WHO PASSED AWAY?

Aaron warned Alayah, "Don't drink too much, you'll get sick if you do." She put down her glass, turned to Aaron, and admitted, "Yes, alcohol makes me nauseous". Denzel was looking at them and he tried to understand what is going on between these two.

Rosie came on the stage and started singing the song, Alayah was standing between Aaron and Denzel. The show started, and Aaron noticed that Denzel was looking at Alayah instead of Rosie, he was fully aware that loved Rosie, but the confusing thing was that instead of looking at Rossie, he was looking at Alayah. And even Alayah was looking at him.

A time came when Aaron felt irritated by this, he put a hand on Denzel's shoulder and said, "Denzel I am leaving say hello to Rosie", he said and left. Alayah turned back to see him, but he didn't look back and left the club.

After the show, Rosie came down from the stage and headed towards Denzel who was standing with Alayah, and said, "Tonight, you gave me so much energy."

"Thank you, but your performance was great, meet her she is my sister, Luna", Alayah said.

"Hey, nice to meet you, I am so happy that you came", Rosie said.

"You were fantastic; I enjoyed you, I would love to come here again", Luna said.

"Yes, please contact me whenever you want to come", Rosie said.

Okay, then please provide me with your phone number so that I can reach you", Rosie said and added her number in Rosie's phone.

"Why did Aaron leave?" Rosie asked.

"I don't know", Denzel said.

"Alayah come let's drink something very famous in this club", Denzel said. And they left the table. Only Erik and Luna were sitting there.

"So, you are Alayah's sister, you have a similar appearance", Erik said. Luna became alert, she sat properly, started making that specific doll-like face, looked at Erik's eyes, and said in a seductive voice, "Our personalities are quite opposite, hence we are not alike."

"Do you often go out at night? You look like you do with your sister, I mean", Erik said.

"Well, my sister is a home bird, I enjoy hanging out, I am out of liquor", Luna said and left the table.

Luna saw Denzel, who was talking with Alayah, she came close and tried to listen to what they were talking about.

"Yes, and that particular kebab got a sauce on it, and that is the best thing about it", Alayah said, Luna joined them, she put her arm on Denzel's shoulder, and said, "oh, you guys are going for dinner? I am hungry like a wolf."

To avoid Luna, Denzel withdrew his phone from his pocket and pretended as if he was busy.

"4 missed calls from Aaron", he said while looking at his phone.

"Oh, he called me too, my phone was on silent", Erik said.

"Call him, Aaron is calling at this hour! It might be something serious", Erik said, and Denzel dialed his number, talked to him, and disconnected the call.

"Is everything okay?", Alayah and Erik asked in one tone.

"I don't know, he said leave right now and come, he wants Erik to come too", Denzel said.

"But where?" Erik asked with a confused face.

"He told me to leave and call him on the way", Denzel replied.

"Come on, let us go", Erik said.

"Sorry Alayah I need to go", Denzel said to Alayah.

"It's okay, I hope everything is fine", Alayah said, and Luna held Denzel's arm and said, "Don't worry."

AT THE HOSPITAL:

Denzel and Erik parked the car, and run towards the hospital, soon they saw Aaron who was sitting on the sofa with tears in his eyes.

"What happened?" Denzel asked Walter.

Walter looked at Mrs. George and they didn't answer his question.

"I said what happened?" Denzel shouted.

"The accident… when… Mrs. Lincoln is in surgery but the doctor said she will be fine, Harry is injured but he will be fine too", Walter said.

"My brother? And Della, where are they? I can't see them", Denzel asked.

"Unfortunately, they are no more, we lost them", Walter said.

"What?" Denzel looked at him, "What?" he shouted.

"They died in an accident", Walter said and Denzel smiled, he looked at Aaron and smiled again, and then he attacked Walter, "Don't you dare say this again, I will kill you", Denzel shouted.

Aaron and Erik tried to calm him, they held him by the arm and asked him to sit on the sofa, Denzel looked calm but again he ran towards Walter, grabbed his neck, and shouted, "do not talk bullshit just tell me where is my brother!"

Aaron and Erik tried to stop him. Denzel looked at Aaron and then at Erik and sat on the floor.

"Where is Harry?" Erik asked Walter.

"We are waiting for the doctor to speak; Harry's seatbelt was fastened and he was unconscious when he arrived", Walter said. The doctors arrived.

"The boy is fine, he has only got damage on his legs", the doctor said. Meanwhile, Denzel was consistently moving his hand on his head, and hair as if he was trying to understand whatever happened.

"Damage?" Aaron asked.

"Do not be worried; he will recover with a brief course of physiotherapy. However, because of the trauma he has had, he may need some time to recover" the doctor replied.

AT ALAYAH'S HOUSE (MORNING):

Alayah was searching for a job while taking breakfast, Luna was sitting nearby, she was scrolling the news, "Alayah who are these people standing with Aaron?" Luna asked and showed his phone is Alayah.

"Oh, she is Harry's mother and that is Harry's father", Alayah replied and started eating the omelet.

"Sister, you need to read this", Luna said and Alayah read the news, she was shocked.

AT THE FUNERAL:

Alayah entered, and she gave her condolence to everyone sitting there, she came close to Denzel held his hand, and said, "my condolence", Aaron looked at her hands. "How is Harry?" Alayah asked Denzel.

"Okay, if you need anything, I will arrive immediately", Alayah said.

"Thanks", Denzel said. Alayah looked at Aaron and said, "My condolence." She walked and stood with Walter. Mr. and Mrs. Grendel arrived.

Aaron saw them from distance and left that place. Mrs. Grendel came near Denzel, and took off her glasses, "sister", Denzel said and hugged her and they both started crying.

"Are they relative?" Alayah asked Walter.

"She is the sister of Mr. Henry and Mr. Denzel, Aaron's father, and Denzel's father established a company, and Mr. Grendel used to work there, he was not sincere with the company so he was fired, this lady said after some years that she is going to marry Mr. Grendel, the family tried to stop her and she didn't agree, her father dismissed her, and after that Mr. Grendel established his own company", Walter said.

15 DAYS LATER (AT THE HOSPITAL):

"Harry it's been 2 weeks, and you didn't eat properly," Mrs. George said, she was holding a spoon full of soup and she was trying to feed Harry.

"Leave me alone", Harry shouted.

"Just a spoonful", Mrs. George said.

"No, no I don't want anything", Harry shouted again.

The doctor arrived and asked, "Nurse, what is the situation?"

"The boy is not eating anything", Nurse replied.

"Ok don't force him, he will eat when he is hungry, okay Harry?" the doctor asked.

"I will not eat, I will never eat", Harry said with an angry face.

Aaron and Denzel were sitting outside they were listening to the shouting Harry.

The doctor came, and Aaron asked, "Why he is mad at everything and everyone?"

"Mr. Aaron, he will get well soon, it is not easy for him to accept", the doctor said.

"He yells and screams a lot but he did not cry", Aaron said to the doctor.

"Even though I'm crying, nothing is making the pain go away. So, what could he do?" Denzel asked Aaron.

"He has experienced a huge loss, you can take him home as soon as possible, but before that, I just need to prepare a final report", the doctor said.

"Home? A home without a mother and father? Have you gone out of your mind? How could you call that place home?" Denzel shouted at the doctor.

"I will take Harry with me, until Mrs. Lincoln gets better, after that he will live at his grandma's house", Aaron said to Denzel and tried to calm him.

"You are right, sorry doctor", Denzel said and left them.

"Mr. Aaron, it is Denzel's way of dealing with the loss, it is fine do not worry", the doctor said.

After a while Mrs. Grendel came to the hospital, she went into Harry's room but he was sleeping, she looked at sleepy Harry kissed his forehead, and went outside the room, where Denzel was waiting for her.

"I saw him when he was born", Mrs. Grendel said while weeping.

"You should see him talking", Denzel said and tried to smile. Aaron was watching them from a distance.

"I came here for Harry, he is sleeping I should leave", Mrs. Grendel said and left. Aaron walked towards Denzel. "Brother, I'm going to lose my mind and I am leaving", Denzel said to Aaron.

"You can leave, the hospital is discharging Harry and my mother", Aaron said.

"Okay I will come to see them at your place", Denzel said and he was about you leave when Aaron called him.

"Denzel, when your father was on his death bed, he held Henry's and my hand and asked us to take care of you, unfortunately, your brother is no more, but you have got me, I have both Harry and you in my care. I promise I will always be there with you", Aaron said.

"I am messed up, I need time, I will get better as soon as possible, I will be right beside you", Denzel said and Aaron hugged him.
