14: Haunting past, tethering present

Harry's pov

Two weeks have passed since I arrived here in Perth, Australia.
They have been the best weeks by far. Not a day had passed without me texting Bella or talking to her over phone call . It started from the day when I asked her to skype me because I wanted to see her wound, at first she was hesitant and I too was not sure if I did right by asking to video call her.
Nonetheless she agreed and ever since then we've been skyping and texting on what seems like a regular basis.

It feels as if I had learnt a lot about her in just this one month.

As nothing has ever been normal for us, we've bonded more, over phone calls and texts during these weeks than we have by meeting in person.

She is now more free and comfortable talking to me same goes with me , now I don't have to think twice before speaking to her, I could just freely say whatever is there in my mind.

Thats the progress we've made by far.

However these things are making it even more difficult for me to spend two more weeks here in Australia.
I can't wait to go and see her again!

"Harry , you've just got one more hour to zone out . The sound check will start at 5pm sharp." Said Charles.

I gave him a thumbs up in response not bothering to reply him.

He huffed and left my room, probably pissed of because of my behaviour.

When I was about to go freshen up my phone beeped .

Expectent, I reached out for it hoping it was Bella .

However it was Gemma messaging me.

(Bold is Gemma & Italic is Harry)

It read..
Hey brother guess what newzzz do I have for you?

Tell me what it is?

We are coming to America just two days after you reach there!

We?

Mom, Dad, Hero and I.

Which 'dad'? If I may ask?

I couldn't help but send this message out of anger.

Harry. We have discussed this before. Haven't we?

We have but it didn't include mom and that man to come to my house.

I didn't plan on telling you this over text but now I couldn't care less . Harry mom's condition is getting worse day by day, physical as well as mental.

She grieves treating you the way she did. She is considering herself guilty for your sufferings.

Listen I'm not asking you to forget everything or forgive her or dad. I know its not that easy for you. I'm just asking to let her see you once ,atleast .

What do you mean by her condition getting worse?

I consulted a doctor, he said that she is repelling what she did and its affecting her mental health....

But that doesn't mean I'll allow that man to enter my house!

Harry please do this for mom's happiness, her health. You know she thinks she is the reason for your wrecked relationship with dad?

I decided to divert the topic .

Anyways.
How is Ireland ?

About my life in Dublin,, its going great...

I felt relieved she didn't push on that topic anymore.

You got something to tell me?

How do you always get to know when I'm trying to keep something from you!?

Its some trait I got from you big sis.

Lets see when you'll be in my situation. Anyways , yes I have something else to tell you.

And I can't wait to hear it.

Okay. So I've been seeing someone...

Oh you were.
Do you think I didn't get it already?

Well.. I was going to tell you.

Its okay Gemma you get to take your time. I just hope you're happy with him?

Oh believe me Harry he makes me so happy!

So how far have the things gone?

Umm. We have been seeing each other for just a month now but I know him from two months.

?

Before meeting in person we met online and texted for over a month.

Hmm. I am happy you finally got a life..

Still my first priorities will always be you and mom.

I know I know.

Exhausted, I decided to close my eyes
and rest for some more time.

Bella's pov

"Soo how was your first day at school?"
I asked Gia.

"Grreat and exciting." She replied giggling.

"Ahaan, what exciting did you do?"

"My teacher asked us to intro-uh-intr.."
She was fumbling when I said.

"Introduce?"

"Ahaan she asked us to introduce ourselves. "

"Is that ? So what did you tell?"

"I said "Hello my friends. My name is Gia ." "

"Aww. Thats a great introduction. "

"Thankyouuuu."

"And what else did you do?"

"We danced, painted, played....."
She went on telling me her list when Elena entered.

"Gia do you know what I bought for you?" I said.

She shook her head.

"Here is...this colouring book that you wanted. "

"That that sea animals one?"

"Ahaan . Exactly that one which my peanut butter wished for." I said and gave her the book with a quick peck on her cheek.

"Gia go now don't you want to start colouring ?" Said Elena.

"Okay."

"So how is life going?" I asked Elena.

"Bella..." she said and broke down.

"Ele..Ele? What happened?"

"Gia.."
I knew exactly what she was referring to I decided not to speak anything and let her cry it out also if I tried to console her I doubt I'll end up crying to.

"Doctors are saying...."
She trailed of.

"Hey..hey..Elena I know what doctors said. You don't worry we'll do our best and give Gia the best of best treatment she deserves. "

"How will I tell her?"
She asked the most vexed question.

"Do..don't worry I'll..I'll do that. But you have to be stronger , strong enough to support her through this back breaking situation"

"(Sniffs) You're right I have to be strong, strong for my baby." she said wiping her tears.
