(commentary) In this quote elizer talks about how him being by his dad will let him"escape" the pain he is in.He pretty much expalins that not being with his dad will completley ruin his time at the camp, as if that already hasnt happned.Being seperated from his dad will " set the trigger" because he was alreayd sepereated from his mom and sister, so now his only loved one he has is his father.  So he denies any part of being spereate from him at all times, not letting anything worse happen for him.

The old man again whispered something , let out a rattle, and diedamid the genereal indifference. His son searched him, took the bread and began to devour it.. others joined in.When  they all withdrew, next to me were two corpse, side by side, the father and the son."
