"Did you find a place?"

Rico asked his colleagues as soon as they walked back into their facility place. Everyone else was gathered around the table for dinner except him because he was still not done serving the foods.

"There was this one place that stands out, out of all the places we've seen and so we already signed its contract. We can move in after we send 1096 to the Ironscrapes.

Sam replied while dragging her tired body to the chair. She was completely exhausted combing the city with Harold searching for the best place that can suit their budget. Harold followed behind her and did the same.

"I am sure you guys choose the right place."

Mike said as he gave them a reassuring smile.

"By the way, did 1096 run out of battery?"

Harold, on the other hand, asked when he noticed that their robot was dead.

    AUTHOR's P o V ~~~ "Did you always have blonde yet curly hair?" Jodi asked Sam out of the blue "Yes, it is genetic." Sam replied while touching her locks consciously. "Weird." Jodi did not intend to say that out loud. That was an opinion that was supposed to stay inside her head and only remained there. However, it slipped out of her tongue. Everyone was taken aback when they heard her say that. But if truth would be told, Jodi was just as shocked as they were. "Sorry, I did not mean to offend you." She hurriedly apologize and tried to explain herself in front of the group, especially at Sam when she realized what she had done. "You are pretty now, but I think that you would look much nicer with straighter hair. I kind of feel so sorry for you." Mike almost burst out laughing because of that but he stopped himself befo

You tell you have something to tell me." "Now, I am giving you the opportunity to say it to me. What is it that you want to say badly?" "I will tell you.---" Alex took a step forward as he said that but Shantal took a step back, on the other hand. So Alex no longer approached her and remained standing from where he was. "-- I will tell you everything." He reiterated as he pleaded with his eyes. "I had a lot to say." He added but bit his lips afterward. "I don't know where to start." he mumbed to himself so soft yet Shantal was still abl

No robot would have blame others for farting.Does it mean that I am that stupid for believing it? "To be honest, I was surprised that you believed me that time." Alex insinuated and Shantal could only pursed her lips together when the truth slapped her hard. "My goodness! How did I fall for it?!" She asked herself in disbelief. "Hey! You must have thought that I was a foolish, have you not? Tell the truth!" "Yes, I could not believe how foolish you are back then." "That is enough!" "Can you believe me now?" "Fine. Whatever." Shantal said as she rolled her eyes. But not long after that, she added. "Now that the

    AUTHOR's P o V~~~"I only stole what you already throw away."Alex answered although he still could not help but feel bashful admitting to this crime of his."And what exactly was that thing that I throw away?""You used to throw away a bunch of food from your refrigerator. One time, you even threw a wagyu beef that was about to go bad next day...."Alex still wanted to continue but when he saw the expression of disgust that the other party was sporting on her face, he felt the need to explain his side."You have to understand that I have to eat to survive. How do you think I was able to persevere up until this day if I have not eaten anything on your back while I was acting as a robot at your house?""You took them all from the trash can?"Of all the thing that Alex said, Shantal's head was only wrapped around one idea and she could not help bu

    AUTHOR's P o V~~~Shantal asked Alex again another thing that she was curious to know about. But this time, this has more deeper sense."Okay, then what did you think of me when you first met me?""As person in general?"Alex asked her back and so the girl could not help but roll her eyes because of it." Obviously"Shantal insinuated with a jeer as she could not help but wonder to herself why the other party suddenly seemed so dull.'Was he this dull before when he was still acting as my robot? Why I was not able to notice it then'She thought to herself. Meanwhile, just as when Shantal was in the middle of her thoughts, Alex, on the other hand, found his answer to her question."Well I think that you are nothing but a spoiled brat.""What did you just say?"She blurted out upon hearing Alex's answer."Well, you cannot ex

    AUTHOR's P o V~~~"Okay fine! And then?"She asked him to continue since there was nothing left for them to do any way but to talk. Apparently, the meteor shower has not yet to be seen; contrary to what was reported on the news."But after a certain point, I started to feel sorry about you. I was dumbfounded by everything you said at first. But then eventually, as I continue to hear them, literally everything that was coming out from your mouth, your stories, they all suddenly started to sound sad."Shantal became silent after that."So the more I spent time with you, the more I got to know you. I keep feeling sad. So...."Alex trailed off again. but just like before, Shantal urged him to continue."So???"Shantal said with a drawl and so Alex resumed."So I started to wish for your happiness.""So?"She asked ag

    "When Harold called me that day and told me that 1096 was finally fix and I can go home and end my pretense, I felt so much relieved. But then when I realized that I won't be able to see you again, it saddened me beyond I could even imagine. It was back when we were at your town house. I switched places with the robot with the cover of the night. But as I leave you sleeping on your bed soundly that night, my heart could not help but be in pain. Because I could not say anything to you. Not even a goodbye. I feel sorry that I could not tell you the truth and that my existence would have to remain hidden forever. I felt so terrible as we drove away that night while watching your robot taking the place that once belonged to me, though it was originally his to begin with and I was only the substitute all along.""Was it very hard to be my robot?""It was bearable because I like the part where I was able to see you every day. I loved it as well, every time

    Shantal looked away and refused to say anything afterward. But there was no need for her to explain her action anymore. Alex already understood her even without her telling him what was wrong. So instead, he just guided Shantal's head towards his shoulder and let her lean her head towards him, wordlessly."I will always be right here until the day comes that you are ready to accept me again wholeheartedly."Alex whispered softly towards Shantal just as when she was resting her tiny head at his broad shoulder."I thought I will never get a chance like this to tell you what I feel. But now, here we are, and I will tell you everything I badly wanted to tell you before."Alex added under his breath."The day it rained. The day you held an umbrella over my head. The day I kissed---"Before Alex could even finish what he was saying, Shantal already cut him off."--Stop.""The best gift should be put aside."Shantal said as she

    "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.

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.

    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

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
