How do I continue to use dialogue or output box as a prompt after my script has ran in sublime text 3

When I run a program in node with sublime 3, (command + b) the dialogue prints the output, I was wondering if there was a way that I could continue to use the dialogue as a regular node prompt after the script had executed.

Here is my Node build file for anyone that is wondering

{
    "cmd": ["node", "debug", "$file"],
    "selector": "source.js"
}
