" I'm a human " the 'robot' told me as I was window-shopping.
"Excuse me?.." I asked, a bit shaken at the sudden random confession.
" I said I'm a human. "
I looked at the rob.. no, human skeptically. He looked at me back, following me with his eyes. And then I noticed something, he had a scar on his chin.
"Mr. Roberts?! " I exclaimed. Mr. Roberts was my ex-boss, we worked at the business that created the 'robots'
He quickly glared at me as a helper came walking towards me.
" Do you need any help, ma'am? " she asked.
"ah!.. no! I just thought I saw someone I knew, turns out is wasn't him.." I chuckled nervously and bowed, apologizing.
I bought Mr. Roberts; kinda weird but anyway, and brought him home. I unpackaged him, tearing the wrap off of his shoulders and legs.
He jumped out, stretching. He seemed taller than I last saw him, thinking he grew, I threw the thought down the drain.
" so... what happened? " He turned quickly and just smiled, motioning me down to sit on the couch while he explained.
My heart dropped as he went on, about how the company we were working for ran out of metal to produce the robots. They began luring in new people, promising money. They did surgery's on them, implanting seeds and microchips inside of them. They programmed them, reset their whole brain. Mr. Roberts explained that he got out by pretending to be asleep, even though it was painful, he kept up the act.
" and that's it.. " He said while sighing.
" wow.. " I responded, at a lost of words.
" how many...? "
" excuse me?" he asked
"How many others?" I asked, eyes wide.
He looked at me, with pitiful eyes.
" do you mind if I sleep over? " he says, ignoring my question.
" answer my question " I asked, standing up.
" Shayla... please... not today.. "
Sighing, I take him to the guest room. I gave him what he needed and went to my room.
The second I get into my room, I lean against my room and sigh. (does the government know this?! Isn't this illegal?! )
Next day
I look online to see if anyone else had a problem with, you know, everything.

Lol... I literally just returned mine... she was so annoying, begging me and crying. lmao
Annoyed, I shut my laptop and decide to go out. I met up with a few of my girl friends and we go to a restaurant.
"Guys, did you hear that that business that made those creeply realistic robots got booted out of the country?" Jasmine says, stuffing her mouth with fries.
"Girl... you need to stop stuffing your mouth" Denise says, with a disgusted face.
" I bought one yesterday... " I confess.
My three friends look at me, wide eyed.
" What?! " Chen yells.
" Calm down " I say, apologizing to the nearby tables.
Sighing, I tell them all about what Mr. Roberts told me, and how what happened in the business.
"At least they got booted from the country" Denise says, munching on her fries, one by one like a psychopath.
" I guess you could say it ended well " I say, looking at my phone that just dinged.
Breaking News
Many people who were victims of Hander Company have been having surgery done on them, turns out they were actually being programmed with chips in them.
( I hope Mr. Roberts went ) I pray, putting my phone away.
" Enough with the chit chat , let's get this party STARTED! " Chen says, standing up in the table.
(She's def drunk) Thinking that I chug down my drink and start singing with my friends.
The End
