The importance of a united family front was finally revealed today. When the father and son couldn't agree a grandfather could step in and solve the problem. Grandpa Lin took him to the beachfront right past the garden and the two of them walked along the beach silently.
As the breeze swept past the old man inhaled deeply before exhaling with his eyes closed.
"Do you feel that? That cool breeze. It has special calming effects. You should try it," he said and Yi Chen glanced at his grandfather with a face that seemed to say 'its never going to work'.
Grandpa Lin placed his hand on his shoulder and squeezed gently as though telling him that this wasn't up for negotiation.
Yi Chen closed his eyes and did as told. He focused his mind on the cool breeze touching his skin. The sensation spread to the rest of his body replacing the heat from his rage before with a tranquil silence.
