Chapter 3/5
Harrison is back in his bed again. Why did he let the grief keep him away from his daughter. While he let the guilt out, he hears someone...chewing?
*Crunch*
?: you just gonna hide in there or what?
He opens the curtains and sees a Hispanic teen wearing all black with a blue vest. He was eating a apple.
?: Hello Harry. *crunch*
Harrison: Luis?
Luis: nope I just look like him. I'm the ghost of Christmas present.
Harrison sees a long table full of food in front of his bed. He sees turkey and ham. Fruits and vegetables. Sweets and desserts.
Harrison: where did all this food come from?
Luis: that Harry, is from the heart. the food of generosity and kindness. You haven't shown any forms of it.
Harrison: why should I be generous! No one has ever done anything generous for me!
Luis: and why would they want to? You never shown them any reason. *crunch* Yet, they are some who still do it. Even to people like you.
Harrison: but then where does this belong?
Luis holds out his hand. Harrison knew what gonna happened. He reaches for the hand.
Harrison: maybe just slow down a bit, I don't want- ARRRGGGGHH!
Speeding through the city once more, Harrison looks around while screaming. They finally stopped. They're on a fire escape.
Harrison: where did you bring me? I don't know this place.
Luis: not everything about you Harry. This is the home of your employee Barry Allen.
Harrison: Allen? Why are we here?
Luis: you asked where the generosity came from. This is the home that has the most of it.
Harrison sees Barry walking in the door. Who's carrying a grocery bag, he was greeted by his wife.
Iris: Hey bear.
Barry: Hello honey! Where are the kids?
At that moment a boy and a girl who looked like twins started running towards him. They hugged Barry.
Barry: Don! Dawn! Did you kids do anything fun?
Don: I helped papa joe with his car.
Barry: really?
Don: I helped him put on a new wheel.
Dawn: I drew this today.
It was a drawing of the family.
Dawn: that's you and mom, and that me, Nora and Don.
Barry's smile went down a little. Looking at Nora in drawing. Barry hugs the kids one more time. He goes down a hallway to the room at the end. Luis walks through the window.
Harrison: what are you doing?! This is breaking in someone house!
Luis: I'm not stupid! They can't see us. Come on Harry, you have to see this.
Harrison walks through the window like... well like a ghost. As they're walking towards the room. He the other rooms, they only had beds and 1 or 2 toys.
Harrison and Luis go right through the door. They see a little girl sleeping on a bed with Barry sitting on the side.
Barry: Nora, sweetie?
Nora wakes from her sleep. She sees Barry and instantly hugs him.
Nora: daddy, you're home! Did you the toys to Cisco?
Barry: yes I did. But how are you feeling today?
Nora: a bit better...
Barry: are you hungry?
Nora: yes.
Barry: want me to carry you?
Nora: No I got it.
She tries to walks but starts to feel dizzy. Barry picks her up and walks to the dinner table.
Harrison: tell me, why do they have so little things?
Luis: you don't pay him enough to support his family. His wife works too, they make enough to do it.
Harrison: but what about the little girl Nora?
Luis: she...has not been doing great... they been taken her to the doctor to treat it. That's where most of the money goes. But she still sick, Now they're in medical debt.
They see Iris walking to the table with a meatloaf that wasn't much, but enough. Nora is about to eat it, when noticed that everyone was eating but Barry. Nora cuts her meatloaf in half and slide it to him.
Barry: no Nora, that's yours.
Nora: but you need food too. Please?
Barry couldn't say no to her puppy eyes. He gradually took the slice.
Iris give Nora kisses on the head.
Iris: you're just an angel, Nora.
Nora: thanks mom.
Harrison feels guilt. The way this family struggles, but can still see happiness through all of it.
Luis: if things keep going this way... there will be one empty chair where Nora sits.
Harrison heart stopped when he said that.
Harrison: wha-wha-what?! What do you mean?! Luis?!
The spirit was not there anymore. He looks back at the table, which was now empty.
Harrison: where did they go?
The lights go off in the apartment. Everything was dead silent.
Suddenly blue lightning was surrounded him...
