Eugeo's POV
21st of April 2025
8am

I walk out of my room holding a book. When I get near to Kazu's room and sees the door opened, I can't help but feel worry. So, I stop in front of it and see him reading a book in his bed. Did he let the door opened because he's afraid...?

"Kazu." I call him not moving from the door.

He turns his head to me, "Oh hey, Eugeo. Come on in." He says closing the book and put it on the nightstand.

I walk into the room and realize that there are holograms screen flying around. "I see that you've turned this room into the future." I say pulling the armchair to the side of his bed.

"I got bored." He says with a shrug.

I look over him and see lots of paper scattered around the bed. "What'cha making now?"

"Oh, these? These are just preparation. I don't have any plan on making them in near time." He says with a smile.

"I see. Well, I'm going out to the garden. Wanna come? It'd be good for you, you know. To have some fresh air. Don't want to make you anxious, but-"

"I know, I remember. The trial on Wednesday, which means two days from now." He cuts in.

"Yeah, you're right..."

"Anyway, I take that offer. Thank you." He picks up the white stone-like thing from the nightstand and slides it under him.

"Think of any name for it?" I ask as I watch it transform into a wheelchair. It floats to the floor as I stand from my chair. He takes his book before going to the door.

"Not at the moment. I never name any of my inventions. I just sold it to anyone who willing to buy it and let them name it." He says as I follow him out of his room. "But, I think I should start naming it. Since I don't have any plan to sell any of them now."

"May I suggest a name?" I say walking beside him.

"Sure. I'm all ears."

"EC."

"EC? Let me guess, elevated chair?" He asks raising his eyebrows.

"Yup. At first, I wanted it to be EW, elevated wheelchair, but it's ambiguous."

He chuckles, "You're right about that." I open the door to the garden open before letting him float out first. "I think, I'll take that suggestion." He says while I walk down the stairs. "Thanks."

"You're welcome." I say.

We go to the gazebo near the golf field. "Ne, Eugeo. Can you help me with something?"

"Sure, anything."

"Can you help me take off this bandage on my cheek?."

I stand up from the chair and walk up to him. "Didn't Mom just put it this morning before she left?"

"She did. But, it's getting a little bit bothersome. And she did say it's not that bad anymore." He says as I carefully peel it off. "Just pull it off."

"There's no way I'm going to do that." I say before I peel it off completely. "Done." I look at the bruise and yes, it's not that bad anymore.

After that, we continue to read the books that we brought. "Does Alice rarely stay at home?" He asks breaking the silence.
