Cindy's POV
I woke up early in the morning. It was almost 6. I got up and got freshen up. I changed my clothes and decided to walk around the park nearby. I locked the door and walked out of the apartment. I got out of the building and started to walk towards the park. The view of early morning is so beautiful. There is no crowd, no bustle, no rushing. Like the city is still in sleep. Yeah. I like this one better. This is like a calm and so peaceful period of the day here. No sounds just a soft morning breeze blowing. That's all. It was giving me a strange kind of peace of mind. I was feeling so relaxed and happy anyways. It was like I was breathing peacefully after after a long time. I took a deep breath hugging myself. I was feeling good after long time today without any reason. Though I was still upset about Stella's incident but still I was feeling good today.
Stella needs time to recover. I am hopeful that she will be our Stella again and that too very soon. Stella is not a weak girl. She will manage it. I wanted to go and meet her but doctor told us not to. She needs time to adjust with this situation. I can wait until she gets well.
I walked and entered the park. I kept roaming around randomly then sat on the bench there. I kept looking at people who were busy with themselves. Many of them were doing exercises in a group and most of them were senior citizens. Some kids came with their parents. I also found a group of youngsters with their bicycles cycling around. I don't know if it is really a good idea cycling like this in between the park. People will tell them anyways. I kept enjoying the views.
" Good morning." Someone said. I turned to see if that person was talking to me. I turned and found Mr. Winsdor standing a few feet away from me.
" Mr. Winsdor?" I asked weirdly. I didn't think we will meet again. He chuckled.
" That's not the answer of my question anyways. But it's ok." He said and sat next to me. " Do you know that guy?" He pointed someone sitting afar away from us. I tried to take a close look at that guy.
" I am not able to see his face clearly. Can't tell you if I know him or not." I said. " But why?" I asked him.
" Wait." He said. " Reben!!" He called someone.
I found a guy walking towards us but the style of his walking was very weird. I mean why is he walking like a robot?!!
" Matt!!" He said weirdly standing in front of us then looked at me like scanning me from head to toe.
" Hey!! Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked him and Mr. Winsdor chuckled.
" He is arranging informations in his brain about you." He said.
" He is weird. Is he your friend?" I asked him.
" You can say that." He chuckled. " Reben, this is Cindy Grace." He said.
" Nice to meet you, Cindy Grace." Reben said extending his hand toward me. I shook his head. He is a bit weird.
" Show us that picture that you have taken of that guy earlier." Mr. Windsor told him.
I thought he will pick out his phone and show us the picture but he started to unzip his hoodie. What the!!!! As soon as he finished unzipping the hoodie I found there were a screen in his chest like a little monitor fixed in his chest. What is this?!! Is this a ghost or an alien?!! I looked at it in horror. I was about to scream but Mr. Winsdor cleared my confusion before that.
" It's a robot. Humanoid." He said.
" Ahh...umm ... Oh...ok. ok... alright." I tried to calm down which I knew wasn't that easy.
Reben pressed some buttons around the monitor and showed me some pictures. But no. I couldn't recognize that guy. I thought may be Steve is following me but this guy is shorter than him. Steve is freaking tall. He is not Steve. I don't know if Steve has sent him or not. But it was not he himself. That was clear.
" No. I don't know him." I said.
" Oh, but he was following you from long. I was checking if Reben's functions were working properly now. Then I found that pictures and video clips. He is roaming around you. You should be careful. Girls are not safe around these days." He said. I nodded looking at the guy.
" Reben, one more round." He said and the robot zipped up the hoodie then ran out of there.
" From where have you bought this robot? It's really very helpful." I said. He chuckled.
" Bought?! I have made him." He said and I looked at him weirdly.
" No kidding." I narrowed my eyes.
" Why do you think like I am joking?" He asked me. " And I can say that you are not native. If you were then you would have known me." He said.
" Yes, I am American." I said. "But you really made him?" I asked him and he chuckled.
" Yeah. Do you have any doubt?" He asked me.
" Yes...I mean no." I said hesitatingly. He chuckled.
" Alright." He said.
" Does robot has to keep fit theirselves?" I asked him. " Why are you making him run like that?" I asked. He laughed.
" No, it's just to test his ability and capacity." He said.
" Very well. Robots are weird." I said to him.
" You can ask your friend. She has seen some more demos yesterday." He said chuckling. "God, she is really crazy."
" Chloe went to meet you yesterday?" I asked him.
" Yeah, she was quite angry and I learned some beautiful curses from her." He said.
" Oh, I thought she was going to kill you." I said.
" Yeah, she tried though." He said.
" What?!!" I asked.
He told me what happened yesterday. I looked at him weirdly.
" Do you have to push her buttons one by one?" I asked him.
" I mean I didn't want to but she gets angry without any reason and it's fun to irritate her." He said. " But I didn't know she is scared of lizard. I thought she is kinda not scared of anything. But I was wrong." He said laughing. I rolled my eyes.
" She is crazy but you are crazier than her." I said and he laughed again. I sighed deeply.
