It felt like someone was surrounded in darkness then some touch of white lights and darkness again. Harry struggled to open his eyes by blinking and when he finally succeeded, he was surprised to see a different ceiling and when he tried raising his hands, he noticed he was on a drip.
“Don’t move, let me call the nurse” a familiar female voice sounded.
“Emma?” He called weakly.
“I’m here” Emma who was about to step out rushed back in.
Harry could finally see her face.
“What happened to me? Why am I here?” He managed to ask.
“I don’t know. All I know is you went to Westely High to make some delivery when a psycho beat you up and maybe used your scooter to hit your head” Emma replied, from her tone you’d know she wasn’t pleased.
“Do you know you hit you?” She asked as if she was ready to go back to Westely High and avenge him and knowing the kind of person Emma is, Harry couldn’t underestimate her.
He tried remembering what happened but all he could grab was the pretty face of the girl that bumped into him.
“There was a girl,” he said and Emma nodded- paying full attention.
“She was really pretty,” he added.
“And?” Emma raised her brows, hoping he’d say more.
“That’s just it, she was really pretty” Harry smiled and Emma suddenly felt like strangling him with the pillow he was resting on.
“Brother Harry!!” The door opened and Barry suddenly rushed in with his mother.
“Does it hurt?” Barry’s eyes were watery, seeing his brother in bandage and drip even one of Harry’s eyes were black.
“It doesn’t, big brother is indestructible” Harry boasted and Barry happily hugged him.
“Ouch!!” Harry bit his lips when his brother rested on an injury and Emma couldn’t help but smile a little.
“Go in!”
“I’m not going!”
“Go in and apologize!”
Everyone put their attention to the murmurs coming from the door where Tessa and Mrs Baker were struggling.
Seeing that everyone’s attention was finally on them, Mrs Baker smiled nervously.
“My name is Mrs Flores Baker and this is my daughter Tessa. She was responsible for all that happened and we came here to apologize” She explained in a way that it wouldn’t sound weird in her ears then pushed Tessa forward so she could proceed to apologize.
Emma stared at Tessa head to toe with a black look. There was no doubt that the girl standing before her was pretty. Fresh skin, spotless face, inky dark hair but being pretty doesn’t give you the right to kill someone right? Emma concluded that Tessa was evil.
“But I don’t get it, Harry is a good kid and wouldn’t do anything bad to anyone that would result in him in this condition, right Harry?” Amanda stared at her son who was engaged in staring at Tessa’s face.
“Harry!” Emma called and Harry came back to earth.
“Mom is right, I was only trying to stop her from bumping into me. I didn’t expect her to be so wild, I’m just a little boy working as a delivery guy to earn for himself and his little brother” Harry sounded pitiful and Emma knew he was up to something.
“Tessa” Flores gave her an eye signal to apologize.
Tessa slowly stared at Harry and the moment he met eye contact with her, she frowned at him.
“Hey you, are you gonna apologize or not? You did something bad and you’re still frowning or you wanna get it from me!” Emma could no longer ignore what was going on.
Tessa gave Emma a daring look.
“It seems like your daughter isn’t remorseful! How about we send her to jail because people like her deserve to be locked up in the prison? Who beats people up for no reason?” Emma added.
Tessa suddenly ran out of the ward.
“Hey! Tessa you better not! Tessa!!” Flores shouted but it was too late. She faced everyone with an apologetic look. “I’m sorry, I didn’t want to say this in front of her but my daughter is not mentally stable that’s why she acts some ways sometimes,” Mrs Baker said sadly.
“I figured” Emma scoffed.
“Can I apologize on her behalf? If there’s anything you want me to do to make up for today, I promise you, I’d do it” Mrs Baker pleaded.
“I want you to sponsor my education and make sure I enroll in Westely High, ” Harry suddenly said- like he had been waiting for this opportunity.
Everyone: “…”
When Harry saw everyone was speechless at his sudden request, he added; “And I want you to sponsor my friend as well”
He was referring to Emma.
“Are you kidding me?” Flores widened her eyes.
“You won’t do this?” He faked a surprise look. “But your daughter almost killed me. It will be better if I just call the corps and leave them to handle this themselves”. Turning to the other side of the bed, Harry added in a fake voice; “Mom I don’t wanna see any unknown visitors again”.
“Fine, I will do it!” Flores shouted immediately.
Harry slowly turned back to her with a ‘there’s no taking it back’ grin on his face.

Harry had just been discharged, and his mother was holding his hands and helping him go outside. Emma had already gone home and she took Barry along with her.
“Mom she only hit my head, not my legs I’m fine” Harry complained when his mother was pulling him a little too hard.
“Shut it! You don’t know how bad I want to squeeze your ears right now!” Amanda glared at him.
“Why do you wanna squeeze my ears? What did I do?” Harry pouted his lips.
“How could you request such a thing from that woman? Don’t you think you were being a little too much?” Amanda stopped walking so she could scold him properly.
“Did you just say I was being too much? That girl almost killed me, Mom, are you saying my life is not worth that big school? Mom?” Harry raised one of his brows as though he couldn’t believe what his mother just said.
“You’re good at this, aren’t you? Let’s go you little master manipulator” Amanda scoffed and left him behind.
“Hey Mom, wait for me!!” Harry shouted and ran after her so he could catch up. He hugged his mom’s hands with a kind of smile he knew she couldn’t resist.
“I don’t like it when we fight like this mom, I love you. That school is really big, the first day I saw it I knew it was like a dream come true. I can go to the science department so I can finally be a medical doctor” He pouted his pink lips as he explained himself to his mother.
Amanda was trying not to smile.
“I thought you hated doctors because the hospital smells bad?” She asked.
“I do but I searched for it and saw doctors make mad money. I need money not a dream… Wait, my dream is to make money and once I get that, I can buy you a separate house, I can buy Barry cool cars and I can get you whatever I want, no one will look down on this family” he said boastfully.
Amanda couldn’t stop herself from smiling. She hugged her son’s shoulder as they both proceeded to their house. When they got in, the whole place smelled like beer and cigarettes.
Harry’s mood changed faster than a blink.
“Is this the reason you let Barry spend the night at Emma’s? You knew he would come over right?” He angrily looked at his mother.
The door pushed open and a man dressed in rag clothing holding a cigarette in one hand and a beer bottle in another hand as he staggered with a drunk look on his face smiled at them.
Harry hated to admit but this was his father.
“Haven’t seen you guys in a while, are you avoiding me?” He staggered forward and Harry immediately blocked his mother by spreading both arms.
The man laughed.
“I’m not touching your useless mother, I just want to see my little son,” he said, unfortunately.
“You don’t have any son in this house old man” Harry eyed him.
The man laughed even more and pointed his fingers at them, shaking it as if to warn them about something.
“I will come back later and I better see my son or everyone in this neighborhood will hear it from me” After giving his threat, he staggered out of the house.
Harry faced his mother and hugged her tight. “And if I have money, I will make sure he won’t bother us for the rest of our lives” he added and kissed his mother’s head.
