Harry then crossed his arms. "When did Ma talk to you?" Harry said. "Your ma didn't. She talked to Moony who cares about all you kids. He talked to me, because you talk to me." Sruius said, putting a hand on Harry's should. "Ma is just worried. I'm fine, Pads." Harry whispered. "Harry, come on. You have been having a problem with your eating for a while, but never said why. Your ma is right. It is okay for you to have a problem, that doesn't make you any less of a man. It would and will if you don't get the help and pass out again. You want to be helpful to your family, how can you if you aren't healthy?" Pads said and after a sigh. "If I start eating at Ma's request, can we not discuss it?" Harry asked. "I disagree with you not discussing your troubles, but...yes. If you start eating properly, Breakfast and dinner at least...then I suppose we can not discuss it." Sirius said.

Sirius then walked his way over to Remus, who had just finished with milking one of their cows. "Good girl." Remus said, before he turned to face Sirius. "Yeah?" He asked. "How did you know?" Sirius asked. "Your chains make noises. You're used to them, and I know your foot steps, even on the hay." Remus said, picking up the bucket. "Harry tells me you have been doing this a bit." Sirius said. "Well, ma wouldn't just let me go so I had to." Remus said a bit fussy. "I know. I'll see if Moony can't help your Ma not be so... Protective." Sirius said. "Won't it just cancel out if he sees how you act or hear the way you talked about me to Harry?" Remus asked, getting followed on his walk. "Harry then talk to me. Understand we were only looking out for you." Sirius said. "Understand I am not an envolent. Understand it just takes me longer to learn to take care of things. Understand I have had it with being treated like I am incapable of taking care of myself or this farm." Remus said, pissed off. "I do, and I am sorry that I helped you feel such a way. I promise to talk to Moony who you know will talk to your ma. That...and maybe I can talk your pa into you coming with us hunting." Sirius said. "I know I have limitations. Hunting would be one of them. You just talk to Moony and the cousins and stop talking to me like I am a child." Remus said. "Alright." Sirius said, before he got back on his horse and headed home.

Harry joined in on the milking of the cows, so they sat on the stools when Remus heard the light footsteps, and Mary turn into the barn. Mary was their little seven year old long bright red hair, and throw her bike on the ground. That she had been pushing the last few feet. "Mary, what are you doing?" Harry asked. "Ma said I could help." She said. "Have Remus show you." Harry said, and she gave him a funny look. She knew Remus was blind. "Go." Harry then order the small girl, who nodded. Remus stood her between his legs, and she smiled lightly at his directions in what to do. She grinned when he took her hands and shown her, before letting her take over. She did love her big brothers and wanted to be more helpful on the Farm but sometimes they forget about her she thought. Harry noticed Remus's eyes not moving around like they normally did, or had done in the past. However, he past it off as his brothers used to control the movement of his eyes. So Harry kind of ignored the thought he had.
He had nearly forgotten about it as the morning went on. With it being Thursday, James was the one opening the store to be sure the truck would be on time tomorrow morning and be sure the paperwork over Draco and Richard was correct. He was sure it was, but he wouldn't be doing his job if he didn't check. So Harry was working on the farm that morning, the kids all now up and running outside or back in the barn with Lily. Harry was speading the hay and never had Harry seen Remus with those sunglasses on. Remus had been outside in the sun every day since the accident. "Remus, you alright?" Harry asked, as Remus grabbed the pitch fork. "Yeah. Just a bit of a headache is all." Remus whispered, before his wrist got grabbed to stop his movements. "You never get headachs." Harry said and Remus let out a sigh. "Just leave it alone, okay?" Remus said. "No, you want to help out...but if it's bothering-" Harry said, getting a punch in the shoulder by the pissed off Remus. "Sometimes your a dumbass, Harry. I have gotten headaches before!" Remus said, before Harry put a hand to his shoulder. "What is the matter with you? This isn't at all like you." Harry said. "Because I have had it with the lot of you acting like I am not able to handle myself or being worried when I have a headache. You don't trust me!" He said, pissed off. "I do trust you. I am just worried...and I...could have sworn that I seen your eyes actually focusing on something." Harry said claiming and after a pause, Remus removed the sunglasses. "You did...Two years ago, I had aunt Patty take me to a specialist...The damage was done, so I'll at the best I'll be legally blinded...but I have been able to make out the grey shadows in the blackness. Not real hopefully I'll every really be able to make out things again, but the world isn't all black anymore. No. I rather Ma or Pa not know...No point in getting their hopes up for something even I don't believe will come..." Remus whispered.
