to him. I gave him £100. 'That's to much young man.' He said to me. 'Keep it.' I told him. He smiled at me, I hadn't seen anyone being this thankful in a while. 'Thank you boy.' He said to me. 'I hope it will help you and tell your kids that if they won't take over the business, than they can call me.' I said. 'What's your name young man?' He asked me. 'Harry Styles.' I said to him. 'I will write it down.' He said with a smile on his face. I smiled back and said: 'Goodbye sir, hope you will have a great day.' 'You too young man.' The old man answered me. I walked out of the store as I saw paparazzi standing there. They were filming me. 'Harry Styles just visited this little shop.' One of the journalists said.

I realized that they were now promoting the shop of the man without knowing it. I saw a man and a woman walking towards the shop. 'What is happening to our dad's shop?' The girl said. I walked towards them and said: 'So you are the kids that won't take over the shop?' 'Y-you're Harry S-Styles.' She said. 'Yes I am. And your father is very sad about the fact you guys won't take over the business.' I said. They kept quiet, they were probably shocked of what I just said. 'We will take over the b-business if t-that's what you want.' The son said. 'That's not necessary, but it will make your dad very happy.' I told them, they looked at each other when the girl said: 'I will take over the business, I didn't know it meant so much to my dad.' I smiled and said: 'Yes it's his passion, he was so happy when I walked in and bought some stones. He would love to see you guys work in there.' They smiled and the girl answered me: 'We will take over the business.'

I nodded and walked away, I tried to avoid the annoying paparazzi. I think they were to busy with the store I just walked out of.

I walked back to the hospital as I felt better.

I saw Niall walking out of the hospital towards the car, he stood on the street and waved at me. I saw a car coming close to Niall, I was scared he was going to hit Niall. I screamed: 'Niall watch out!'

But I was to late.
