His eyebrows rose and he tried to find her eyes when she asked if she could come along. Of course, it wasn't something was going to deny her, but it was a request he never thought she would make - nor did it consider it something she should ever have to formally ask.
"Of course," he replied with little hesitation. Since she had spent some time roaming the streets, there were certain places that needed no introduction. Already he was starting to make plans of their itinerary for tomorrow.
"I can show you around the less-travelled parts of this city," he offered. If he was completely honest he was still half-expecting to wake up somewhere else, but it was easy in a stable place like this to give in to the temptation of expecting every day to be the same. His uncertainty with the future stemmed from how he ended up here, first of all, and then the island, but at the same time there was unacknowledged hope that he might see familiar faces here - other familiar faces that brought him small measures of comfort, not ghosts from his past coming here to haunt him.
He wasn't waiting for the life he didn't deserve to come to him, but he felt he needed to make preparations nonetheless if someone unexpected did show up at his doorstep if he were to make any concrete plans for the rest of his life to be lived out in this foreign city.
