My ears swiftly paid attention at the drop of my own name.
But it didn't seem important.
Bored and trying to be expressionless, I leant back in my chair, as I drummed my fingers on the edge of the table cloth. I was engulfed in a rather loud 'conversation', which was soon to turn into some debate, about science I didn't understand. At all. As always, Mistress was sat oposite me, as a whole spectrum of colours appeared on her old face as she got more and more wrapped up in the arguement. In the glare of the dusk's brightness through the pannels of french door's, her earing's glinted as she turned, looking like two small cresents.
I smiled slightly at the hint of beauty.
The atmosphere gradually settled, and the raucous scrape of the chairs moving soon pierced our ears, as the guests slowly filed out of our home, quietly muttering their 'thank you's' and 'goodnight's' and click-clacking away. In no less than half and hour every visitor had been polietly ushered away.
Mistress and I were left alone in the hall, as she sipped on green tea, raising an eyebrow as I sighed loudly.
"Sophia?"
I looked up, as she placed her cup back on her saucer, creating a small, and elegant clink noise.
"Yes?" I answered her, curiously.
"I think it's time we discussed your future," she paused, waiting for me to say something, instead, I was silent. "Of course.." she continued, "You're different, Sophia. When you're older, you're never going to be normal. Get a normal job. Live by yourself. Understand?"
I nodded, slightly hurt that she thought that I couldn't cope.
"So..earlier this evening I was talking to one of the leading Proffessor's that created your, well, your captivity,"
"You INVITED him?" I raised my voice and stood up, furious that she'd even considered inviting him.
"Sophia, sit." Her voice grew sterner, "You didn't let me finish." I grunted, arms crossed. "He offered us an oppertunity. He offered you an oppertunity, Sophia. He said that maybe you could travel with him on his Science Show, around the world, showing the audiences what a scientific miracle you are. You're special Sophia. The world deserves to see you, you could be shown to all the big international lables, make heaps of profit. You could maybe do a show and-"
"What? Like some kind of CIRCUS FREAK?" I screamed, knocking over my seat, as I raged away. I turned to face her, "What do you take me for? AM I NOT A HUMAN?" I swore at her and stormed up two flights of stairs, barging past a maid, and stomping into my bedroom and slamming the door so hard that everything shook.
This was the last straw.
