"I can't believe you, Amy." Harry snarled at Amelia who sighed heavily at her brother's angry expressions.

It's been a week when Harry woke up. He was weak and extremely in need of heavy nutrition. The doctor especially instructed Amelia to not let Harry skip any meals.

His body is still weak but better than before. At first, he couldn't be able to sit properly but after 2 days of eating properly meals, he started sitting up. But still, it's hard for him to walk properly.

Amelia had to help him in walking him to the bathroom or garden. Amelia didn't know how to explain to him the things that happened in past one year and 6 months of him being in a coma.

She started with how Rose told the truth and he was proven innocent on which Harry didn't show any specific emotion. He was blank and his face was void of any emotions.

She then explained how Liam had made sure to put her in a condition where she had to agree with the marriage. She told him about Xander that how the marriage was only for his son but with time he asked for a chance and she decided to give him.

Liam's matter was hard to explain. She didn't want to explain much. But Harry was more curious to know about Liam than anyone else which kind of surprised her.

She explained everything Liam did before and after the final trial. She told him about the accident. His guilt. His affair. His beggings. His acceptance of giving up on her. And finally.

Forgiveness that she gave him.

Harry couldn't believe his ears hearing that she forgave him. That bastard. Amelia was shocked to hear her brother cursing Liam.

Harry was the one who respected Liam beyond everything. Liam wasn't just a brother in law to him. He was a guardian. A real brother to Harry. But after all of this indeed Liam is nothing but a bastard to the same man who respected him the most.

"Forgive him! You forgave him that easily. That bastard can choke on his fucking guilt for all I care. That shameless bastard dared to ask for forgiveness. If he had a little bit of a shame he would have drowned himself in his luxury bathtub till now."

He let out breathing heavily. Amelia instantly rubbed his hands to calm him down.

"Listen Harry. I know why you're saying all of this and I don't blame you. But please calm down. It's not good for your health. You will understand why I forgave him but right now please relax."

Harry took deep breaths calming his nerves as he felt like destroying everything. He can't forget. He can't forgive. He can never be a great man to forgive the bastard who did so much to his one and only family.

All he wanted for Liam was to never show his face in front of him otherwise he had no idea what he will end up doing to him.

"Whose that Xander guy," Harry questioned making Amelia smiled softly.

"He's a nice man. You will like him. He's quite cold and not good at showing emotions but he's a great man." Harry smiled relieved seeing the sincerity dancing on her face.

"I am fine with him as long as he wouldn't hurt." Amelia chucked nodding her head. Soon they heard Amelia's phone ringing.

"Hello, Lil guy. What happened." Amelia asked Alex who called her.

"I wanted to meet you. I am missing you so much." Amelia smiled. She knew today was Sunday so he must be bored without her.

Amelia looked at Harry whose emotionless eyes were stuck on the room's window. She sighed seeing him turning into a completely different man.

Harry from the day woke up started to change into someone Amelia didn't know about. The goofy playful boy who used to only smile laugh and tease people had turned into a serious emotionless and blank man now.

She missed his previous self. Whenever she tries to make a joke or try to be playful the only thing she gets in return is his small smile nothing else.

It seems like her brother has lost something. He has lost himself. His real self.

"Alex why don't you come to your angel. I will ask the driver to drop you here hmm." Alex happily agreed. Harry finally turned towards her in confusion.

He had no idea why she would ask for the kid to come to the hospital. Finally ending the call she ordered the driver to drive Alex to the hospital and he obliged.

"Why are you bringing him here," Harry asked her in confusion making her smile at him.

"He always asked about you. He always wanted to meet his uncle so I decided to why not today I fulfil his wish." Harry sighed shaking his head.

Amelia smiled when a small smile appeared on her brother's lips. She knew how much he loves children. He used to say how much he wants an army for a family.

After some time Alexander reached the hospital and directly went to Amelia hugging her. She introduced them and Alex happily started talking to Harry who also got engrossed in the conversation with the little guy.

Soon night started falling and Harry went to his slumber and Amelia took Alexander home. She wanted to stay with Harry but he refused her saying she needs to rest as well.

Giving up to his continuous nagging she went home with Alexander. Alexander was happy till Harry went to sleep but Amelia did notice how his eyes wasn't full of joy. They had sadness in them.

"Alex look at me." Amelia made him look at him. They were both in the car.

"Alex what happened baby." She instantly brought him in her arms kissing his forehead. His eyes were full of tears. It was almost like he was fighting with them for a long time.

"Tell me, baby." She cooed at him making him hold on to her tightly.

"M-mom. My mom. Tomorrow is her death anniversary." Amelia's breathing got stuck in her throat hearing his cracked tone. He was craving comfort for so long.

"And I know dad wouldn't go to her grave again. He's doing it for the past 3 years." Alexander stuttered out crying in her arms.

"It's fine Alex. Don't worry I will go with you." Alex nodded his head.
