How does it feel?

A second chance

       "Mandy!"

       "Hello, Moxy!" Mandy greeted Moxy with a smile on her face.

       "How did everything go?" pink doll asked enthusiastically.

       "As always, everything is fine," Mandy smiled again.

        Looking at these «sugar» girlfriends, Lou frowned and hastened to leave the street with the portal. Sometimes he came to this damned square, without knowing why. But he always left very quickly. Lou walked past colorful houses and trees that now filled Institute of the perfection. After the portal was repaired, the first thing all the dolls did - reconstructing the Institute. Of course, the dirtiest job was given to Lou. This was understandable, because all this happened because of him. Lou worked for several days, and then Mandy and Ox insisted on letting him go and providing some kind house. Of course, no one will return his house in the city center. He was assigned a house at the end of the city - near the ocean. The house certainly couldn't compare with Lou's past house, but it wasn't bad either. At least there is a roof over his head.

       "At least there is a roof over my head..."

       "Seriously? Now I'm saying such things?"

       "..."

       Lou continued on his way. The path wasn't short, but it wasn't matter. After all, as long as he has a secluded place, he is ready to go as many as needed in order to get there. Speaking of the gait, now Lou walks with his arms crossed behind his back and looking under his feet. He raises his head and looks around really rarely.

       Lou didn't know what to do now. The path to the Big World is still closed for him, and it will never opens. Puppets are now taught by robots. It turned out that they are doing Lou's job no worse. Of course, they couldn't understand the real feelings of dolls, but the feelings of dolls didn't need to be taught, dolls had to be taught the rules of behavior. The disciples now, of course, were both ugly dolls and beautiful ones.

       "I was replaced by robots..."

       Lou grinned.

       "Is there anyone who needs me?"

       Lou raised his head, and all the laughing and smiling dolls around suddenly frowned. Lou lowered his eyes again and quickened his pace.

       "That's right ..." Lou smiled sadly. "No one. I have never been perfect. And never will. Therefore, no one needs me."

       Lou reached his home. He out of habit looked around. A small fence separated the city from the beach. Of course, it was colored. Dolls almost never used the beach, and apparently, they won't be there for a long time, because in Uglyville it is much more "interesting". Lou went down the white wooden steps and stepped on the sand. A couple of meters away there was a small one-room house. The only one house that hasn't been painted. The house was small, but it was enough for Lou. He quickly adapted to new living conditions. Lou sighed, and headed toward the ocean. The waves of the sea never raged. They calmly raises and fells. Now that was the only thing that reassured Lou. He went to the ocean and took a deep breath of fresh air.
