Count Elliot's Grief

After Eli found out that her mom is already dead, he had been so miserable, I know and see it. I know he is facing stages of grief. My face turned blue when I saw him in the room, shaking his head.

"No, it can't be,she can't be dead." He stated as he shook his head

"No, it can't be,she can't be dead." he said again.

He said those words — no — he chanted and I can't stop my eyes from shredding tears, seeing Eli so vulnerable will be the death of me, but I can't be like this, I can't be this weak, I have to be strong for the both of us. I have to prove that I can be strong for the both of us, so I slowly walk to him who is sitting on top of the bed embracing his pillow.

I slowly locked my arms around his waist and rest my head on his shoulder, somewhere his breathing changed a bit, that means he is calming down.

He then took a deep breathe brefore speakings, "She can't be dead right? Maybe Alfredo just tricked us" He said as tears fall from his eyes.
