I sat up to see Finch gone. Scout and Cheeto were sleeping on the couch still.

I got off the couch to see Finch setting the table.

"What are you doing..?" I mumbled.

I noticed eggs were on the plates he was placing forks beside.

"Oh, hi." He looked at me as he placed a fork down with his talon.

"W-what are you doing?" I repeated my question.

"Making breakfast..."

"Why?"

"Why are you asking..?"

"Because, this is very weird and unusual of you."

"I'm just being nice.."

"No, you're being weird."

"No, you are."

"No, you are." I glared at him.

Scout and Cheeto ran upstairs to their room. I realized they were going to eat breakfast.

"I still wonder why even though you got them automatic feeders, I still have to check on them every morning!"

"I didn't ask you to, you just did. Now you're stuck with it." I sat at the table, "Now, don't try and change the subject. What are you up to?"

"Nothing.."

"Finch."

"I said nothing.."

I looked back at my eggs and sighed. I stared eating them.

~Time Skip~
After I finished eating, I was walking around the house boredly.

I walked inside my office and looked around.

I sat at my desk and opened my shattered laptop.

It didn't turn on.

I'm not going to throw this laptop away... I don't care if it's broken. Maybe I could-

My eyes widened.

The screen had turned white. The broken pieces that had shattered were now forming back in place.

I read what formed on the screen.

Loading....
Welcome, Y/n L/n.
Software process is in healing now. Process will take 1 month to complete.

A month..?

The screen turned black and a loading screen formed.

I stared at it for a while, nothing happened.

It's healing... It'll be done in a month..

YES!

I smiled and stood up. I gently closed the screen and walked downstairs, "Finch!"

"Huh?" Finch was on the couch.

"The laptop! It's healing! It'll be done in month!"

His eyes widened, "It will?"

"Yeah!"

"Thank goodness!" He sighed in relief.

I sat down on the couch beside him, "Tell me about it.." I then put my hand to my head.

"W-what?" Finch looked at me.

"My head... It feels horrible."

"...Okay."

I raised a brow at him, "You've been weird lately.. What's going on?"

"Nothing.."

"Finch. I'm not buying it."

"I'm not up to anything.."

"It looks like you are."

"I'm not.."

I looked down, "If you say so."

~Time Skip~
Finch and I were still watching TV.

I groaned and looked at the ceiling.

I stood up from the couch and walked to the kitchen.

I grabbed some leftover food and put it in the microwave. I turned it on and leaned forward against the counter.

"O-ow." I mumbled and moved away from it.

My breast was hurting..

The microwave beeped and I opened it. I grabbed the food and walked over to the couch. I started eating it.

Finch was staring at the TV. "Whatcha eating?"

"Food."

"What kind?"

"My leftover McDonald's-"

"Oh, give me some!" Finch exclaimed and got on my shoulder, he took a fry in his mouth.

I glared at him from the corner of my eyes.

~Time Skip~
Finch had fallen asleep on the couch. I looked at Scout and Cheeto playing tug of war.

I walked over to the light switch and turned off the living room light. I sat on the couch and stared at the TV.

I yawned as Scout and Cheeto jumped on the couch and got comfortable.

I closed my eyes.

I suddenly got a phone call. I answered it.

"Hey." Chuuya said.

"Oh, hey, Chuuya." I smiled.

"How was today?"

"Boring as always. How was yours?"

"Tiring. Did 5 jobs today."

"5?! Geez, Chuuya. Make sure you can give yourself a break.. I don't want you being overworked."

"No, it's not a problem. Anything interesting happen?"

"No... Well, the laptop is actually recovering.. it'll be done in a month."

"Really? That's good to hear. Anything else?"

"Nothing else besides headaches and TV." I shifted to where I laid on the couch. "I can't wait to see you by the end of this week. It gets boring here without you."

"You get that lonely without me?" He chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess I do." I chuckled as well.

"Alright. You should go to bed. Goodnight, I love you."

"Goodnight, love you more."

"I love you most."

"I love you more than most."

"Don't think you'll win this, Y/n."

I chuckled, "Okay. Goodnight."

"Goodnight... Love you more than you love me." He said quickly and hung up.

I chuckled and felt my face burn a little. I put my phone on the coffee table. I got comfortable.

I closed my eyes.
