HIM

CHAPTER 50

Harry didn't believe what he saw, he was surprised. I have been planning this with Emily and Karen since yesterday and I called them today after Dr. Calder has given me the permission for Harry to go back home to tell them that we were about to leave. It eas a little bit tiring but it was worth it especially after seeing Harry's expression.
"When did you do all that?" Harry asked.
"Karen and Emily have done all all." I said while eating the cake that Emily has baked for him.
"You didn't have to do all that." He said, I think he was really shy.
"No, we have only one Harry."
"Yeah, it was worth all the work and tiring." Karen said
"Thank you all." Harry said.
We all sat together silently for a couple of minutes.
"How is the situation in Minnesota?"
"It's great and all our relatives are wishing you to get well soon."
"Did you tell them?" Harry asked angrily.
"Yeah, we had to tell them." Emily said.
"I didn't want anyone to know that."
"Why?" Karen asked. I didn't really want to answer that question instead of Harry though I know how he is feeling, that's not how he thinks.
"For any reason, that doesn't matter."
"No, that matters." Karen said.
"You don't know what matters to me and what doesn't so, shut the fuck up."
"Fine." Karen said standing up and grabbing her bag.
"Let's go." Karen told Emily."He doesn't deserve all that." She said.
"Yeah he doesn't." Emily said and then both of them got out of the front door.
"One second, Harry." I told Harry.
"Are you going to apologize to them? Because I don't regret one word of what I have just said."
"No, I am just going to goodbye them."
"Fine, but don't be late."
"Okay." I said. I ran to the front door so that they don't wait for a long time.
"You are fablous actors." I told Karen and Emily laughing.
"Yeah, told you so." Karen said.
"Have a good night, dear." Emily said.
"Thank you. And you drive safely." I said hugging them.
"Take care of my boy." Emily said. That shouldn't be said because she know really well that I am the best one to take care of him.
"You needn't say so." I said
"I know that." She said and kissed me on the cheek.
I watched them as they rode the car and disappeared down the street. Then, I entered the house again and I didn't find Harry. He can't be upstairs, how would he go there?
"Harry! Harry!" I called but there was no answer.
"Harry!! where are you?" I called again. I wandered in the house to look for him and then I found te back door which led to the backyard. The door was transparent so, I could see him through the glass, sitting on his wheelchair under a light pole which was shining in a faint yellow light which showed few pink flowers scattered around the backyard and a wooden bench by the far end of the backyard and it was hardly seen in the faint light. There were another poles but it had no light, I think the lamps needed to be changed. This yard can be really beautiful, but I can see that no one had cared about it for a long time the flowers were just.. dead.
"Here you are.!" I said opening the transparent door.
"Hey baby!" He said with his raspy voice trying to hide the weakness in it.
"What's wrong?" I asked walking to him and then I sat on my knees on the floor infront of him.
"Nothing." He said.
"No secrets, remember?" I said trying to light him up a little bit.
"I just.. you know, can't believe how things can just change in just a second. like a couple of days ago, I would run everyday, play soccer and so but now, I am helpless, I just can't even go to the bathroom on my own."
"I know, I know. You have to be grateful that this is not permanent and you would be able to walk and do whatever you want in a few months, you know what Dr. Calder had said?"
"What?"
"He said that if you do the exercises everyday, you would be treated sooner than you would think."
"Really?" He wiped a tear that was falling on his cheek, he just changed into a kid in just a couple of seconds, he is just a little boy who needs someone to care about and be with him anytime he needs someone to stand by him.
"Yeah. And you should be happy because your situation now is the reason why I have moved to live with you."
"Yeah, you are right" He said. He grabbed my arm and then made me sit on his lap. I sat on his lap and put my both arms around his neck loosely to hug him and I rested my head on his shoulder.He hugged me from around my waist, he held me really tight and rested his head on mine.
"Don't you ever leave me." He said as if he was begging me desperately.
"Never. And you know that." I was reassuring myself that we will be together forever and he will be by my side till the end than promising him that I will never leave him alone.
We sat in a comfortable silence for I don't know how long at the same state and it was the best feeling ever.
