Harry's P.O.V.
I groaned as I ran my fingers through my crazy hair. Another night without any sleep. Mya had another
one of her spells but this time it was worse. It took me about an hour and a half to finally get her to lay
down quietly and sleep. My body just wouldn't let me sleep after that.
I groaned rubbing my red eyes. My dark circles were complete visible and they were even darker today.
I slowly sipped my coffee and scowled at the taste. I hate coffee. I'm just drinking it so that I won't fall
asleep when I watch the girls.
They were currently upstairs sleeping quietly. Knock knock knock. I groaned rubbing my temples. I
placed my coffee on the table and looked at the clock. 6:36 a.m. Who knocks on the door this early??
"Who the hell is it?!?"
Michael's P.O.V.
My father allowed me to leave Detroit a couple hours early. I was happy to hear that because I've been
filled up to my ears with meetings and paper work. I couldn't even call home to talk to my little princess.
I hope she held up ok.....
The uber pulled up in front of the house and stopped the car. He stepped out of the car and jogged
over to opened my side door. "Here you go sir." Dan said handing me my suit case. "Thank you Dan." I
handed him a $150 dollar tip. His eyes widened. "Sir I-I can't possibly take that." I chuckled, "Of course
you can. Never say no to a tip." He slowly reached his hand out to grab the money. "Thank you so
much Mr. Hoffstetter." I smiled "it's my pleasure Dan go get yourself something nice." He nodded. "Yes
sir."
I approached the front door and sighed. I'm sorta nervous. I mean, what if Mya is mad at me for not
calling? And what if they don't even care that I'm back?
I pushed my thoughts aside and took a deep breath knocking on the door.
"Who the hell is it?!?"
My eyes widened that can't be Harry. What could've happened when I was gone? I knocked again as
the door opened slowly. I couldn't believe the sight in front of me. There stood an extremely worn out
Harry. His skin was pale and his eyes had giant dark circles under them. It looked like he hasn't slept in
days. I frowned he still hasn't looked up yet. "Harry.....?" When he heard my voice his eyes widened
and he gasped.
"MICHAEL!!!!" he yelled happily jumping into my arms. I chuckled hugging him back. Sometimes it
doesn't even seem like we're the same age. "Hey Harry." He quickly pulled away blushing slightly.
"Sorry sir." I smiled "its quite alright Harry." He stepped aside so that I could come in.

Harry and I were currently sitting on the couch watching Fast and Furious catching up on things. The
girls were sleeping and it was only about seven o'clock.
"Harry you look exhausted are you ok?" He quickly nodded. "Yea yea I'm totally fine." I creased my
eyebrows and frowned. "Did you sleep at all when I was gone?" He stayed quiet for a second and then
shook his head.
"Why not?"
Before he could answer we heard footsteps coming down the stairs. "Bugga....?" Harry and I looked
simultaneously looked over to see a sleepy Giselle walking our way. When she saw me her eyes
widened.
"MR. HOFFSTETTER!!!"
She ran as fast as her little feet could carry her and jumped into my lap. I laughed at her excitement.
"Hey hun how are you?" She smiled widely "I'm good but I missed you." I kissed her forehead "aww
honey I missed you too."
She reached her arms towards Harry and whined. Harry smiled taking her from me and placing her on
his lap. He pecked her lips lovingly. "Baby it's only 7:06 what are you doing up?" She frowned and
yawned. "I missed you bugga." He smiled "You can sleep right here ok?" She nodded closing her eyes.
It took her a few minutes to sleep but she finally drifted into dreamland. Once Harry saw that she was
asleep he sighed closing his eyes. I frowned brushing his hair from his eyes. "Why didn't you sleep
Harry?"
He shrugged, "there wasn't any time."
I tilted my head in confusion, "what do you mean there wasn't enough time?" He sighed sadly, "Well I
had to watch Mya." NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
"She gave you problems?"
He didn't answer. "Harry?" He shook his head. "Don't punish her ok? She can't control it."
"Wait Harry wait....what are you talking about?"
I was shocked when I saw tears in his eyes. "I'm talking about the shaking Mr. Hoffstetter. She can't
control the shaking, the chanting, the rocking, the tantrums, any of it. I-I didn't know what to do or how
to help her I was just so tired and I didn't wanna bother you and call you all the time. At first I thought
she was just acting out because she misses you but then when we went to the park she told me
everything. She apologized for being a pain and she said she can't control any of it. Her nose bleeds
also just happen." More tears fell from his eyes as he continued. "She would wake up in the middle of
the night because of the rocking and panic attacks so I stayed up all night for both nights just to watch
her and make sure she was ok.."
