SAM's P o V

~~~

I am not quite sure what had gotten into Harold's mind for him to think about sending me away just like that as if I am just a cat. But I was glad that he finally got his senses back. Only those who could not think straight would drive their friends away when they needed them the most.

Yesterday was nothing but crazy but we had already sort it out. In fact, we were actually on our way to see our relocation site as I speak.

"It's here, come inside."

Those words manage to cut through my line of thoughts; it was from the owner of the storage room to where we intended to move by the end of the month, hopefully. He gestured for us to follow him and so we did with no question asked and as soon as we enter the place, the first thing that greeted our eyes was the huge space.

    HAROLD's P o V~~~After were done looking for the suitable place where we can moved and relocate in case we got kicked out by the company, I invited Sam for lunch."My treat."I announced, giving her no chance to decline and as expected, she agreed right away. I took her someplace which was not that fancy but also not that sloppy either. Perhaps, I could describe it as so-so.Anyway! As we were in the middle of having our lunch, we could not help but talk about the contract as well as the storage room in general."There is something lacking about the x-axis of that storage room."I insinuated while playing with my fork. Sam, on the other hand seconded me right away."More so

    SAM's P o V~~~I was busy minding my own business, taking a casual of sip on my drink as I had just finish eating when out of nowhere, I felt like there was someone eyeing me. With that feeling of someone trying to bore their eyes into me, I lifted my head to check who it was. But as soon as I did, I found out that it was actually Harold, he was looking back at me in a way as if he had not seen me in a long time."What is wrong?"I asked him but he quickly averted my gaze and gave me a nonchalant reply,"No, it is nothing."TSK. WeirdSilence followed afterward, but it was not in any way awkward between us. Staying together for a considerable amount of time already had made us so comfortable at each other's presence to the

    HAROLD's P o V~~~~"You were scared yesterday because you thought that I would really leave you for good, aren't you?"It only goes without saying that I was caught off guard when I heard those words coming out Sam's lips and my first response to it was to feign ignorance."Wh- What are you talking about?!!!"At that moment, I badly wanted to slap my mouth because when I heard the stutter on my voice, I already knew that I gave myself away. Sam, on the other hand, remained silent. She did not say a thing, but she also did not move her eyes away from me, to which in return made me feel like I needed to explain myself to her. After a short battle inside my head, I finally admitted the truth."Yes."I said with a sigh before adding,"I was scared."I t

But when you walked away from me, my heart suddenly froze."I am not quite sure about myself either but when those words registered on my ears, I felt so elated. It was that kind of ecstasy where you would start hearing voices of angels singing in the chorus just for you; if you get me.Anyway! I also have no idea how long I have been making a fool out of my own by allowing myself to be seen by Harold smiling upon his words. But when he started questioning me about the expression that I am sporting on my face at that moment, I quickly changed it to a straight one."Why are you smiling like that?"I heard him asked me with a hint of laugher on his voice and so I deliberately wore a blank expression as I asked him back.

    Author's P o V~~~"No matter what you say to me or do, I will be back. Tomorrow, the day after that. I will come back to see you every day."Shantal tossed around her queen-sized bed as se could hardly find the right spot for her to fall asleep. At the same time, it was as if a psychedelic was ringing inside her head; repeating Alex's words like a broke record. Not long after that, the girl found herself staring at her ceiling with nothing specific in mind and it went on like that for good half an hour before she finally made up her mind that she ought to do something to keep herself busy.Shantal rose to her feet and after that, she could be seen making her way to the storage room where she used to store her robot's stuff; a torch was on her hand giving her only source of light. It was unsure though why she decided against turning the lights on to lit the entire hallway and would rather use a flashlight. But perhaps, it

    SHANTAL's P o V~~~~For some reason, I felt like retiring early for today and so I went to bed as soon as I had my dinner. However, it has been more than an hour already since I laid in bed. Yet all I get was me tossing around it and messing with the mattress as my mind was in a complete disarray."No matter what you say to me or do, I will be back. Tomorrow, the day after that. I will come back to see you every day."I kept hearing Alex's voice inside my head as if someone tinkered with the wirings of my brain and made his words play in a loop."Ahh! This won't do!"I thought out loud and bolted my body straight up from the bed, to which in return gave me vertigo. With this rate of how my mind was messing around with me, I know that sleep was no longer part of my option. But rather than allowing myself to have more time to think about Alex I would better off doing something else to kee

    BUTLER JOHN's P o V~~~I was busy adding a few kindling to my fire to keep it alight when I noticed a silhouette approaching my direction. So I squinted my eyes to try and get a better look of who it was, not long after, I saw a familiar figure. It was the young miss and the next thing I knew, I was already heaving a sigh of relief. For a second, I thought it was a burglar because I recently heard news of how the housemaids were talking about those looters who were trying to take advantage of the winter.Even from a far, I could already tell just based from her expression, that the little girl was troubled. She walked towards me while sporting a witless face and then she extended her hands towards the burning fire as if trying to absorb its warmth into her body.Not long after that, her lips quirked a little on the side as she let out a contented sigh,"It's warm."

    "Gosh it's good."Harold said when he got to taste how refreshing the drink was. When he looked at the other two guys, he saw them gesturing to their head but he did not give them much attention."Yes.Sam repeated the same thing with a voice and face devoid of emotion."Something needs fixing."Harold told Sam afterward and so Sam fought back to urge to do and eye roll before replying flatly to him."Okay."This time, Harold noticed that Rico and Michael still keep on doing the same thing so he asked them instead,"What? Is your scalp itchy.""No."The two answered in unison. Jodi on the other hand who was watching all of this farce unfold right before her eyes, could not help but let out a sigh."You sure are made for each other."She said to no one in particular and it was also as seemed she was only talking to herself."Anyway. Michael, I need you to go to Casterly."

    "I am right here.

He believed that if only he was not asleep that time, then maybe Jodi would also consider dating him.On the other hand, Rico seemed to be out of it and oblivious of him."Lover."The other party mumbled to himself as he observed the tarot card in his hand.'"I did not know this will happen. I feel so lonely."Michael muttered to himself out of despondency and while he was in the middle of self pity. Someone walked into the room.They though the one arrived was some random girl who was in full glam and obviously had just gone to salon for her touch up when it decided to have some coffee."Wow! I told her she would be pretty."

    "That robot was sometimes human and sometimes a robot for me and that was why others who can't understand my situation mistakes me as someone who hallucinates and believe a robot as a human just because I am treating it just like one. But for my opinion, my situation was no different from those who loves their pets so much, they even considered them as their child and called themselves as furparents.""My emotions were input into that robot and that person. That is how this miracle happened. That fact completely changed the way I view things. This will be yet another scoop for the reporters present. Nordstorme Corp will go from financing mergers and acquisitions to investing in futuristic industries that involved human sensibilities. Just like what Alpha Tec Inc pioneered years ago.""This is your first change in business strategy in 15 years. Do you have anything mapped out?"One of the reporters raised a question just like what a normal press conference should

    On the flip side, just like what Shantal assumed, Mr. Takashi with Mathilde's instruction called for an emergency meeting on that afternood. Which happened to coincide to the time when Shantal will hold her press conference.Moreover, since Mathilde would not be able to make it there since she was still held in prison, her secretary presided the meeting."We shall begin the emergency board meeting."Secretary Ye declared loudly and her voice reverberated in the room. Jiro was also there along with other board members."The agenda is the dismissal of Director Shantal Nordstorme and the cause is as you were all informed. An illness."She continued while everyone was silent and anxiously prayed so they could ever this meeting once and for all. On the contrary, Mr. Takashi was nodding his head on the side and though he was anticipating for this day come.Mr. Takashi nodded his head toward Secretary Ye to signal her to start it once and for

    In there, Jodi found a list of shares under her name as well as a soft copy of memorandum of renunciation address to Shantal with her name on it and it was then that Jodi realized that her mom had already long planned about it ahead of the time.As it turned out, Mathilde was thinking of using her influence to oust her cousin out of the position.In addition, inside the flash drive she also found an old email account with records of bunch of emails and it took Jodi more than four hours to go through all of them.But by the time she finished reading the exchange of chats Mathilde had with her hitman, Jodi's eyes was bloodshot.It was unsure if this was cause by her prolong exposure to the screen or if it was exhaustion that was doing this thing on her body, but when she get up from her chair, Jodi balled her hands into a fist.She slammed the door shut behind her back as she left the office and on the screen, the last conversation

    It was late in the evening when Jodi received a call out from nowhere. When she checked that registered on the caller ID, she was surprised to see Jiro's name.Truth be told, he was the least person he would expect to contact her. After all, the two of them never talked to each other for ages.Jiro used to be a good friend of hers as well. Just like how she and Shantal were cousins, Jiro and and Zorens were first cousins too so naturally all four of them get to know each other and as a child, they eventually became acquaintances in no time.Besides, since Zoren's parents were a family friend of the Nordstorme they often had an opportunity to hang around during their childhood.However, ever since the day Zoren committed suicide due to the incident regarding the Nordstorme controversy, Jiro also stopped communicating with them.So this made Jodi wonder what had come to Jiro to decide and phone her at this time of the night.But

    "In other words, she wants me to become director and cover up all his shortcomings?"Mr. Takashi insinuated after his contemplation. He did not exactly declined the offer this time, unlike before. Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough. He will just come back. We must make sure he loses the will to come back."Out of nowhere, Mr. Takashi declared with conviction and for a second, the secretary was taken aback by this.One moment, he almost drove her a

    "You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin

    Adelaine Smith's P o V~~~~While Jodi and I were driving down the road looking for any sign of the robot, I received a call and when I checked who it was, I found out that it was Amanda so I accepted the call right away."Ms. Smith, the robot just got on the bus number 707."I heard her voice telling me the moment it picked her call"Great! Thank you for the information."I replied and not long after that, she hung up on her because I reckoned that it would be best if I could relay this news to the other search parties. In this way they would also know where to start looking. Of course, the first one that I tried to call was my lady boss. However, to my dismay, I was only redirected to the voice call feature of the phone.'The number you have dialed is busy at the moment. Please try your call later or leave a message aft
