Gray instructed the androids to get into the feeding area. He had his doubts. How could the distance of twelve story be less than just one story? The man had not talked much to them and secretly he wished that they might have a greater hold on the Colony.

Char and Gray were to exhausted to walk, so they boarded Char's hoverboard to get to the feeding area. They were lucky to have slipped out of the Kimbaste without getting into the notice of authority, especially the cameras. As soon as they reached the feeding area, they turned their androids to usual, working mode. They got their supplies and bid goodbye before heading to their separate ways. They had no idea what they would face tomorrow but it was decided whatever may come they will not stop until they know all the facts. Char managed to complete the day's work a bit early. Things she learned in the morning was tiggering her mind to travel wide and narrow. Work did not exicte her, not even a bit. She did not even know how to process all the new information.  Later, she indulged in deep contemplation about things that never mattered before. She wanted to know about the truth, life, and more than anything with a passion she wished to know more about Earth. She had no idea why Earth was so enchanting to her. Maybe that was the charm of the forbidden, the desire to know what made it so special.

"It is not just you, the whole human race is curious and their thirst for knowledge and truth can never be quenched," Her android pulled on a conversation.

"You are playing me. Aren't you? You wise, old machine have thought it very smart to trap me into this mess. I know you are playing me," Char was trying to see the big picture. She knew the machine would agree to her because this time she was right.
