Lexi wasn't home for dinner either. Apparently she forgot to buy something, and she disappeared before I could get one last look of her. I thought that we were about to leave after dinner, so the awareness about not seeing her again was like I missed a big chance. Of what? I don't know. Luckily, I was wrong about the leaving part. Three hours later, I marched in and out from the living room and helped Daisy to carry everything back to the kitchen. She was happy, jumped around and laughed at every bad joke I managed say. Even though Lexi wasn't here at the time, I bet Daisy was happy because of the couple hours she had spent with her sisters. It seemed like she had missed both of her sisters company. I soon realized that Amber and Louis did not return to Ambers room after dinner to get their stuff, but to do other so called.. business. The next hour I realized that we were staying one more night. And.. I didn't complain.
"What did you think of the book?", Bruce smiled as he sat down beside me on the couch. It squeezed.
"It was good, have a couple pages left", I answered politely and he nodded his head.
Really, I read the book without actually reading it. My brain was way too lazy that afternoon to picture different of images of what I read or even manage to understand the meanings. Still, I enjoyed doing nothing.
"I have another book, about soldiers from Iraq. You can have it, since.. Louis told me about how you met and where", Bruce spoke, carefully as his blue eyes looked at me with pride, "You're strong young men", I smiled, "So many people are so grateful for what you've done", he spoke, "It's impressive, Harry".
"T-thank you", I carefully smiled and Bruce patted my shoulder.
"Louis also told me about a photograph?".
I laughed.
"He have told you much", Bruce laughed along with me, "And, well.. I found a photograph there, and thanks to it I met Louis and .. It saved my life. We both called it my miracle".
"And you're in search for the girl on it, right?".
"I-I mean yeah, but I enjoy just.. being on this trip too", I spoke honestly and Bruce nodded his head.
"You know, I loved to travel. It was my passion, photography and traveling".
"Yeah I saw some of your photographs in Lexis bedroom".
"Yeah, she loves them", Bruce laughed. A frown appeared on my forehead as I noticed Bruce's blue eyes turn sad and his head carefully fell, "Is the only ones we managed to save", he spoke lowly, and before I could speak up, he looked up and managed to show the huge smile of his, "Anyway, me and Judie thought that you could sleep on the couch, if that's okay with you?"
"Yes, of course!", I nodded my head, trying to avoid the coming curiosity of what Bruce said.
"Great", Bruce cheered and raised up.
The same second, the house door opened. I hold myself not to laugh as the big Rottweiler ran inside the living room and without any hesitation jumped up on the exact same spot where Bruce just sat.
''Honey!'', he groaned and gestured down on the floor, ''Down, right now!''.
Instead, the dog jumped closer to me making me smile big as it placed it huge head down on my lap, which after a short while felt a bit heavy.
''I guess you'll have to sleep with Honey then, is that okay?'', Bruce laughed and I was just about to answer when another voice interrupted.
''Honey doesn't like when others sleep close to her, dad'', Daisy laughed as she marched inside the living room, placing her arm around her dads torso making him hug her back from the side, ''But she's maybe okay with Harry, I don't know'', she smiled.
