After taking a bath, Christy casually put on a bathrobe and went in the guest room. The room was heated. On the table were a bowl of porridge and hot milk. Beside them on the sofa was a large bag of snacks she had bought in the supermarket.
She opened a bag of potato chips and tossed one into her mouth.
When she turned around, she saw the little robot standing there, charging itself. It stood upright and looked ahead, similar to a doll in size. But Christy felt it was special. She believed that it was conscious, able to think and communicate.
She changed the band-aid on the sole of her foot, then walked to it. She squatted down to asked, "Why are you here?"
Emily forgot to tell Trevor that he didn't need to follow Christy anymore. Probably, its program hadn't been changed yet. Now that it was discovered, it naturally stayed in situ.
The robot stared at Christy for a long time before it suddenly turned its head.
Christy felt it strange, "What's wrong?"
