Midnight Memories

Chapter 16

Harry's POV:

"Yes or no?" I sigh. "Is Louis my biological brother?" I repeat my question. God, are the deaf or something?

It stays silence for a few more minutes. None of them answers my questions. And I'm sick of it. Louis isn't here so there must be something wrong. And Lisa and Walter won't answer my question. I'm just sick of it. Really.

I stand up. I won't stay here any second longer if the won't answer me. "Well, then I have to go." I say eventually and I walk out off the living room. Straight towards the front door.

"Harry! Harry, come back!" Lisa followed me. "Wait. Come back please."

I snap back. "Why would I come back? You two said I can come any time if I want some answers. Now I am here, you're just ignoring me or something like that. So give me just one reason, one single reason to stay."

"I uhm. No, we will give you all the answers. We will tell, you everything. But just stay, don't leave us again." She begs.

Do I have to believe this? Or should I go? I won't go because I want to have answers. I have to. So should I stay?

"Come back inside." Lisa begs me again.

I give in and nod. I need to know. I really need to. It sucks though that Louis isn't here. But he probably ran of again. Or did something really happened to him? More questions. Again.

I follow Lisa back into the living room. I don't take my place at the couch again. As soon as I get answers, I will. But for now, I am going to stand. Right here.

"So?" I ask again, a little irritated.

Lisa looks at me, tears filling her eyes. Then, she looks back at Walter. "You should say it." Is the only thing she says. I hear a muffled sob.

"Well, it's quite a long story. So why don't you take a seat." I walk back towards the couch, with reluctance clearly seen in my movement. Is sit down. "I'm listening."

"Okay. It started on a holiday. Your mom and dad were seeing each other, but it wasn't very serious at the time. They were seeing each other for around six months back then. Your mother went to Italy and she fell in love there. She forgot about your dad and your mom and Angelo had sex. Your mom got pregnant. She was shocked, but didn't want to get an abortion. Luckily. She came back home but didn't tell your dad. She just couldn't. They weren't in a real relationship, but the were dating. So she just couldn't. We are a few weeks further now, and your mom had to tell your dad. You can't conceal something like this. They were in a relationship now, so it was hard for her. And so was it for your dad. But they worked this out and wanted to keep the baby. Both of them. When Louis borned, they were so happy. Although your father wasn't Louis real dad. Around two years later, you were born. Your parents were so happy. Again. But you didn't look alike your brother. And that was a problem. You were going to ask things. And your parents had to make a decision. They wanted to give Louis up for adoption. We loved Louis so much. It was love at first sight. So we asked if we could take care of Louis. We were living in England back then but we wanted to go to Holland. When Louis was 3 and you were 1 back then, we got Louis and moved to Holland. But

Louis was having a hard time here. So did we. We just didn't fit in. We were just so different. So after a year we went back to England. Your parents weren't pleased with that. We didn't lived near by and didn't visit each other. But when you grew up. You were curious. And one day, you found a box in the garage. It was a box with pictures of Louis. From when he was a baby and how he is now. We sent them, your mother wanted us to. But as soon as your parents found out that you knew about Louis, they broke contact with us. They told you it was your cousin, and you believed it. Well, they thought you believes it. But you were curious, so you did some research and met us. And you met Louis. But Louis didn't know anything about it, he couldn't remember a thing. But you told him and you two got a very strong relation. Just like two real brothers. But then, Louis changed. He did things he shouldn't do. But he did though. And we just lost him. We haven't heard from him for the past few weeks. And we are worried. Really worried." Walter ends his story.

It is a long story, though. This is what I wanted to hear. The truth. And now I know what happened. I'm glad I know now. Is this the reason why my dad left my mom? I guess so. But dad isn't here anymore. He is upstairs. And although he was fighting with mom, nobody saw this coming. He shouldn't drank that much that night. Tears are filling my eyes. And I can't stop them. Why is life so unfair? Just why? Lisa sits next to me and starts hugging me. And I'm glad she does. Because I need a hug right now.

After a few minutes crying, my eyes are bloodshot. But I don't care. This is just to much at once.

"How long are you staying in Holland?" Walter asks me. He is the only one who isn't crying. I get that. Well, I guess so.

"Uhm, I don't know. I will see." I say honestly. I check the time. It is almost 11.30 AM. I really should go back to Emma.

"Do you have to go?" Walter asks me, referring to my watch.

"Yes, sorry. I have to." I say with a little sob.

"Okay, we'll see you back. Right?" Lisa begs me again.

I nod and stand up. I need to get out of here. I need to get things straight. I need to draw. I walk towards my car and get in.

Lisa and Walter followed me but I didn't notice. "Have a nice ride." I hear and start the engine. I nod and drive away. I drive away, thinking about everything. Everything I just heard. And that's a lot.

Hee guyss, I made a deal with my little brother. If I get 250 reads I will get some really good candy from my little brother! I've got 109 reads right now, but I will get there. Some day.
