Disclaimer:-

I'm sorry the chapter contains an attempted rape dialogue. The dialogue is in a hyphenated text, please don't read if you sensitive to the context. I didn't go into much explicit details but recognise it will be sensitive for readers as it was for me writing it. But the dialogue is necessary for what happens next to makes sense.

*******************************

Harry watched Zayn cuddled up to Doniya in bed. She was whispering in his ear and he was giggling. This hurt. Not being able to hold Zayn or let alone be few feet away from him. Apparently he was or is the trigger. What happened in that cottage affected Zayn, the doctor explained. It brought back old wounds his parents thought have long gone healed, but not, judging by the fact that Zayn is still in hospital three days in. They thought he looked better, he was talking again. But his care was being taken over by a psychiatric doctor who thought otherwise. He may look better physically but he still need to deal with his psychological issues that resulted in him being in hospital in the first place. He'd starved himself for two days knowingly, the doctor explained. He is not only a risk to himself but everyone close to him, he said. Harry thought that was just bullshit but he held it together listening to him say bollocks about Zayn as if he's a psycho. Harry moved away going to the next room, relatives room, where his mom, Trisha and the doctor were discussing Zayn's progress. It was in Zayn's best interest that these meetings happened without Zayn, another bollocks as far as he's concerned. Zayn should be involved in his care, but the doctor seem keen on separating them, them being Harry and the children. The doctor hadn't even met Zayn yet and he was judging him without getting to know the person. He'd said he was watching from a distance for now and today meant to make a decision about his discharge. Whether he was ready or not? He listened to the discussion, he was Zayn's next of kin but he was not in control of his husband's care.

"Your husband is not allowed access to them, yet"

"Not allowed access? Where are we? In  prison?"

"Well, um.." The doctor looked over at Anne and Trisha, who nodded,"He can't see them at the moment, but that's been reviewed daily"

"I think I may have black out during this conversation, what did I miss? What are you talking about, he can't see his own children?"

"He's still on the watch list"

"Okay, I need you to do something for me. Break this down to me as a lay person cause I don't understand shit you're on about"

"Harry, show some respect" his mom scolded.

"Show some respect?I know i sound like a cuckoo head repeating things, but I need to understand why I can't be alone with my own husband and my children have no 'access' to their father, mom"

"Your husband is on the suicide watch list?"

"This is a joke, right? Zayn on a suicide list? He's pregnant with our child and excited about that. He's happy, we are happy. He loves our children, adores them in fact. He is not suicidal, far from it, sir. He's in trauma which I know I have contributed to unknowingly"

"He's pregnant?" The doctor as well as his mom asked at the same time.

"Or you're focusing on that now, huh? Shouldn't you know that after doing all the tests, who's the doctor here?Not me" Harry answered focusing on the doctor, he can talk to his mom later.

"I'm sorry, doctor my son is not always like this. It's stress.."

"I understand. This is a stressful time and your husband doesn't need any more of that Mr Styles, all the negative energy you're emitting right now"
