rA9 - The Story Where It All Began

Mission 4: Today

------

Connor's led return to its normal light blue as he opened his eyes to retrace the path they'll go after encrypting the whole video, with a huff, he stood up from his chair before scanning to where Hank is.

"I guess we are going today?"
Hank said, popping his head from the bedroom, looking to where Connor is.

"If possible, but i would recommend that you should be resting today for the long travel ahead."
Connor said, sitting now next to Sumo who crawls to the sofa, grunting a bit as the dog relax on the soft cushion of it.

"Why?is the place away from detroit? I thought it was erm..to that douchebag's place?"
Hank said, pulling up his stocked clothes on the drawers, picking up the least decent clothes.

"No, i even thought about it was in Elijah Kamski's place, but when i mapped the place, it was over the border of Canada."
Connor said, patting Sumo carefully, as he wonder what was Hank doing with his old clothes.

Hank groans in disgust as he pick the last two clothes that he pulled on his drawers, yet he walk out with them on his arms hanging, before showing it in front of Connor.

"This might not look good on ya, my clothes are way too much unfashionable for your style."
Hank said, feeling a bit embarrassed at the clothes he will hand to Connor.

"Are you giving this to me Lieutenant?"
Connor said, taking the striped polo shirt from Hank.

"Yeah, but i was thinking of changing my mind to just hand this to you, this things are as old as the owner.."
Hank said, smiling a bit at Connor as he admire the piece of clothing.

"Thank you very much Lieutenant, i will use this with care."
Connor said, looking up to Hank, smiling to him.

"This...this isn't enough, stand there, we are going shopping."
Hank said, throwing the other shirt on the sofa,then going back to the bedroom to change.

Connor tilt his head in confusion as the older man scurry to the bedroom drawers.

"The clothing that Cyberlife provide me is fine as it is Lieutenant, why insist buying for me?"
Connor said, led turning yellow in his confusion.

"Don't be like that dumbass, that Markus got his own style, i wont be lettin ya down when it comes to that."
Hank said, as he grab his keys and bag, before closing the bedroom door shut.

"I appreciate the concern but there is really no need for me to get an item of clothing."
Connor said, standing up to follow Hank towards the door.

"Yeah yeah, i know, i know you, smartass, but think of it as a thanks, for savin' my ass all the time, for bein patient of my attitude, and for being a friend."
Hank said, patting Connor on the back in a manor of comforting him.

"Okay,Hank."
Connor said, smiling to Hank with gratitude of being a father-like figure to him.

"Come on now, no sappy moments, today we go shoppin!"
Hank said, laughing as he walk outside, breath fog because of the winter weather.

As Connor and Hank look around the city, of which now operate normally, and some of the humans accept the reality of androids as beings that should be treated equally, yet some stores are still closed due to dwindling population of humans in the city.

"There is a shop nearby the town's plaza that still sells men's clothing in a much cheaper prize."
Connor said, scanning the place when they got out of the car where they parked it.

"You can pick the store where we can buy stuff."
Hank said, placing both of his hands inside of his pocket for warmth.

Connor nods to Hank, walking towards the store he was saying.
