"I will reprogram this robot for it to become useful."
Doctor Elliot started typing on his computer and connected my robot on it. Nasa loob kami ngayon ng mini-laboratory niya. He said na dito raw siya gumagawa ng reports at ibang plano niya sa government. The room is not really big dahil nasa likuran lang ito ng opisina niya. There's a lot of equipment inside na sa tingin ko ay sa polysteel din galing dahil meron itong mga logo.
"Do you have a name for this?" he looked at me while holding a tool.
"Wala akong maisip," sagot ko.
He nodded his head and went back on fixing my robot. Sa totoo lang, hindi naman talaga masyadong malaki ang robot na iyan, it has arms that could help me clean my room, throw some trash or monitor the temperature. I think the robot is made for assistance. Swerte lang si Xylex noong nakita niya iyan dahil hindi masyadong malaki ang damage.
"This will take half a day, I transferred some files on it para magkaroon ng laman ang memory niya. You should start thinking a name for this, I need to put it on its memory. "
"Sige doc, mag-iisip ako."
After some several minutes, bigla nalang gumalaw ang kamay ng robot ko kaya agad akong napasinghap dahil sa gulat. Doctor Elliot smiled and checked his computer again. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang ginawa niya pero masasabi ko talagang ang galing niyang mag-program ng robot. Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya the whole time dahil ang sarap niyang tingnan sa ganitong anggulo. He looks so serious, yet he still managed to make my heart flatter all the time.
Seeing Doctor Elliot from my perspective is truly a blessing that I could ever be thankful for. Of all the best mentors in this field, he was the only want who picked me. Nalaman ko kay Black na sila pala ang pumipili ng gagawin nilang studyante before magsimula ang training. I don't know his reason for picking me, but somehow I still am thankful kasi hindi niya ako pinabayaan at ngayon tinutulungan niya pa ako.
"I will give your robot a voice. Babae o lalaki? Anong gusto mo?" he asked at tiningnan ako.
"Ikaw," agad na sagot ko.
He blinked three times and he's a little bit shocked before I realized what I have said.
"I mean, ikaw... what do you prefer? Babae o lalaki?" pagdadahilan ko.
He heaved a sigh and shook his head. He's now smiling like something made him glad.
"Cora, this is your robot. You have all the privilege, pick whatever name or voice you prefer and give it to this little machine here. I am only here to help, you decide for the rest."
