We Are A Family After All

Erik looked at his grandfather and father.  He conveyed with his eyes that something cannot be discussed.  While the Lopezes are close friends and business partners of the Lees, they were still outsiders.

"Thank you Grandpa Vic for taking your time to visit me,"  Erik said politely.

"Why are you thanking me?  We  are a family after all."  He turned to Cassie.  "Cassie prepared a nourishing soup for you.  It is good for the stomach.  Eat it while it is hot."

Cassie understood her grandpa's hints.  She opened the thermo jug that contained the soup and sat beside Erik.  She started feeding him.

"I can eat it myself.  My hands are not injured and besides I am not a child and there are so many people around."  Erik spoke in a low voice so as not to embarrass Cassie.  Cassie handed him the spoon and he started scooping the soup with the spoon.
