The once spacious room was now well arranged but it was not too packed either
looking at her handwork satisfied her stomach grumble indicating that she was hungry
looks like have ignored the monster in the stomach but first let me check on Aya first
she went into the other room when she opened the door she saw that the place was much bigger than the one she chose but it wasn't scanty and it was warm
Aya was closing the window arranging the curtains when she noticed another presence behind her
you done already
hmm
how is my little brother
he's already asleep, he is more obedient than you when you were young
are you calling me a trouble maker she asked jokingly as she walked closed to the bed sitting at the edge
just a comment
knock knock
a knocking sound was heard at which April answered
A young girl about eighteen was at the door
good evening
yes
I was asked to bring this to you and she stretched her hand revealing a tray covered and from the scent coming from it, one could tell what lies in it
your dinner ma'am
she accepted it and thanked the girl
she gave her a warm smile and turned to leave when oh I almost forgot the Lord said that you should meet him tomorrow
Alright thanks
you're welcome the girl flashed another smile before she left making her think that before even trusting me this much shouldn't they be at least wary of them but they are even treating her like she was one of them
she closed the door and walked back in
who was that?
our dinner was sent
oh how thoughtful I haven't had anything since morning
I did not know that an artificial intelligence will need to have food where will it digest
ha ha
you do know that am not any normal AI right
I know don't make faces let's eat
After dinner Aya we will have discussion tomorrow
I know already just make proper arrangements
when the world was already asleep
April was still wide awake she lied on the bed unable to fall asleep
the world I thought I know is now unknown to me but right now I feel like am venturing in to the unknown
she sprinted up from the bed
now every second is like a gold to me
she walked out of the house as she look at the once lively street now silent with lamps glowing not allowing the dark to engulf the whole area
this place is totally different from where I came from the people are all filled with different kind of negativity
jealous, lust for power, betrayal and selfishness
but here am a stranger yet have already been accepted with their heart warming up to me and to think that...
huh will I be able to selfishly used them like I plan to
I need to put those thoughts aside for now I will make a choice sitting on a tree branch looking at the sky
to have thought that once upon a time the human struggle for survival like animals
she was staring intently at the sky lost in it's beauty
********
Back at Darcy place the man looking at the reports was annoyed with all the reports he was reading
what is the meaning of all of this?
he shouted with visible bulging veins on his forhead
he don't know when we can start training soldiers with ability as it seems like there is something wrong with the formula retrieve and nor can the original be duplicated
he just slumped on the chair like a dead log as he held his head this was totally not what I signed for
call me Benjamin
yes sir am the woman in his front left the room
though they did not inquire any loses even after the incident with Rita in term of man power and resources they were still stable but the way the association is intact is not as before doubts and questions have started to surface like why would a whole city army be dispatched just to deal with one women and yet there is still silence on the item retrieved
******
At the city in the woods inside the city Lord's nest a man was serious reading reports as his head was buried in the mountains of works on the table even his head wasn't visible
sir am sorry to intrude but....
you want to ask why I let her in even declaring her one of us he said looking at the extraordinary tall guy in his front who was non other than his right hand man the one April met with when she was interrogated this morning
you're the wise
she made a good preposition. we both know that how weak and vunerable we are and when she said I am very vise the look in her eyes explained everything
that was when I understood that even with our current man power and the ability we lack many things and growth is very important for every city and if we start to retard the only choice is destruction
and you think that she can help us with this, she is just about eighteen
I have never been in my judgement in people and this will not be the first either
I understand
you can retire for the night
yes sir as the burly man left the short man in the chair looked at the sky thinking
I can only give you the opportunity but whether you can grow it's up to you to decide
the night sure is beautiful I wonder how tomorrow will be the next minute will always be a mystery to all
one step at a time he remembers what that woman told him he opened his drawer revealing a white bracelet identical to the broken ones with April
when the time is right you will know what to do
till know am still in confusion but why do I get the feeling that you and my helper are linked somehow
