"Welcome to your new home, Michelle." Was the last thing I remember hearing a person say besides what I say in my head, I'm really lonely here, what do you expect?
I don't understand why they sent me here. I haven't done anything wrong, is it because I'm different? Because I don't have two full arms? Is that why where ever it went before they took me here every body would scream for help? I am as kind as anyone else, I am still a human. I still have a brain, a heart, a body, (which works perfectly,) I don't understand. "Why must they run?" I whisper to myself, and then I hear a door open. I am not sure why anyone would come here and it's not time for them to deliver my food... "MICHELLE GET OVER HERE!" I hear a loud voice say. "Yes sir," I respond politely. I run over there immediately.
"Yes?" I say as loud as I can, which is not that loud. "This is Vivian, she will stay here with you." As soon as he says that she will be with me I ran behind the man to hide because I am not that comfortable around new people
anymore. But then I peek out and look at her, she looks like me with two arms...strange. I then thought to myself about where I may have seen her before but no. I reach out to shake her hand, but she just looked at my hand and stood still, she shows no movement. What? I tap her hand, it feels like my mechanical arm "Why does she not move...and why does her hand feel like metal?" I ask "That arm is mechanical like yours, only, you can't see it." He replies. "Go show Vivian around please Michelle." "Yes sir" I respond again politely.
