The Strongest Creature in Highschool (Baki x DON'T TOY WITH ME, MISS NAGATORO)

Ch-14: Thank You

I'm back with the milk.

Killian was laying in his bed as he was bandaged up after leaving the hospital. He could still move fine, and could still eat his food, though it was bit of a challenge for him to do so, but he decided to eat liquid food before he could go back to eating solid foods. He still thinks about moment between him and Yujiro as he remembers the power behind that slap as he describes it:

Killian: 'I don't know how many people around who's still alive that could describe getting hit by him. It's like when he hits you, there's no pain at first. He hits you so hard that you actually felt like everything just left your body. But before I fell unconscious, the pain kicked in... It was at that moment I realized that it was no man that knocked me out... but a monster.'

Just him thinking about that attack made him think that is there something deeper behind strength. Could it be true strength? Or something beyond that? This kind of thinking made Killian interested as he planned on looking into it later on sometime. But then another thought popped up in his head as he also remembered Yujiro saying, "Heh. You really are starting to look like your mother." Which made him raise the question of who his mother is exactly, and how he knows her.

Killian: 'I look like me mother? But how does he know who she is? Unless...'

*Knock, knock, knock*

He heard a knock coming from his front door as he got out of his bed and head towards the door as he looked through the peephole. He sees his friend Sana standing outside the door with a basket in her hand. He opens the door as Sana smile grew on her face from seeing that he's okay.

Sana: You seem well. I'm surprised you've healed up that quick in a matter of days.

Killian: Nice to meet you, too, Sana. I'm guessing that basket is for me.

Sana holds up the basket to his face as it showed a lot of stuff in it. Chocolate, fruit, a couple of cards, flowers, a bag of spicey chips, and a teddy bear.

Killian: Okay... what's this?

Sana: It's supposed to be a gift basket, or a get well soon basket if I may say. Me and some of the others came up with the idea and thought that it'll make you feel a bit better. So... you like it?

Killian: I mean... it looks nice. You even got my favorite chips and fruits in there as well. This is just, uh... new.

Sana: I expected you to say that. So, can I come inside?

Killian welcomed her inside as he closed the door, and Sana placed the basket on the table as she looked around Killian's small but decent room. It was spacious and seemed well kept. His bed, or mattress was in the middle of the room as it was facing the TV, the kitchen was to the left as there was a fridge, stove, microwave, and a few cabinets. To the right leads into the bathroom, which was pretty small also.

Sana: I still can't believe you still live in this small house. I would've thought over the last few years you would've moved into a more decent home, or an apartment.

Killian: It's not that bad. I mean, I finally got a TV, I replaced my mat with an actual mattress, and this place looked clean as ever. I'm making the best out of my humble abode.

Sana: Whatever you say. You wanna come read the cards?

Killian: For what?

Sana: What our fellow classmates wrote for you. Like this one.

Sana handed him one of the cards as he opens it up and reads it.

"Hope you get well soon, Killian! Stay strong man!"
