Chapter 16


    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 toy


    down quietly and sleep. My body just wouldn''t let me sleep after that.


    I groaned rubbing my red eyes. My dark circles wereplete 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


    ced 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 dor 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 coulde 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 footstepsing 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 myp. Iughed 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 cing her on


    hisp. 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 dreand. 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."


    "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.."
