Chapter 76

Merlin called Ervin from outside the tent and after getting nod of approval, he entered. Ervin was laying on the mattress, all covered in thick quilt. Merlin laid down beside hi but didnt touch him. He stared for a few minutes.

"Hi." He said.

"Hey. Did you miss me already?"

"I guess I did." Merlin pause for a few seconds and stared at the neutral face of Ervin, he couldn't make out what he might be thinking. "Hey, um... I wanted to tell you something. I am sorry I delayed this long but I wanted to be more composed while I broke the news." He had Ervin's complete attention now. He was now sitting up and so was Merlin.

"What is it?"

"Jenna and I found a clue about who might have been behind the incident with you. The was some piece of clothing there and we couldn't make out much but it had a logo on it."

"Really?"
