Harry went back home smiling at Zayn's reaction. No matter how old someone was, there was no such thing as too experienced, he realized. It was normal to be nervous, even he was nervous for him despite knowing that he would do well. 

Before leaving him, Zayn had kissed him lightly, but he was still giddy. And his fangs and claws were still out.

What was this man doing to Harry?

Harry let himself fall back on his bed and kept giggling to himself. Abruptly he stopped. What was he doing? He had important things to take care of. He would see Zayn later anyway when he comes to have dinner with his mother. 

Now he had to prepare for his fighting lesson with Roshan. It would be awkward if he knew what happened between Harry and his son. Not that Zarin was the type to tell his parents anything or listen to them. Every time they told him to do something or not to do something he would say, "alright, I will" or, "alright I won't" and then forget about it the next moment. 

One day his mother had enough and dragged him to his lesson. "If you don't attend your lessons, don't come back home." She told him. 

Zarin was closer to his mother and Gina to her father. Every time there was a fight between the parents, Roshan would say, "you spoiled your son. Look how well I raised my daughter." 

Just like the way his mother spoke to his father, "you spoiled your son." 

Your? It was never our when they did something wrong. 

It was the same when one parent did something wrong, "your father knows nothing." 

Harry thought it was hilarious. Sometimes he wanted to correct them and say, "my father and your husband." Sometimes he even wanted to tease his mother and say, "it's his Majesty, the King. You could get executed." 

Only a year ago Harry remembers a conversation between Roshan and his father. they were both were complaining about raising children.

"I never thought it would be this difficult." He said. "The more they grow, the harder it gets."

His father nodded in agreement. "As a parent, it feels like whatever you do, it is not enough." 

"Harry and Gina are fine, but raising Zarin…" Roshan shook his head. 

His father chuckled. "That kid is rebellious. He will calm down eventually." 

"When?" Roshan asked. "When I was his age, I was taking care of my father's business and bringing in more wealth than him. When you were his age, you had already joined the royal council, were a commander of the royal army, and won several battles. When his uncle was his age, he was establishing a kingdom. Men his age are providing for their families." 

That was the day Harry realized he had duties and responsibilities. He couldn't just deny getting married. It was his duty as a prince. 

No matter how playful Roshan was, when it came to business he was serious. "Time and money are things you need to use wisely." He would tell them. "Use your brain and your strength generously. The more you use them, the stronger they grow." 

He would always give them advice from time to time, Gina would take them and Zarin would leave them. 

Because of Roshan, Harry had learned to not blame his parents and appreciate them.
