~~~
Our villa was situated just a few blocks away from the city center that offers a park with a good view especially during the time of sunrise. So it became part of my daily routine ever since we moved here, to have a casual walk or sometimes a jog at the park. I prefer starting my day that way as I figured that this was not only good for my physical well-being but also for my mental health. I must say, I considered myself as a fiend when it came down to making sure that my overall lifestyle was always at its top condition.
Just like any other of my normal days, I went jogging first thing in the morning and I had just gone from my exercise and was taking the necessary hydration that I needed to replenish my lost liquid when all of a sudden, I felt a vibration in my pocket. Wondering who could be calling me at this time of the day, I hurriedly fished my phone out and when I looked at the

Adelaine's P o V~~~I pulled over at the cafe's parking lot and subconsciously surveyed the surroundings and to be honest, I was actually baffled by my own action. I guess I am being extra cautious today because I am guilty about something."We're here."I insinuated when out of the corner of my eyes, I noticed that Jodi did not seem to have any plan of coming out of the car at all. Meanwhile, the other party let out a deep sigh just as when the engine died."Maybe it is better if you will go first, you know, to set the table."Jodi chewed on her lip as she said that, a clear sign that she was just as tense as I am at the moment."You see, Shantal can't handle shock pretty well, remember what happened to her last time? So what I have been meaning to say is if you could help me again and do me this one last favor. Let us take this revelation one step at a time, as

Adelaine's P O V.~~~ As soon as I went out of the car, I headed straight into the cafe. The idea of arriving late was the last thing that you would ever think about if you were going to meet my boss. It was for that same reason why I made it a point to prepare earlier than our call time. However, as soon as I stepped inside, I noticed that Ms. Nordstorme was already there waiting for me. So despite my effort to come earlier than her, in the end, the other party still arrived before me, and trust me, the thought of making your boss wait alone could make your palm sweat even in the midst of winter. I felt a cold shiver run down my spine the moment our eyes met. I could definitely feel her piercing stare even from a distance and this added another layer of anxiety that was creeping on my person. From the current looks of it, it seemed that she had been waiting for me for a while already and I could see from the way she looked at me that she was not pl

Adelaine's P o V~~~"So where is this friend of yours?"Ms. Nordstorme asked me a question the moment I got close enough to her table and I gulped a great lungful of air-conditioned air as an answer. I was taken aback when my boss decided to throw me the question as soon as I am within earshot; to the point that she did not even wait for me to take a seat. That was why I was not able to react fast and before I could even explain, the other party already tried throwing me another question."Did I not mention it to you before that you have to bring her here as well?"The first thing that I noticed when she started talking to me was the tone of her voice. For some reason, I could not help but feel like Ms. Nordstorme sounded more cordial than her usual way of shooting the breeze. At the same time, I could see that the corner of her lips was qui

Shantal's P o V~~~I knew that my time was limited and I understood that if I wanted to win against Aunt Mathilde, then I must act fast. My opponent was no ordinary character. The fact that she was a person in the Interpol's most wanted list, says a lot about her character. She has a long list of crimes committed under her old identity way before she even became my uncle's housewife.Likewise, the conversation that I had with the agent the other night had been bugging me relentlessly; a perfect recipe for creating a blend of anxiety and agitation to the point I could hardly tell which was what I am feeling at the moment. I was on my wit's end and I felt like I am constantly at the edge and I am pretty sure that if my unease was allowed to continue for a little while longer, it would start eating my brain away.My thoughts had me awake all night without my knowledge and before I knew it, I w

SHANTAL's P o V~~~An exasperated sigh escaped my lips as soon as I stepped out of the cafe's parking lot. I was not expecting the place to give me a sense of nostalgia.Jodi was the one who introduced me to this place and since then, I became a regular customer here. We often hung out here and we used to come with our robots until she decided to let go of Arvin, her own robot boyfriend. It was for this reason why I am already quite familiar with their crew and vice versa.Meanwhile, I absentmindedly made a bee line in front of the counter to make my order and the next thing I knew, I was already standing in front of the line."Good morning ma'am, as usual?"A disembodied voice beamed at me and its positive energy managed to cut through my line of thoughts. When I lifted my head to meet the owner of the voice, I saw a familiar face.More often than not, they would accom

SHANTAL's P o V~~~Ms. Smith made me wait for like forever and I was just about to give her a call to check what was taking her so long when all of a sudden, I saw her figure finally walking inside the shop.I checked my wristwatch and confirmed that she arrived exactly one minute before the call time. So I could not fault her for choosing to arrive at that time because technically speaking, she was not late, even early. I just wished she arrived earlierAlso, our eyes met as soon as she entered the shop and the other party probably saw the sense of urgency in my eyes. That was why she crossed our distance with large strides. However, a frown soon appeared on my face the moment I realized that she was on her own."So where is this friend of yours? Did I not mention it to you before that you have to bring her here as well?"I inquired before she c

Adelaine's P o V~~~"So where is this friend of yours? Did I not mention it to you before that you have to bring her here as well?"Ms. Nordstorme asked me with a smile but it did little to make me less nervous."Err... Something came up so she'll be running late for a bit. But rest assured that she will be here in a minute or so."I replied and told my boss a lie as natural as I could possibly do. I was known for being unable to keep a straight face every time I was telling a lie so I was surprised when I did not give myself away this time. Also, I heaved a sigh of relief when Ms. Nordstorme no longer asked me more about my informer, also known as, Jodi.Ms. Nordstorme went silent for a while and I also noticed that her smiling face was replaced with a blank one. However, the longer that I watched her expression, the more that I notice the almost indiscernible frown on her face. I could

ADELAINE's P o V~~~I became too absorbed in trying to figure out what was really going on inside my boss' mind and before I knew it, I am already in a daze. I have no idea how long did my stupor actually lasted but the next thing I knew, I was already looking straight and deep into Ms. Nordstorme's eyes. She caught me staring at her, while I was in a trance so I have no recollection when did I even make eye contact with her, in the first place.I turned my gaze away as soon as I realized what was going and in order to prevent the other from asking me further questions regarding this awkward scenario, I changed the topic on purpose."We already sent him a text message advising him to come and meet us here. I even made sure to resend the location to him today, in case he missed the first one."I deliberately informed her about the steps that I did prior to coming over. I

"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."

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.

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

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
