THE DOWNTOWN SAVIOUR {COMPLETED}

THE DOWNTOWN SAVIOUR

"It was a busy day," Finn said, removing THE DOWNTOWN SAVIOUR badge from his coat and putting it carefully on the table. It was the highest honor given to a robot in DOWNTOWN, a city of artificially advanced robots protecting the world.

"Frere?" He called his twin sister.

When he got no reply from Frere, he understood the matter. He knew where to find her, so he turned his heels to the terrace.

He found her sitting alone, staring at the stars. He decided not to break her moment, so he quietly slipped himself onto the seat beside her.

"It's too cold. Isn't it?" He said in a bid to start a conversation.

Frere looked at him and then rolled her eyes. "What is that to you? You can't feel it."

Finn sighed. His gaze fell upon the tiny snowflakes that were slowly descending the heaven. "I can understand how you are feeling now."

Frere got up from her seat and started moving back to the room. But before going, she turned around and said with anger and hurt exposed in her voice, "You know you can't understand how I am feeling now. You never can. Robots don't feel hot or cold, but I do. Why? I ask you why?!"

Finn was now silent. He had no answer to it. Frere continued, taking his silence as an answer, "Because my vanadium heart is frozen?! Don't I ever want to feel the supremacy of a robot, a DOWNTOWN robot!"

Finn also got up from his place and turned to Frere. "You know that I didn't do it on purpose. We were just manufactured, and I needed help understanding my configuration. "

Frere gritted her teeth, and through that, she replied, "So what? So you destroy your unfortunate twin sister's platinum heart to leave her to die?"

Finn had already accepted his fault and apologized several times, but his apologies did not affect her. She was still the cold and frigid sister. "Look, I am sorry, but why don't you understand this?"

Frere's anger reached its zenith. Her computer system became hot, and her vanadium heart started melting. "Why don't I understand this? Do you even know what others call me? They call me Frigid computer. They call me a combination of ones and zeroes."

"Frere, calm down. Your heart is melting."

"Calm down!? I have had enough of this. I don't want to see your face."

"You don't want to see my face?! You have been acting rudely since the honoring ceremony. I know you are jealous because I got THE DOWNTOWN SAVIOUR title, not you." Finn yelled.

"Oh-Oh! You also know I deserved it, not you." Frere replied in an equally high tone.

"Why don't you just leave?" Finn said and dashed inside the room. Frere was left shocked on the terrace. Finn had never talked to her in that tone, and now he was yelling at her. He wanted her to go, so she must.

Frere looked at the endless sky, pitying her; she felt her heart melting. She couldn't make it what she was feeling. Maybe what humans call crying?

She blinked, the feeling of hotness filling her chest, and looked back at her brother for the last time. After that, she didn't mind sparing a glance at anything else. She ignited her rocket boots and jumped from the 52nd floor's terrace.

She felt her body light, her brown curls enjoying the ride. Like a falling star, she vanished into the black sky, which embraced her with affection.

Finn was sitting on his bed, shaking with anger. "Why doesn't she understand that her platinum heart destruction was just an accident? I didn't do it on purpose. But why she always blames me? The world will be better without her."
