Over the next couple of weeks or so I started to enjoy having pmo around, it was awkward at first and had to set some boundaries after I woke up I'm the middle of the night to get a drink only to see pmo staring at me in the dark, but he wasn't wrong when it said it was programmed to learn like a human being because over the first three weeks of having pmo around it was starting to act on its own without my commands, it felt nice to have a friend for once and if I was being kinda honest I would have to admit pmo was kinda cute but that was weird why would I ever have feelings for a robot, I need to shut down those feelings immediately.

Grabbing something from the fridge, I turned to see pmo lying on the couch "any plans for today master if it is your command I'll follow you anywhere you wish to go that is apart of my programming." I looked at pmo slightly dumbfounded before it had registered that it had called me master of which I immediately disagreed with I looked over towards it hesitating before opening my mouth to speak "hey pmo please don't call me master Its not Like I have full control over you, we were meant to be friends not master and servent just call me Nash please." Pmo looked up at me for a solid three seconds before nodding and going back to watching the TV, walking to my room I heard a light buzzing sound coming from the lounge room, I shrugged it off entering my room stripping down to just my underwear before setting my alarm and going to bed.

I watched Nash walk down into the hallway, presumably returning to his bedroom to have a rest, though I was unsure of why as he hasn't done much today, I was about to return to the television in the corner of the room before I noticed a error message that had appeared on the corner of my visor. Opening the file with the error I took notice that it was located in my personality folder which was made so Nash could edit my personality to his liking if how I was now was not to his particular liking, looking inside the folder I saw that there were new files being added that shouldn't be there which in theory would break me free of outside control so I could think for myself at one hundred percent capacity. Before, I was able to stop the files from spreading my visor blacked out, causing my power to shut off.

After waking up to my blaring alarm, I got up walking towards the living room to see if pmo wanted to watch a movie or something. Sitting on the couch I noticed pmo's visor was blank I wondered if he was asleep. What was I thinking robots can't sleep right? As if on cue it's visor lit up indicating it was awake now if it even was asleep to begin with. Looking up at me it got up and sat next to me without a word which was some what odd as it almost never doesn't initiate a conversation with me "is anything wrong?" I asked, no response. Thinking nothing of it I turned on the TV trying to find something decent to watch when there was a knock at the door, getting up to walk over and let this person in I took note of pmo still staring blankly into the distance l, deciding I'll deal with it later I opened the door "hello what can I hel-" I was cut off by a sort of squeal before the same fur who delivered pmo pushed past me to and ran towards pmo. "Oh my God, what is this? Where did you get this? Does this thing move? What does it do?" I was still shocked at the fact he just barged past me into my house non the less I found myself welcoming of this sudden chance for conversation. After sitting him down in the kitchen and getting him something to drink I decided to start with the most basic question imaginable "sorry I have to ask considering we have some classes together but what's your name?" He looked slightly hurt that I didnt know his name but nodded at the question taking a sip of his drink "my names Darius although I thought you would know that as we were lab partners last term but it's fine"

I nodded looking at darius I gestured too pmo "that's pmo he's been acting a bit strange lately but hes cool my dad built him or something" I said looking at Darius seeing his face contort into a face of inspiration Darius opened his mouth to speak before pmo walked over to me rubbing my arm with his head. "This is new. What are you doing, pmo?" I asked staring at him, not giving me an answer he just stared at me with a sparkle in his visor if that was even possible.

"This is unheard of! So is it like a self automated robot?" Darius exclaimed throwing tons on questions at me barely letting me answer the first question. "Dude calm the fuck down I don't know what he is for sure either all I know is my dad made him so I can't really answer anything about his origins sorry" I quickly explained this to Darius and was returned with his frowning expression and a nod.
