2024-10-29 19:42:56One sunny day, Shantal suddenly felt like going to a library and so she decided to drive and visit the nearest library in her place. Out of the countless books in the shelves, she immediately felt drawn to the storybook section.
She let her fingers glide on the borders of the book when her eyes landed on a specific book. She took it and there she saw its title that says,
The velvet rabbit doll...
For some reason, the book gave her off some sense of familiarity, and before she knew it, she was already immersed in reading the children's book. She reckoned that if Alex was there with him, he would definitely pick the same book.
The story revolved around a stuffed rabbit sewn from velveteen. It was given as a Christmas present to a small boy. The boy plays with his other new presents and forgets the velveteen rabbit for a time. These presents are modern and mechanical, and they snub the old-fashioned velveteen rabbit. T

While Shantal was at the phase of wallowing over her newfound love story that died out due to her Android Partner meeting its untimely end, she was also reminded of her past and the old wound that was brought by an old romance was reopened. Unbeknownst to anyone, way before meeting Alex, Shantal had already met a robot the same age as hers. It was right after Zoren's death when she decided to transfer schools. The pressure from the comparison between her and Jodi at that time was not helping as her guardian, Butler James decided to enroll her in a different school. He was the father of her current Butler, Butler John. At that time, Shantal trusted her butler more than anyone else, and the other party also used to be her father figure. Her foolish self, young and wild, at that time, let herself fell in love with the robot and it obviously did not end well for both of them. That was why she was not fond of keeping an Android Partner for herself and even swore not to al

Shantal fell in line and waited for her cue to get her lunch at the school cafeteria. As soon as she got her food, Shantal sat at the table in the corner of the room. Somewhere that was usually designated for those who don't have friends. just like her. She settled at one of the chairs and thought that she could get peace as she ate her food.

I do too."The two walked together to their class and picked the seats that were right next to each other. The class goes by in almost an instant for Shantal because she only focused on Steve the whole time. For some reason, she could see so much in him and could feel feeling for him than she ever felt to anyone before that even to herself, she could not understood why.As class end, Shantal rose to her feet and looked at Steve. This time, she was the one who initiated the conversation."Well, do we have any other classes together?"She asked, hoping that they coul

Shantal wakes up to her alarm clock blaring at her. She never did like it, but she always obeyed it as if it were her mother asking to get up. That is when she had a mother. She gets up and turns the alarm off."Good morning mom. I'm gonna try to have a good day today." She says to a picture of a robot on her nightstand.Shantal walks out into the kitchen and gets herself a bowl of cereal. "Do you want anything, BUutler John?" She asks as she sees the other party walk up from the basement."I'll just have some coffee."He says in his usual gruff voice. For a man who works on inventions all day and hardly eats, he still managed to be overweight. Shantal grabs his coffee and sets it on the stand next to his chair."Maybe one day you'll invent the razer to shave your beard." Shantal teases."You sound just like your late mother."He says as he takes a sip of coffee and reads the newspaper.Shantal eats her breakfast

While Shantal ponders over what she's heard, she sees a figure walking toward them making minimal sound. she looks over and sees the principal. Steve says something that rocks her world to the core. "Hey dad!" Steve says enthusiastically. "Dad?!" Shantal says as she looks at her principal, Mr. Jameson.The Principal only wears a black cloak with a large black ancient cowboy hat. No one has ever seen what he looks like other than the part of his face that isn't covered with a scarf, which is just an eye with a little bit of hair. "Yes Shantal, I am Steve 's father. And I'm actually glad you're here, because I needed to talk to you." Mr. Jameson says flatley."Uh, can you do this a bit later dad?" Steve replies. "We we're about to go to class together." Mr. Jameson looks slightly inconvenienced, well as much as you can tell with only seeing one eye. "Sure, that'll work." He says as he walks off.Shantal closes her lunchbox

Steve and Shantal turn the corner into their neighborhood."So, do you want to go to the movies later? Like, Tuesday?"Steve says as he gently puts Shantal down."Movies? Yeah, sure. I'll have to check with my dad to see if it's ok, but I should be fine."Shantal replies as she starts walking toward her house."Thanks for the lift, Steve."She says as she walks inside and closes the door.A few minutes later, she hears a knock on her door. she walks downstairs and looks through the peephole to check. It is Mr. Jameson. She opens the door to see the tall black figure casting a shadow on her."Uh, Mr. Jameson! What a surprise!"She says. The other party, on the other hand, stares blankly at her for a few seconds, then says,"Shantal, I want you to be a soldier."After a few seconds, her eyes widen in confusion and horror."You want me to do what?" She blurted out when she recovered from her initi

Shantal walks happily over to Steve's house and knocks on the door. There's no answer after a few seconds, so she knocks again, this time hearing someone running down a set of stairs and then a large, mechanical object fall down. The door opens, showing Steve dusting himself off and picking up the broken pieces of glass that are remains of his facial screen."Oh my goodness, are you ok?" Shantal says as she walks in and lays her hands on Steve's shoulders. What's left of Steve's screen turns bright red as he looks down at Shantal. "Yes, I am. Do you think you could help repair me?" He says looking at the broken glass. Shantal steps around the glass carefully as she walks into the house. It's quite big despite the look on the outside. For some reason, Shantal remembers boards on the windows not too long ago. Steve starts to walk down a set of stairs next to the kitchen. "Follow me, there's a laboratory down here with some spare glass!" He says as his feet stomp o

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.

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

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.

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
