"I have a private plane organized for you two, just move as quickly as possible to Chicago and keep your children safe!" said Harry on the phone talking to Tom, explaining to him how his life could be in danger after all that happened, "Elicia is tense Harry, and she told me to tell you that she wants to cut all ties with you," said Tom, Harry paused for a while and then continued, "Tom, even I didn't want this Oli, even in his last breathe, I had him to my heart and vowed, tell Elicia I still love her despite all this, and you too take care," said Harry. No goons, No friends, Harry dressed up and went all by himself just with one gun to have his enemies dead.
The Andersen family, with Travis, Jake, Quincy, and their son were all at the local holy church to get their son Baptized. The father blessed their son and the entire Andersen family after which they all walked out of the church. They weren't carrying their guns or any other weapons when Harry without a pause started to reach them. Travis who was holding the child passed him to Quincy who held her son and moved forth to have a seat in the car. Father and son gave each other a hug for it was the first time the family was together at the church when Harry took the advantage and shot his bullet. The sound of the fire made every person go chaotic at that place and people panicked when Jake fell on the ground. Harry didn't stop! and he made a further move to reach the two Andersens when he shot another bullet at Jake at his heart. "Jake!" Travis shouted seeing his son die just outside the holy place. Quincy saw this all and screamed rushing towards her dead husband. Travis couldn't walk properly but still tried to walk out of the devil's sight. He tried to reach inside the church when Harry shot a bullet on his leg and made him fall on the stairs. Travis gave a scream when Harry dragged the old man down from the stairs near his son's corpse. Travis had all the expressions blown out of his face and his spine had chills, when Harry kneeled down and whispered, "You were his dog!" and shot the old man three times on his head.
The gun fell off Harry's hand when he kneeled down and busted out crying. These tears contained all that pain that he had gone through, all those tragedies he had been through, and all that grudge that he carried in his heart all way long.
Don Harry flew off to Brooklyn the next morning while his lawyer would advocate the murder of Don Andersen and his son. A knock at his door welcomed Quincy Becca and her son to Brooklyn and Harry let the two in. Quincy was broken for she had nowhere to go, no place to sleep, and had a soul glued to her heart. Harry's heart melted at the poor girl when he saw himself in her son. "My mother suffered, because of which I suffered, I saw that hell, and I would never want anyone else goes through it," Harry said breaking up into tears when Quincy broke up into a flood of tears too. "You are here because of me, all this rivalry, all this anger, makes women like you suffer all the time," said Harry when Quincy closed her eyes to hide the pain hidden in them, "Will you be my wife Quincy?" Harry said and Quincy broke into tears again when both hugged each other. A week later the two married happily and decided to live a lovely life forever. Quincy was finally at the moment where she can be happy to finally have the man of her dreams. Their son was named Harvey Hagen and Harry accepted him from the core of his fatherly heart.
Two years passed, and Harry led a peaceful life with his wife and son who was now two years old and would play with Harry all the time, and while playing with him, Harry would regain the giggle of his childhood and become a kid again. Quincy would be all content seeing the two happy. Harry expressed to Quincy his regret of never being able to cooperate with his sister who would never like to see him again when Quincy insisted he go and try meeting her for it had been two years since they had been apart. Harry booked a flight to Chicago went straight to Tom and Elicia's house along with his soulmate and his son.
Tom opened the door to be surprised to see his friend with his family when he greeted them all in the house. "Finally you made a family dork!" said Tom following laughter of pride, "Well, we made it! where is Elicia? How are the kids?" Harry asked. "Umm...Elicia had gone to her friend's place for a week as her friend had no one else to babysit their children, so she told me to take care of the kids while she goes to her friend's house," said Tom, "Did she go this morning?" Harry asked, "Yes, she left in the morning," said Tom. "So, she fled away hearing about her brother's visit huh!" Harry said in a shivering tone with a painting smile on his face, "No, No she just had gone, Let's leave the kids to play alone Shall we!" said Tom eagerly waiting to change the topic when Harry and Quincy entered in. Harry's heart broke learning that he would not be able to see the most important person of his life at the very moment he actually wanted to see her. After spending hours of chattering the family went for dinner. "Don't bother to prepare for us to stay at night, we would be leaving straight away after dinner, for our flight is early!" said Harry looking at Quincy. "Is something wrong mate? We can arrange for you two, you don't need to leave, it's just been a few hours since you people came in here!" said Tom in a rushing tone, "No, we won't bother you, I have some work left in Brooklyn so, I have to leave, it was a great day!" said Harry following a peal of laughter, and Quincy smiled too. "Harvey! come to the table enough playing now! all kids come to the table!" Harry told all the kids to come to join them with the dinner when the kids rushed and sat on their chairs, as the kids sat, Harry bent a bit lower and said in deep pitch, "A family which doesn't eat together, is not a real family! remember that kids!" said Harry before he smiled.
Harry, Quincy, and Harvey left the house and headed towards the airport and Harry gave Tom a final hug. Such a disappointment to not have his sister at the home, bad luck. Harry decided to walk half the way to buy some gifts for his son from Chicago when the family entered a market filled with crowds and decorations all around. Quincy and Harvey would do the shopping while Harry strolled around the place to have a look at the beautiful market and have a night walk too. He just walking casually when his sight fell on Elicia coming out of a bakery shop, "Elicia!" Harry called out his sister who looked back to catch sight of his brother but kept on walking forth acting like she saw or heard nothing. Harry kept on calling his sister and she kept on walking forth making her walk a bit faster, when Harry finally reached her, "Elicia! forgive me for everything my little sister," Harry said with watery eyes and a red nose trying to avoid a flood of tears which was waiting to arrive, "I have to go home now, just leave," said Elicia, "I know you are upset with, I came here just for your apology, I have a family now, a wife and your nephew! wouldn't you like to meet them?" said Harry, "Did you gain mom and dad back after killing those people? Did you get your friend back? No, you lost! you are a lost player Don Harry Hagen, you lost everything you had close to your heart," said Elicia breaking down in anger, "I know, and I can't forgive myself, but give me one chance, just for the last time, I want to hug the things I loved the most," said with a hopeful and regretful face. Elicia took a sigh and finally broke her silence, "I will call you, go home now," saying these words she walked away while Harry looked hopeful and happy believing that he finally won and that his sister would now finally talk with him. Harry had tears in his eyes but at the same time had a smile too.
The family went back to Brooklyn, while Harry would have a dream while sleeping in his flight. The dream had Harry, Tom, and Oliver back in their youth when they were all seventeen and they would wreak havoc on everything around them just to have some fun and would go on trips in a local train. Harry would mess up with his little sister all the time and then rush with his friends to the station with little Elicia chasing them and shouting the new bad words she had just learned at them. The three friends then would jump into the train and would whistle up in the joy of their victory in escaping Elicia and Elicia would stand there with a frown on her childish face seeing her brother waving a hand at her and shouting, "I would never come back!" and then laugh.
Sitting in his study, in his earned house at Brooklyn Don Harry Hagen waited all evening for one call from his sister. He sat on his chair, determined, and started at the telephone just in hope for it to ring any moment from now. The setting sun's orange flare fell on Harry's head from the window which was shining bright. Don Harry Hagen was sitting stiff and waited for hours for the bell that might never ring. Staring at his last hope of fulfillment, Harry finally shredded a tear while no one was watching him in the room.
Why doesn't that last breath of hope die? Maybe because...Big boys don't cry.
