Constraint >>H.S

Chapter 11

Nervous,yes that is actually an understatement of what I felt when I knocked on Harry's door. I didn't know what Anne was going to talk with me about but it didn't feel good nor bad.

I let out the big sigh that I had been waiting to release as Harry was the one opening up the door with a bright smile on his face.

"Good morning Harry" I smiled and bite my lip. Harry let out a light giggle.

"Good morning Alli,welcome I-In" he opened up the door and stepped to the side to let me step in. I nodded in a thank you and took a fast look around the hallway.

It was filled with family photos,a lot of them. It was a very warm and welcoming feeling in the house which I absolutely loved.

"Where can I put my shoes and jacket?" Harry fast looked down and pointed to where his own shoes and jacket were. I nodded and placed the shoes next to his and my jacket next to his,just like he did back at my flat.

"M-mom is in the kitchen...S-She wants to t-talk" he stuttered and smiled kind at me as he held onto his own hands. I smiled and looked around the corner to see Anne standing there drinking a cup of tea.

"Okay...are you going with me or...am I going alone?" I chuckled filled with nervous feelings. Harry shook his head and chuckled.

"I-I'll be in the living room,g-go on" he chuckled as he walked down the hall and held his hand out to the kitchen. I let out a deep breath before I stepped into the kitchen slowly.

"Anne?" I smiled knocking lightly on the wall making her look up from her cup. A bright smile,so much alike Harry's met me and I couldn't help but to smile back.

"Oh Alli! You came" she chuckled as she placed the cup on the desk and wrapped her arms gently around me. I hugged her back and nodded.

"Of course I came" I smiled and placed my hands in my jeans pocket.
"You...wanted to talk right?" I chuckled
nervous and bite my lip. She took a sip on her tea and nodded.

"Yes...I just wanted to thank you again. I don't feel like I thanked you enough yesterday. It was so late and we all were tired" I nodded understanding and then shook my head.

"It's really nothing...Harry is a good guy...I felt really scared and I was of course in shock as Harry came in...He was a mess" I sighed and furrowed my eyebrows.
"I just wanted to make sure he wasn't in pain"

"Yeah...you did the right thing,Alli. You know me and Robin were just worried about him...you know we found the car and Harry isn't...he isn't like us you know..." she sighed and shook her head.
I could tell Anne really loved her son more than anything and I couldn't blame her for that.

"We don't let him drive the car because...he can't really focus on many things at the same time and you know in traffic there is a lot going on" she widen her eyes as she said it and leaned against the sink.

"Yes...He was scared to come back ho e here because he thought his dad would
be angry about the car" Anne just chuckled and shook her head.

"Harrys in fact stepfather wouldn't be angry about that,he isn't and nor am I. Not in this situation"
Anne seemed to be such a good and loving mother that cared about her son more than her own life.

"Yeah I just wanted to thank you...Do you want to stay or?" She asked before drinking the last drops of the tea.
I wasn't very sure if I wanted to stay or not.

"I mean...if I am not bothering?" I chuckled awkwardly and scratched the back of my head.

"I am sure Harry would love if you stayed" a smile spread over my face as she brought up Harry's name.
I nodded and looked back to the living room were Harry sat with his eyes fixed in his phone screen. I nodded slowly,not taking my eyes of the boy sitting in the couch with a white blanket around his shoulders.
