Manager Noh

As soon as we arrived at the hotel, I felt relief. I suddenly felt at peace.

This day is so long and a lot of things happened. I almost had a mental breakdown.

But finally I can take rest.

I plopped down on my bed without even washing and closed my eyes.

The robot followed me and sat on my bed beside my lying body.

"You almost got caught there," he said which had me open my eyes again.

Yeah. That was insane.

We almost got caught by Rocky because I could not lie.

"Thanks for saving me there," I said and smiled at him.

He gave me a smile too and I remembered the real Moonbin again.

How has he been?

I just realized that Dr. Lee had not updated me about his condition lately so I decided to call her.

"I am going to call Dr. Lee. But you have to charge yourself first," I told the robot.

"You just changed my battery, I am still full," he said.

His eyes suddenly turned green and some robotic voice said, "Battery update: 95%."

And his eyes went back to look like those of human eyes.

"See?" He said.

"But you have to charge the other one because what if we encounter another situation like this again? We will need a spare battery whenever," I reminded him and he nodded.

"Plus, I will need an excuse to give the boys if they come looking for you. 'He's sleeping,'" I said while looking for his charger and his old battery.

I asked him to lie down and did the same thing I did in the van to open his  chest and reveal the small vault. I removed his new battery and replaced it with the old one.

I closed his chest and said, "Alright, now go ahead and charge yourself."

But he did not reply.

Oh no...

"MB3? MB3?" I kept on calling him and shaking him but there was no answer.

I opened his chest again and removed his battery. Trying to figure out if I placed it the other way. But I did not.

I got to call Dr. Lee now. Maybe I did something wrong in the process that is why he is not waking up.

I dialed Dr. Lee's number and she picked up.

"Manager Noh?"

"Dr. Lee, I need your help," I started while looking at MB3 with an open chest while lying on my bed.

I looked at the door of our room and remembered that I locked it so we were safe.

About the CCTVs maybe I will just talk them out with the security.

"What happened this time?!"

She sounded so panicked again.

"MB3 is not waking up," I said.

"What?! Why not?!"

I heard some falling noises in the background of the other line.

"I replaced his new battery with the old one and when I closed him up he could not wake up," I told her.
