Harold walks alone and stops for a water break and drinks it from the river. After a while, he stops drinking and looking at the reflection
Harold: (sigh) I'm not brave enough to be Bravestone, but I'm still brave to be alive. (with the gem) Well, I'm still here holding the jewel, But I must go to the bazaar to find a missing piece.
Harold got up and heard Ari crying while sitting on the rock and walks closer to make sure it was her. She's very emotional
Harold: Ari?
Ari: (sniffed) Harold?
Harold: A-are you okay?
Ari *lies*: Yeah. I'm fine.
Harold: You don't look fine. And what are you doing here all alone?
Ari: I'm just... (sigh) I'm not just a good friend you've ever met.
Harold: What? W-what do you mean?
Ari: I ruined your friendship with George. Is it because of my drawing skills?
Harold: No. I mean, yes. But you ruined my friendship with George.
Ari: And that's my problem.
Harold: How long have you been sitting?
Ari: three minutes. How about you?
Harold: Same.
They smiled and Ari comes out of her mind
Ari: Harold?
Harold looks at Ari
Ari: Remember your weakness, trauma?
Harold: Yeah, but I don't what that means. Why? You've know about this?
Ari: Yeah, but I told Melvin about your weakness and it means something bad happened to you by your relatives as your childhood.
Harold: Oh.
Ari: Do you have a story about something bad that happened to you?
Harold: Yes. I do have a story. But I don't wanna talk about it that much.
Ari: I won't tell anyone but you. We're in private with rivers.
Harold: Okay. If you said so. (flashbacks then narrates) When I was a baby, I had a happy family of my life and we moved to Vine Street in Piqua, Ohio when I was six years old. I'm still having a fun time with my parents. Until one night...-
Mrs. Hutchins was washing dishes and then saw Young Harold with bruises and cuts
Mrs. Hutchins: (gasp) Harold! What happened to you?
Young Harold: Daddy hurt me.
They heard a car screeched and Mr. Hutchins comes in drunk
Mrs. Hutchins: Jerry! Where have you been? Do you even know what time it is?
Mr. Hutchins: Uh...
Mrs. Hutchins: It was almost midnight!
- They started to argue bad and then...
(this is getting violent, I'm sorry)
Mr. Hutchins threw the thin glass vase at Young Harold without paying attention at him and he and Mrs. Hutchins screamed
Mrs. Hutchins: Jerry! What were you thinking? Hurting our child?
- My mom took me to Urgent Care to put the bandage on my face and my arm.
Doctor: There you go, little guy. This will take five weeks.
Mrs. Hutchins: Five weeks?
Doctor: He has minor wounds on his face and arms this would take three weeks and also contusion would take a couple of weeks.
Mrs. Hutchins: I understand.
- And the next day, my mom dropped me off at my grandpa's house to watch me when she's gone. And then my parents got divorced and my father moved to Nevada. And finally, I'm safe for now.
Mrs. Hutchins hugs Young Harold
Mrs. Hutchins: Don't worry, Harold. You're safe now.
Young Harold hugs Mrs. Hutchins back and went back home safe and sound and flashback ends
Harold (normal): And it was a normal day. And I'm never wanna see him again.
Ari: ... Oh. That's... terrible. Very terrible. And I'm gonna be honest, this is much worse than you got bullied by Kipper.
Harold: I know. I'm glad you're here.
Ari: And I'm glad you're here, too.
They smiled and stare at each other
Ari: Oh. We gotta go. And you still had a jewel?
Harold (with his jewel): Yes. I still got it.
Ari: Good. Let's go to the bazaar before any bad guys see us.
Harold: Agree.
