Relaxing on his bed, he stared blankly. Staring at his most wonderful partner. Terriermon was sleeping soundly. Curled up like a ball. Henry got up, glanced at his watch and made his way to the kitchen to get some water. It was already midnight and he still had trouble sleeping. He realized his living room lights were switched on. He peeped and saw his parents discussing something seriously.
"Henry's real parents are searching for him. We've got to tell him about his real parents. Mary and Ryan are his real parents. Not us. We have to accept the fact. I just don't know how he's going to take it." Janyuu's voice started to sound frustrated.
Henry stopped dead. His heart pumped harder than ever. He didn't believe that this is happening. That he was actually adopted. His body got so numb that he can't even feel a thing. He made his way back to his room as quiet as possible. He sat on his bed. Recalling what he just heard. " Ryan and Mary " he whispered quietly. " This doesn't make sense. Maybe they're talking about something else. This couldn't be happening. "he tried thinking positively but it was no use. Soon, he closed his eyes and went into a dreamless sleep.
The next morning Henry woke up finding himself in a mess. He got out of his bed and walked his way to the bathroom. "Morning Henry, boy, you look bad "Terriermon told him. Henry smiled at him and continued making his way towards the bathroom. After washing up, he wore his normal clothes. "Henry. Breakfast is ready" he heard his mother called after him. Or rather his step-mother. He shook his head trying not to think negatively.
He made his way to the kitchen. "Morning son" Janyuu called out. Henry looked up and smiled. "I don't have the appetite to eat. I'll just go to school. See ya. "Henry said. Henry pushed his plate and took his school bag. He walked out of the house without saying a word leaving Terriermon in Suzie's arm.
Henry let his mind float. Walking aimlessly towards nowhere. He wasn't going to school. He would go anywhere but not to school and not back home. He decided to sit under a large tree in the park. He recalled what has just been said by his parents last night. Soon, he will know the truth because his father is going to tell him. He spent the rest of the day staring blankly into empty space.
"Have you seen Henry? " Takato asked Jeri, Kenta and Kazu. The others shook their heads. Takato was getting worried. Maybe Henry's sick at home he thought to himself. School ended and Takato decided to visit Henry with the others. They met up with Rika and she decided to come along.
They rang the doorbell and Janyuu opened it. "Hello there kids. Erm, can I help you with something?" He asked. "We're here to visit Henry. He didn't attend school just now .Is he sick? "Takato asked. Janyuu's eyes got bigger. "What? He didn't attend school? . He already gone out early this morning." Janyuu said looking angry but also worried. Everyone got shocked. " He skipped school?" Rika asked. " Don't worry, we'll try and find him " Takato told Janyuu.
