The news just sunk in. A few hours ago, though with a heart ache, the dude's still be more alive. He's clumsy. No doubt about it! And childish too. But he's taken it more serious through his own mishap. Even he has the same face as him, they're completely polar opposite. Early on, he thought that dude was completely wasted on this very earth. That he never bring anything to the team beside jokes and decors. That he lived his life so simpleton. That he could never contribute anything even he set himself towards it. The guy isn't strong, nor do he has special power. Without the brain, that guy is a lost cause. He is a cowardly go lucky guy. But oh boy, he could never be so wrong about the guy.
Tonight, that guy showed the biggest courage he'd ever seen before. He could never do what he did. He could never be the hero he is. Trading your life for the life of others that you've only known for few months? That's absurd! He could only sacrifice if it's his little Jesse, but no more. He's selfish. He'll admit that. If only he's a little more kind to that guy before. If only he treated that guy a little better. If only he could turn back the time. But he can't. He isn't a speedster. Even he is, he shouldn't tamper with the time. He has seen the consequences of Barry's time travelling. It's not good. What he can do now is to provide comfort to the person that guy left behind. Tracy. Brand.
While inhaling a long deep breath, he fix his glass and straighten his shoulders. This is going to take a little while. He can't fathom what's Tracy being through. He would lost his mind and gone berserk if this happen to his precious Jesse. But Tracy is not him. She is a brilliant young woman. She needs to stay strong and focus. The team needs her help. She don't need to run away. Because H.R. did not run away. He stayed. He lived. He died as a hero he dream for.
A/N: This is my first time ever writing after a very long period of hiatus, and also the first writing for The Flash. It's from the POV of Harry Wells (or Earth-2 Harrison Wells). This story hasn't been proofread or anything since I'm lazy. Just would like to share it away, since I thought after yesterday episode, HR needs a little more exposure he deserved. He has indeed grown on me.
