6. Aleeza?
"REALLY HARRY? WHEN WERE YOU GOING TO TELL ME THAT I HAVE A BABY?"
Zayn screams as Harry's eyes widen in horror. He quickly puts a hand on Zayn's mouth in order to stop him from screaming.
"Pl-please don't scream Zayn. It's not good for Adi. Please?" Harry pleads to him. Glaring, Zayn nods at him. Harry sighs softly before removing his hand from Zayn's mouth and getting up from the couch.
Without a word, Harry walks away from him and disappears into a room that is next to the living room. Zayn frowns as the cries of the baby get louder. He frowns more when he realizes that the baby sounds to be in so much pain. Curious, he gets up from the couch with the album in his hand and walks into the room where Harry disappeared into.
The first thing that Zayn notices as soon he enters the room is, the walls are in peach and white colour. Everything isn't too bright or too dull either. The colours are in a perfect balance and soothing to eyes. He places the album on what seems to be a changing table and looks around the room closely. There are even some disney princesses on the peach coloured wall. He concludes the baby is a girl since everything in the room looks girly.
"Hey, everything is okay. Ssh, dada is here baby. You are okay. Don't cry." Zayn's eyes lands on Harry who is now craddling a small baby in his arms. Zayn mentally awes when he sees the tired yet loving look in Harry's eyes as he is looking down at the baby. But the baby doesn't seem to quiet down. In fact the cries are getting louder with every passing minute.
"Do you-do you think she is hungry?" Zayn surprises himself by suggesting that. Maybe he has surprised Harry as well because Harry is now looking at him with equal shock.
"N-No. I don't think so. I just fed her before you came." Harry informs him before looking down at her again and going back to craddle her in his arms.
"She sounds like she is pain." Zayn says as he approaches them. He doesn't know why but he feels like, he needs to look at the baby. He feels like something is pulling him towards her. He frowns when Harry takes a step back from him.
"Ye-yeah. She is. She had been in hospital for past 3 days." He tells him quietly. "She hasn't slept properly since then. That's why I was requesting you to not shout."
Okay, and now Zayn feels guilty. He now gets why Harry was telling him to quiet down earlier. It all makes sense now.
"What happened to her?" Zayn asks as he approaches them but again, Harry takes a step back. Zayn frowns, why is Harry acting like this? Why he is acting like he is protecting the baby from Zayn? Zayn is also his father , right?
"She caught a stomach bug. Also, she had high fever." Harry informs him quietly. The baby has finally stopped crying and now he's smiling up at Harry.
"She's okay now though. The doctor said, she needs rest and cuddles. Lots of it." Harry telks him while smiling down at her.
Zayn nods while looking at both of them. He smiles softly when he sees Harry humming a soft tune to her, lulling her into sleep. In no time, she falls asleep and Zayn doesn't know why, but he feels relieved.
"Have a good sleep, cupcake." Harry whispers to her and kissses her forehead softly. He gently places the baby in her cot and the sight brings a smile on Zayn's face. He can't believe how natural Harry is with the baby. He wonders if he was as natural with the baby before he lost his memory.
"I think you should go Zayn. It's getting late." Harry tells him quietly while looking at him. "I know you want answers but I think, it's better if you leave now. Just let Aleeza get better first, then I'll tell you everthing. Promise." Harry tells him with a tired smile.
Zayn doesn't argue anymore. He understands. He understands that at this moment, Harry's first priority is the baby. Aleeza, as he just got to her name. Zayn wonders who has named her because it's indeed a beautiful name.
"Yeah. Goodbye Harry." With a nod Zayn turns around and walks out of the room.
He is about to walk out of the main door when he remembers that he has left the album in the baby's room.
"Hey, I think I have left my al- Oh my God Harry?!" his words caught on his throat as soon he enters the baby's room. He quickly runs to Harry and kneels down beside him.
His eyes widen in fear and for the umpteenth time in the day, his blood runs cold. He looks at him closely and yes, he is indeed right.
There on the floor is lying Harry.
Pale and unconscious.
