A day later, over the weekend, Eric slowly woke himself. Once he woke up and got out of bed, he heard a knock on his door.
"Come in!",he shouted out loud.
The door opened, it turned out to be Liane. She stepped inside the bedroom. He flopped back on the bed and she sat on the corner of the bed with him. They looked at each other. Liane let out a sigh
"Are you okay?",she asked him directly.
Eric looked back down at the ground and sighed. Eric looked back at Liane, and sighed again.
"It's nothing Mom. Yesterday was weird." ,admitted Eric.
Liane placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I know. I heard what happened.",said Liane.
Eric's eyes widened in shock.
"You heard!? ,exclaimed Eric.
He couldn't believe she knew.
Liane nodded in response to what he just said.
,"Yes, I heard. That is why I am letting you stay home for a few days.",she said.
She pulled him into a hug. Eric didn't know what to say as he felt his mothers embrace. All he did, as a way to responding to her and what she had said to him, was to hug her back.
