It has been a week since Lewis and I became a couple, it has been amazing. Not only do we connect on a physical level, but an emotional one as well. Snuggles are like the tea I drink; sweet, warm, and full of memorable scents. I am learning to do things on my own, but he is always there in case something goes wrong. So far I have been able to walk to the bookstore and back with no problem. Crossing the street when it's busy, that is something I have to work on a lot. The books have been giving me more stimuli as well as the radio. I feel I am questioning myself more, and I've tried asking why I was made, but whenever I try...let's just say Lewis doesn't look happy. I comfort and kiss him to get that lovable smile back to being plastered on his face. Love, that fuzzy feeling that I learned, it has a feeling like no other; I sing it, feel it, live it. The song currently on was so wonderful to sing along to. I felt I could relate to it so much, and for some of it...I didn't know why.
"You are the dawn of a new day that's waking,
A masterpiece still in the making,
The blue in an ocean of grey
You are right where you need to be,
Poised to inspire and to succeed,
You'll look back and you'll realize one day."
Pirouetting around the room, I simulated- acted, like a ballerina. The music faded out, like the slip of the word that sounds robotic had scared its tune away. My shoulders started to slump, I couldn't get the thought out of my head; no matter what Lewis said, or what I believed, I wasn't human. Sure I was humanoid, but not human. Made, man-made to be exact. I looked at my hands, i pulled up my shirt a bit to see that the metal piece was still there, a reminder. Lewis had to go out today, said it was important and that he'd be home soon. So I had the house to my myself, now what? I decided to brew up some loose leaf tea that he had bought me to try. It's supposed to help relax and stop nightmares, I keep having them.
'Why do you trust him?'
I looked up to see no one there...
'He's keeping something from you'
