"Harry "
What?
After hearing the name my heart literally missed a beat.
"Harry? How can he do such a thing?"
I asked.
Harry is our cousin. Yup. He lives down the street. He is the same age as Alex. I was furious. Harry was always the bad boy. Teasing Alex was his job. And he was my aunt's son. Pulling legs is okay, but what he did was unacceptable.
"Tell me what happened. Okay?" I asked rubbing his back as he had sunk his head in the crook of my neck and sobbed gently.
"H he was with her the whole day, and today H Haily said that she could not be my girlfriend anymore."
"Listen, love, don't waste your tears on her. She is not worth them. Okay? She will realise her mistake and will apologise soon. Don't you worry." I said kissing the top of his head.
He straightened himself and rubbed his face with his palms. He gave me a smile and stood up. I stood up too. He hugged me.
"Thank you."
"I am always there for you. Okay? Now go down, have a shower and freshen up. And, don't come to the terrace and lock the door again."
"Yup."
He started walking towards the door but turned around and asked,"you are not comingc down?" "Nope. I am spending some time in the garden.
I sat on one of the chairs and thought about how my 13 year old brother cried for a girl. Will I have someone in my life who will cry for me? Alex really cared for Haily. I have seen that with my own eyes. I wonder. When will I get my knight in shining armour.......
