Fear pt.7

Hello, hope you are having a good day.

Merlin opened his eyes and looked around.

"Hey, looks like someone is awake." Mithian said.

"What happened? Why do I feel so horrible?" Merlin moaned.

"You were stabbed. Try to sleep."

"Do I have to?"

"Yes, you do. You're weak. Now sleep."

Merlin sighed and went to sleep.

"At least he woke up. Even if it was for a short period of time." Mithian sighed.

"I know. He needs all the rest he can get." Rodor answered.

"I hope he recovers quickly."

So for the next few days, Merlin began to recover. Each day, Merlin was able to move around more. One day, Thomas was checking Merlin.

"So when can I go home?" Merlin wondered.

"In a few days but you will have to be careful. Just get some more rest." Thomas explained.

"Ok. I just need to get home soon. If I don't and Gwen gives birth, they will kill me."

"Because you're family?"

"Yeah. But I love them. This will be their second child. I really want to be there for them. It's hard going from one kid to two kids."

"Get some rest. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Ok."

SO Thomas left. Merlin went to sleep. A few days later, Merlin was up and about. His arm was still bandaged up. Mithian came in. Merlin was trying to pour himself a cup of water. Mithian smiled as Merlin failed.

"Here, let me." Mithian volunteered. Mithian poured Merlin a cup of water. When she was done, she gave the cup of water to Merlin.

"Thanks." Merlin thanked.

"Your welcome. How do you feel?"

"Much better. I'll be going home tomorrow. I know that I'm going to be trampled on top of. My kids are wild but I love them and miss them so much."

Mithian and Merlin talked. The next day Merlin left with an escort of 20 men. They had gotten to the border when they were attacked.
