Training with Eric

Merlin was having a bad dream.

Eric touched the boy’s body to calm him down then pulled the little one into his embrace.

"It's alright, Merlin. Your grandpa is here now,” said Eric softly. His eyes were full of love.

Finally, Merlin's panic stopped.

The little boy's eyelids began to move rapidly then he was breathing calmly again.

"Eric..." said Merlin in a weak voice. His body was soaked with sweat. His physical strength was poor and his body felt really exhausted.

The old man uncontrollably shed tears. He was really happy; his heart was filled with joy.

"You are finally awake," said Eric softly.

Merlin's body was wrapped in the old man’s embrace.

"Ah...wait, you're making me uncomfortable." Eric's hug made Merlin's face look like he had just swallowed a bitter pill.

Hearing that, Eric felt nervous so he immediately loosened his embrace.

"Sorry. I was so happy that I forgot to compose myself. My little grandson, how are you? Do you feel sick anywhere?”
