Chapter 18 - Chapter#17(What it feels like to be human at end?)

Time: 7am (Morning)

I was sleeping peacefully with no worries in my world.Until- my room door slammed open.I flinched and woke up to see from my droopy eyes that man i standing there near the door staring at my sleepy figure.

He came closer and began to yell,

"ARE YOU CRAZY GO AND WASH YOUR FACE TO MEET ME OUTSIDE."I didn't have time to react ,I quickly stood from my bed and rushed to do as he pleased.

I hurriedly turned on the tap rubbed the soapy jelly on my face.

Mirror:

--->List:

1 Wash face properly-

2 Brushed teeth-

|Timer:5 minutes|

-

My jaw was about to drop.Who coded the mirror ?

Ofcourse it was him THAT MANnnnnn.

(robot can't take it anymore :_))

I was already fed up by him,Now this! I couldn't believe my eyes but there was nothing I could do,I finished real quick and went outside.

There I could see him waiting with his usual attire

and stop watch,He looked at the garden which was filled with weeds.Then he met my eyes as he ordered me to clean this within 10 minutes.

My eyes widened ,How was it possible to clear the garden competely with this time limit?

But I didn't have a choice because I am a robot and they are meant to obey the command.

Yet no one knew about this unknown realm,Only I was hiding this truth deep inside .I didn't know how they perceive me,

A human or a robot-?

The purple lavender sky filled with the unknown dust are the only remains of humanity.

What was humans even thinking while desserting this place?

As I was thinking, He observed and decided to ask:

Hey Tom,

What do you think about life?

Is it a gift or a punishment?."

I stopped for a second because I wasn't expecting this question from me, I didn't have a answer so I only said:

"I don't know-"

Our entire existence is full of secrets,

The more we try to understand, the more lost we become."

He smiled as he grabbed a stone and targeted my face.

"So , ignorance is a bliss?"(He asked)

I quickly dodged his attack but before I could say anything .He shouted ,

"You know thats free will there.

"I think ,therefore I am-."

Such a beautiful quote to explain the vanity of existence :).

I stared at him for a moment . I was moved by his depth.I no longer saw him as a normal rather someone-

With a great sense of purpose.

I opened my mouth slowly and asked who he really is.

All he did was smile and reply:

"Think me as your father figure that's all."

"A-father?"

But,

Who is father at en-?

I don- kn--

He stood up calmly and came to me.After a moment he pulled me in a hug and mummbled in my ears:

"A father is the one who guides a soul,Tom

And you are not alone-"

I could feel tears forming in my eyes-

I maybe a robot but I also have emotions.

I am a being who may not have a heart but have feelings.-

But finally a random person could see that in me-

I couldn't believe it.

I hugged him back hard,Letting all my worries vanish in his comfort..

And At last,

His stopwatch started moving-for the first time and he whispered his name,

"Yaler,A great man-"
