My eyes widened at his statement. After everything I had heard from him lately, this was the last thing I expected to hear, and I confess that I was dumbfounded but also puzzled as to whether he meant his words or not.
I looked at him confused, knitting my eyebrows in wonder.
"I want you to stay, Kira," the captain repeated, confirming that I had heard correctly.
"You want me to stay?!" I asked, even more confused. "And for what reason?" I asked angrily. My voice had raised a few tones without me realizing it because anger had begun to boil inside me, and thousands of thoughts started passing through my mind, and not good ones.
I wondered why he was asking me to stay. Because maybe he wanted me always to be available for him whenever he wanted to throw his hatred for me in my face. For torturing me? Was it a way of revenge for him?
