He sat still on the couch and she glanced at him time to time from the kitchen where she was preparing a small snack. Lunch time had already passed and she wasn't in the mood to eat a whole meal.

"You said.. you need to eat?" She voiced from the kitchen to the robot. He didn't budge from his seat and continued to stare at the TV screen. "Namjoon," he finally looked towards her. "Do you want to eat something?"

"Something dry will do." He said, his head then turned back to the TV as he watched Nat Geo with interest and amazement.

She looked around the cabinets of food repeating the words he said, pulling out a packet of Digestive biscuits.

She walked out with the food and sat next to Namjoon. He sat so still, his eyes taking in data about hyenas and how smart they are. She kept the plate on his stiff lap and started eating her sandwich.

"It's interesting, isn't it?" She asked and he replied with a faded "yes."

"Let's watch some.. human stuff. Since you want to learn about it more."

"But I want to watch hyenas."

"No." She took the remote from his side and switched the channels.

Action movies? Nope, she doesn't want him to turn into Terminator or somthing. Avengers? He probably wouldn't understand anything half way. Normally like everyday, she stopped on dramas.

My Secret Romance was replaying, a cliche drama right but she didn't want to not watch.

"Who are they?" He asked.

"That's Sung Hoon, and that's Song Ji Eun." She said, pointing at the screen.

His half mechanical brain cells did their research and he took a minute to know they are actors, their roles being Cha Jinwook and Lee Yoomi in this drama called My Secret Romance.

"Information acquired." She eyed him weirdly before letting her eyes back on the TV. He picked up a biscuit and took a small bite, smaller compared to Jieun's, before chewing and digesting.

"Doesn't that hurt?" He pointed to the screen when the two leads were making out with each other.

"Kissing?"

"No, they're eating each other." Jieun snorted, laughing loudly after, her hand slapping her own thighs. "That is cannibalism."

"Ahaha!! Noo!! It's called kissing, it's a way to express love and affection, or just lust."

"The only kissing my data has information on was on the cheek or hands. Not lips. Also there are hugs to express affection, why would they do this kid of harsh kissing on the mouth?"

"You have so much to know," she chuckled. "You feel closer to the person like that."

"I want you to show me." He said and looked at her, the look in his eyes never change, and he looked serious.

She can't deny her heart skipped a beat or two, her eyes widened and face reddened.

"S-show you what?" She stuttered, her voice little.

"The things I need to know." He simple said, looking at the TV when Jinwook was in his office with Yoomi, then look back. "What other forms of expressions are there? My data is very basic, I see."

"Oh," she sighed. "There are many. We'll go through them together, slowly." She looked at her empty plate, and secretly felt sad.

"Since we are talking about it, show me some forms of expressing affection except the ones I know." He turned towards her completely and asked for her attention by holding her hand. "There's kisses on the cheeks, hugs, compliments, and?"
