Grisha's pov
"How are you doing Eren?" I ask my 15-year-old son.
"Fine, I guess... -" he stopped eating his food as he put down his fork.
"-I miss everyone dad... I want to go back to school" he confessed as he looks down at his breakfast."I'm sorry Eren you can't go back, you need to stay here where it is safe for you...we've talked about this. We can't have another incident like last time happen again." I let out as I pick and push my breakfast around.
"I know dad it's just... I miss my friends, the arcade, the movies, school and the beach-" he didn't get to finish.
"I know Eren... But this is what's best." I say looking at him sadly. I know a normal boy his age should be out having fun, exploring and getting himself into trouble. But Eren isn't a normal boy you see.
Eren has this special blood, that is so special that only one other person in the world had something similar. That was about a century ago before Eren was even born and the poor woman took her own life from all the pressure society, medical field and government put on her.
Eren's blood has cells that permanently eliminate cancer mutations in a cancer patient's DNA. But the thing is it only work on lung cancer patients. I've tried to tell everyone this very clearly, but yet no one believes me. It's more like they would try anything if there was remotely any chance of curing cancer.
We first found this out when Eren had to go get his blood checked because of 'something unusual' when he wanted to donate some and then we got a call back from the hospital saying we needed to go back there immediately because it was 'urgent'. So when we got there they explained everything to us. After that we got calls from all over ranging from' please donate sir we need your son's blood' to ' how much money do you want for your son?'.
But what made me go to extremes of isolating Eren was an incident that happened when I drove to pick up Eren from school. That's when I saw him walking up to me, but before he could reach me someone put a cloth over his mouth and force him into a truck. Thank any God out there that I was talking to a neighborhood policeman that was picking up his child when I saw it happen. He called back up and medics so I got Eeren back to me quickly and those men in jail quickly.
But now I can't even let a chance of anything like that happen again. That's why I have to keep Eren in the house under tight home security at all times. He only has limited interaction with people outside. Which is only his nurse, his home tutor , my partner Hanji and myself. The only reason the government is letting me keep him here with me and isolated is if I let a nurse come every 8 weeks. Sometimes those pigs come earlier and I'm afraid it might affect Eren later, but there's nothing I could do about it. To come take blood from him for medical research/ donations that is why we have nurse 'Armin' come every once and a while. Eren seems to get along with him so that's good he also gets along with his tutor Mikasa. She is quite protective of him as well, probably because she is his older cousin. He also gets along with my engineering partner Hanji, even if sometimes she would want to experiment with his blood. But every time she asks I tell her she needs to focus on the project we are almost finished with, instead of my child's bodily fluids.
"I know you only want what's best for me." He says as he finally starts eating his food.
"of course Eren, but now I have to go to work soon," I say as I quickly finish my food.
"But I thought you had Sunday's off," he asked.
"well, I need to work more to be able to pay for all this home security and everything else," I explain as I ruffle his hair.
