CHAPTER 11

I shifted in my seat, getting myself comfortable and ready for what Harry was about to reveal to me.

He took a deep breath before speaking. "It's my dad. He's come back-"

"Your dad?"

"Dammit Charley!" Harry's eyes shut tight out of anger, and I cringed against my seat. "Do you want to hear this or not?"

I quickly nodded my head.

"Then stop interrupting me." He opened his eyes and looked straight at me.

I pantomimed shutting my lips with a key and throwing the key behind my shoulders, making him chuckle a little.

Then, Harry continued.

"As I was saying... it's my dad.. he's come back to us. To me, my sister, and my mum. And I'm not fucking happy about that." His eyebrows crossed as he moved his gaze to the ground, deep in thought.

"Um.."

He looked up at me and nodded. "Go ahead."

"Why aren't you happy about your dad coming back?"

He sighed. "He did something very bad to my family when I was younger, Charley."

I nodded understandingly, not sure if he was going to continue or not, since there was a long pause.

But thankfully, he did.

"And I was yelling at my mum because she was just gonna invite him back into our lives with open arms. Like nothing had ever happened before. Same with my sister, but it was mostly my mum." His jaw tensed, and I could tell it was hard for him to talk about this.

"Harry, you don't have to-"

"No. I need to tell you this."

I looked at him sympathetically as he looked back at me. "I don't know exactly when he's coming, though, but he is coming."

"To your house?"

He nodded.

"Well, are you gonna do anything about it?"

"I don't know!" He was yelling now, and I could tell he was loosing his patience quick.

I gulped and looked down at the ground, unsure as to how to respond to the situation.

But he spoke again, softly. "I'm sorry; I'm getting mad a lot. I'm starting to be like him. And I don't want that to ever happen."

I looked up at him and his eyes were watery.

I felt so bad for him.

"Can you tell me what he did to you and your family when you were a child, Harry?"

He wiped his eyes a little and sighed. "Yes. I can."

FLASHBACK

(HARRY'S POV)

It was a sunny day after school, and I was walking home with my sister Gems. I never liked taking the bus, especially because all the kids hated me.

And both my parents worked till late at night, so me and my sister were forced to walk home from school everyday since neither of us were old enough to drive yet.
