Capítulo 72: A Wonderful Suggestion

After William's declaration of keeping two of the kittens, I stared at him in complete astonishment.

It wasn't just me. Everyone stared at him completely flabbergasted. This was the boy who was terrified of anything that crawled or walked on four legs. He was beyond terrified of furry creatures.

Even though they were kittens, he kept his distance from them and was trembling obviously the entire time. He wanted to run and scream but his pride forced him to stay.

Now that same boy wanted to keep them. It was an entirely ridiculous idea. I didn't know whether to laugh or applaud.

He swallowed hard and spoke, "They can come home with me. T-then you can still see them and you can also bring the k-kittens over for a playdate. You won't have to worry about breaking up a family."

I ran over to him and grabbed his hands. He leaned away from my face that was much too close. My eyes shimmered.
