They fell silent again for a few seconds. All Bella could hear was her son's quiet sobs, which made her tears start to wet her cheeks again.
After a long silence, Dax said, "Mom, I feel sad now because I only knew my Grandpa for a short time. And now...he will leave me again. Forever..."
Bella looked at her son; when she saw his tears wetting his cheeks, she smiled at him, saying, "Even if he has left us forever, he will always be with you, with us. Grandpa will always be in our hearts. As long as you remember and keep praying for him."
Dax nodded.
"I will pray for Grandpa and remember him forever so he will stay here forever," he said while putting his hand on his chest.
"Good, boy. You did well, my son..." Bella felt proud of him. He was handling this better than she was. "Alright, let's stop crying. Grandpa would be sad if he saw us cry, right?"
"Hmm, let's do that," Dax said, wiping away his last tears.
