Harry woke up with a monitor beside him in the hospital and the room is pale since only a single light was turned on. He tried to remember what just happened. What he recalls was he passed out when he tried to stand up and remove the IV bag. He jolt when he heard a groan at the corner of the room, a shadow of a person sitting on the couch. He can't see the person's face, but he knew the man is looking at him.
"..and you are.." He asked. He can't help but felt nervous, there is strong dominance in his aura..
The man didn't answer but he slowly stood up and approach him. He still can't see his face but what he noticed is that, he is huge, with incredible impressive height. He is taller than Markus.
He stop near his bed and when the light hit his face, that's where he almost swallowed his own tongue.
"From the look of your face, I believe you already know who I am.."
Standing just a few meters from his bed is none other than the God Father of the organization, the founder of the biggest mafia in America.
Only a few people saw his face and know his name. Even Markus only saw him twice and none of his men including him know his name. However, the mansion has a large portrait of him.
He can't find a word to answer him. The man has a very strong superiority in his ambiance. Too strong that he can manipulate and control the people around him without doing anything.
"I understand your reaction. It's rare for me to show my face to my people. But do you know why I'm here?"
Harry took a few gulps and try to stay calm before he finally answer.
".. I betrayed our organization and kill our comrade.."
"And do you know the penalty of your action?"
"Yes. Death.."
"That is correct. But I will spare your life for the sake of my son and grandchild, Mr. Styles."
At first, he looked confused and didn't get what he said but when realizing the meaning of his words, it gives him a weak in the knee.
"Are you Zayn's father?"
"Yes, I am."
Harry was speechless, staring at the man who is looking at him like he is reading everything in his mind.
"I give you and Tony a tasks in the hopes that you'd get back together and you will stay away from my son. But I guess I made a mistake.." He pulls a piece of paper into his pocket and gives it to Harry.
He read the letter and found out that he is indeed 2 weeks pregnant.
"I will be direct to you Mr.Styles. I don't want my son to be involved with you. I want you to file a divorce and get out of this town. Fine a new life for the sake of your baby."
It was another blow at him, aside from the painful word that Niall throw at him the other day.
"With all due respect Mr. President, your son wouldn't like that. Zayn loves me, and he been fighting our acceptance and I'm going to do the same.." He tried to make a strong words despite the fact no one wants to accept their relationship.
There are a few seconds of pause happened before he speaks again.
"Do you know why I left my family, Mr.Styles?" There is enrage but a pain in his words. "..because I want them to have a good peaceful life.. Do you know how hard it is to sacrifice my family and left them and just be contented watching your son from afar growing up without you? I chose to leave so I can give them a safe and peaceful living. Because no matter what we do, society will never accept us! Let me ask you, how long will you fight for your acceptance and freedom? When every fight you fought there is always, someone who gets hurt! And in your case, my son always got to pay the price! he almost died twice ever since he meet you! Have you ever thought of that?!"
Harry's shoulder trembled, unable to control his tears from falling. It was a big slap in the face, he hates to admit it, but it was the truth. The truth that he was trying to avoid in the past and trying to convince himself that this relationship will work out.
"Z was aware of the situation but.. But we believe that if we stay together-we could have the peace that we are-" his voice is cracking and barely able to make a word. The reality is painful. No matter what he will say right now, no one will ever accept them. There is no chance that they will win. It's them against the world.
"How long are you gonna keep this up? When my son is already dead?!"
He bit his lips. That is the last thing he wants to happen. He loves Zayn so much, that words are not even enough to describe it. And he will do everything to protect him.
After Zayn's father left, Harry spend almost an hour crying in the room. Holding the annulment paper in his hand. He knew this is bad for his condition and the doctor advised him not to stress too much because he is still in his early pregnancy. So he tries to calm himself down and requests one of the nurses to help him to go to Zayn's room. When he arrived he stayed there for another hour and hope the time would stand still for them.
The doctor is still closely monitoring Zayn's condition. However, for now he still in comatose and still in risk. He started to cry again while holding the cold hands of his husband. It's time for him to say goodbye to this amazing beautiful man.
"Zayn, if you can hear me please come back. A lot of people need you.. And the good part is.. I found your father.." He sniff as his shoulder shook. ".. You have a wonderful, caring father Z.. He loves you.. I also want to say sorry.. Sorry for everything.. I can't be with you anymore. I guess I'm a coward after all.. I want you to move on and find someone who you can be proud of.. Just forget me.. Forget me Z.."
He places the annulment paper beside his bed and signs it. Then, he slowly took off his wedding ring and place it on the table. He turns around and walks away.
He went back to his room with a heavy heart. But he needs to be strong, despite losing everything, someone is yet to be born and needs all his love in the world.
===============================
" I will help you, I will give you time so you can talk to your men—"
"No.. I can't face them and tell them I'm leaving.. You can tell them that I died in Tony's place and I was not able to get out from the burning house.."
"Alright.. My men will be waiting downstairs. They will give you a ride going to the airport. My private plane will be waiting for you. You can tell the in-charge where you want to go.. I will give you two hours to prepare.."
