  Genos didn't understand it.
How could such a serious and powerful man turn into the world's biggest derp?
The cyborg watched the bald man move about the barn that had been turned into some kind of house.He was so relaxed.Normal even.Like there wasn't a care in the world.
"Hey,Genos,could you come do this please? I gotta take a leak."
Genos quickly rushed over to the stove.Saitama had been cooking.Cutting vegetables and placing them in a smaller pot.
As Genos finished cutting the veggies he thought about his master,"This Master is very strange.He doesn't desire power or recognition.In fact, he's acting like a completely different person.Could it be-that Master-Master has another personality?"
"Thank you,"said Saitama as he returned from towards the entertainment room.
Genos stepped back and replied,"No problem,Master."
  As Saitama continued working on their meal Genos stood behind an island in the kitchen,getting anxious.
The bald man glanced up at him and said,"You know,Genos.We're here to relax.Why don't you head outside and have a look around the area.Might find something fun to do."
Genos was startled by this and he quickly replied,"I must decline.I am happy being right here with you,Master."
Saitama sighed and groaned sounding annoyed,"Genos,I-Oh nevermind.If that's how you relax then fine."
Genos scanners picked up on Saitama's sudden change of mood.His body language made it clear he was tense.
"uhm- I guess I can go for a walk," Genos stated as he stood up,"Is there anywhere in particular you'd like me to go?"
Siatama slowly took in a breathe and sighed loudly,"I don't know,kid.Go where you want,there's no one around here anyway.Well,besides a few other random abandoned buildings but they're to over run for anyone to bunk in."
Genos didn't say anything more and he turned his back to Siatama,walking out of the barn. "Geez,that kid needs to loosen up a little," Saitama said aloud as he heard the front door close shut.
  "Why did Master not want me in the house or close to him? He always gets excited when I battle and touches me.Does he not like me anymore? Can I not please my master?" thoughts crowded the cyborgs head and he hadn't noticed that he'd been walking good while.Coming across a small river that looked to widen out towards the right side,Genos spotted a bear.Small and no possible way this animal could be a threat to the cyborg.
Genos sat at the river edge,leaning forwards he intertwined his fingers and rested them on shins.Then brought down his head,to rest his chin on his knees.
Genos could feel it.Relaxation.
The birds in the air began to sing and he watched the bear catch fish. It was actually nice out here.
  It didn't take long for Saitama to be yelling across the forest,"Genos! Hey kid come here!" The cyborg was to far away to hear his master.
"Where did he go? Oh well,I guess I'll eat lunch by myself for now."
Walking back into the house Saitama made himself a bowl of food and then another for Genos.
Sitting down at the coffee table he stared at his food and then looked at the empty spot across from him."Damn him," Saitama whispered to himself.
  Genos had watched the scene before him for about thirty minutes when his scanners started going off.
"Proximity alert?! Who?!" Genos said aloud as he stood up,ready to fight.
Quickly,Genos hid himself up in a tree and waited for the suspect to arrive.
Sure enough,someone came to the river bank.
Genos acted swift.Jumping down and raising his hand ready to blast him from behind,"Who are you!" Genos yelled out.
A bald man glanced behind himself and replied,"Oh,there you are.Foods done."
Genos lowered his hand and relaxed,"Master,you startled me."
  Siatama scratched his bald head saying,"I see that.Come on..Dinners getting cold."
Genos felt himself becoming confused,"Master,since I have been upgraded,we have yet to battle again.Still you did not even flinch when I raised my hand to you.Tell me.How can you be so relaxed and uncaring of your own life?"
The bald man groaned,"You talk to much." Genos groaned,"Master,please answer my question."
Siatama stopped in his tracks.Turning his head just enough for Genos to catch a small glimpse of his eye,"Genos,you disrespect me."
Genos felt an incredibly powerful aura coming from the bald man.That serious look glaring into Genos' eyes made him feel so helpless and all his sensors began to alert of an incoming blow.
  Genos stepped backwards and put up his hands defensively.
Saitama showed a wide and sinister smile and he spoke with a grumbling tone,"You only know me as a dragon level monster but you've yet to experience my true power."
Genos scanners beeped loudly into his head.
Incoming!
INCOMING!
Saitama turned to face forwards and he started walking again.His body language changed and he said,"Hurry up,Genos.You're going to make me eat cold food."
Genos' scanners stopped alerting him but his whole body was still tense and was stuck in his defensive position.
  He watched the bald man get further and further away.When he was finally out of sight,Genos snapped out of his trance and he yelled out loudly,"Master!"
The cyborg ran full speed to catch up to Siatama.
Saitama had just opened the door to the barn house and he glanced back to see Genos hauling ass right to him.
He sighed and stepped into the house,shutting the door behind him.
  Genos aggressively opened the door and slammed it behind him as he ran into the kitchen,"Master!?"
Saitama waved his hand and replied,"Over here,tin can."
Genos rushed into the entertainment room.Saitama sat on the floor with his food neatly placed on the coffee table It was covered by a nice dinner cloth.
There was even a bowl of food for him on the other side of the table.Genos rushed over to his Master and threw himself onto the ground.Knees and head touching the floor,"Master! Please forgive me?! I have angered you,sir.I do not wish for you to be disappointed with me.Please forgive my ignoranance and continue to teach me.To show me how to become strong."
  Saitama munched his food and replied,"I never said I was gonna stop being your master."
The bald man let out a deep sigh and he watched Genos' back open smaller slits to let out steam.A very silly and cool side effect of enhancing his powers.
Genos continued to say,"No you didn't say that,Master,but I feel like a worthless disciple for not seeing your true power."
Saitama groaned aloud,"Genos! Stop it already.I come here to relax.You should too.Go eat already."
  Genos got up and quickly sat in front of the bowl of food his master had prepared for him.
Taking one bite he said,"Master,does my eating please you?"
Saitama didn't take his eyes off his food as he grabbed another mouthful,"Yeah,whatever,dude."
The cyborg became curious again asking,"Then why aren't you touching me?"
