“Are we going halready?” Galen asked.
Alexander shook his head. “No, not yet. I'll stay here with you.”
Galen said nothing else and pursued his lips. As a child, his emotions were written clearly in his gaze.
Seeing Galen troubled, especially when he was still young, hurt Alexander. He tucked Galen under the blanket and asked, “What's
wrong?”
“Grandpa is sick.” Galen looked like he was about to cry.
Although Galen constantly bickered with Dominic, making the older man go crazy sometimes, the two had a close relationship.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDominic adored Galen very much, and Galen had treated Dominic as his family already.
Alexander was moved and said softly, “Yeah.”
“Is he going to die?” Galen asked again, his voice trembling.
Galen seemed to have been waiting to ask this question for a long time. It was just that he was too young and did not know how to
bring the matter up. He was also afraid of the topic.
Alexander did not answer right away. Instead, he briefly thought before asking, “Do you know what death is?”
‘He's so young, but does he already know what life and death are?’
“If someone is dead, it means they've gone somewhere far away, and we can’t see them anymore. | saw it on TV before.” Galen
tried to express his opinions with the limited vocabulary he had.
Still, he knew nothing much about death except that he could never see Dominic forever. Forever was a strong word that could
shatter a child's heart.
At this point, tears were already trickling down Galen's cheeks. He could not hold his emotions in anymore.
It hurt Alexander to see this. He wiped Galen's tears from his cheeks and said thoughtfully, “Everyone will die one day. Sjust
die earlier than others. Grandpa will die too, but not now.”
“When is it then?”

Alexander's words were profound to Galen. The kid stopped crying for a moment and stared at his father curiously.
“I'm not sure either, perhaps in a few more decades. But it won't be now. We'll treat Grandpa's illness, and he will treat it himself
too. He's going to recover soon,” Alexander explained.
It was unnecessary to lie and tell Galen that Dominic would not die, but comfort should also be in place for him. Alexander did not
know how to comfort other people well, especially regarding kids. He had always been a direct person and never sugarcoated
things.
Faced with Galen's innocent gaze, it was too cruel to tell him that everyone would die, and what Alexander said was already the
best he could do. However, he managed to confuse Galen with his words.
The kid momentarily forgot about his sadness as he tried hard to understand his father’s words, thinking, ‘What does daddy mean?
Does he mean Grandpa will die, or won't he? It sounds like he won't, right?’
