Revenge After Death

Because they wouldn't understand.

Steven's grip on my hand slowly tightened, and his eyes welled up slightly with tears. He looked like he'd been wronged but was trying his best to suppress his emotions.

"Why should we be upset... They're not going to die," he said.

"They're only sad because they're stupid," he mumbled.

Michael furrowed his brows and turned to look at Steven.

Zion's gaze also violently snapped in our direction.

He tugged on Steven's wrist nervously and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Joel... won't die. He has his own ideas. He just wants to test out his theory." Steven pulled his hand back.

Under everyone's gaze, he looked at me nervously. "Let's go, Stephie. I want to go home."

He didn't want to explain, and he couldn't be bothered to explain either.

Our mere existence felt alien.

Deep down, Steven understood that Rachel and Joel might still be alive. However, he couldn't explain as they weren't on the same level of understanding. Even if he did explain... they might not even believe him.

They would only understand once we got out of here and saw them alive before us.

"Rachel won't die?" Zion asked nervously. "Explain yourself, Steve."

"If she's innocent, then she won't die." Steven looked at him. "Are you confident that she is?"
