She wanted to know.

As Harry watched the love of his life drive away he thought his heart would snap in two. She still didn’t fully trust him, and that thought was one that he could barely bear. Slapping his hand to his forehead the second her car turned out of sight, he kept his back to the house and willed himself to pull it together. He ran his hands down his face, surprised when they came away wet with his tears. He felt lower than a snake’s belly and, after the day he’d left her, he didn’t think it was possible to feel any worse. The light had gone out of his Annie, and he was the reason.

Pulling himself together, he turned back to the house. It was time to get to know his son and prove to his mother that he was still the man she’d once adored. He knew it would be a battle, but Harrison Carter was ready to stand and fight with everything he had.

‘Hey,’ he called when he walked back into the house. Aidan was playing a board game with Abe, rolling the dice as if his little life depended on it. Abe looked at him expectantly, and Harry shook his head. Abe scowled, his shoulders sagging.

‘Stubborn,’ he said to no one in particular. Harry’s mouth twitched.

‘Mum says I’m stubborn too.’ Aidan was looking straight at Harry now, and Abe stood up from his seat.

‘I’ll put the kettle on. I bought extra marshmallows for the hot chocolate too.’

‘Did she now?’ Harry went to sit on the couch next to his son, taking the opportunity to continue the conversation.

‘Yep. Are you really stubborn too?’

Grinning, Harry nodded, taking in every little detail of the child in front of him. ‘I’ve been told that before, so yes, I’m stubborn.’

Aidan grinned. ‘I knew it. Want to play?’

He offered Harry the dice, and he took them gratefully. ‘There’s nothing I’d like better.’
