David made his way to a nearby payphone and dialled the number into it, waiting for the dialling tone. He wasn't going to contact him at first, Simons betrayal had been stomach turning to say the least but he was still his brother and Pat always said that she had brought them up to watch out for each other. At last Simon answered
"Hello." He said, David sighed heavily before answering, "Simon, I got your note, what do you want?" Simon was happy to hear from his brother again. "I want to say sorry properly, David for all the trouble I've caused." He said apologetically, David raised his voice, "How can you be sorry? After what you've done to me and the family, you nearly got us in fucking trouble Simon and all you can say is sorry?!" He yelled down the phone, he was about to put the phone down when Simon quickly said, "David I want to make it up to you, please come down to Walford E20, I've been there for three weeks so far." David took all this in, writing it down on a post stick note. "Will you come?", He asked and David sighed, "Yeah and you better hAve a good apology." Before putting the phone down. He gathered all his files together and made his way home.
Once home, he could hear Sonya and Carol sighing and coeing and went to see what it was about. When he walked in, Carol had Harry on her lap and he was dressed in a white suit with a matching hat and boots, David sighed at him, he looked so adorable. "David, look at Harry. This is his christening outfit, Bianca bought it." Carol remarked and David knealt down, stroking Harry's cheek and grinning as he saw Harry smile at him. "You look very handsome Harry, everyone will want to eat you up." He cooed and starting making funny noises, "He's trying to talk." Sonya said, Carol put Harry on the floor and he crawled over to David who picked him up, "I'll go and take his suit off and he can have a nap." David said, kissing Carols cheek and taking Harry upstairs. Once he had changed him into his blue all in one he put him into his crib, Harry gripped the handle bars and was looking at David with his dark blue eyes, David smiled and kissed his head, "You've brought so much joy to my life, you've made me realise I can be a better father. I love you so much as does mummy." He whispered before leaving the room.
Later that night, David walked along to Walford E20 where Simon lived, it was a quiet deserted place and David knew that his dad used to live there years ago. As he knocked on the door, he waited for Simon to answer, he saw graffiti on the wall which said, Pete Beale 1968, the year that Pete had moved in with his new wife Kathy. He smiled to himself and the door opened, "Hello Simon." David said casually, Simon didn't look at him, "Come in mate." He said quietly and David followed him, eager to know what his excuse was for betraying him the way he did.
