[Completed] A Robot Become Human

Part 7

So it was true then. You weren't supposed to be alive. The mechanical heart only supports you for god knows how long, it helps you pump your already stopped beating heart. It was the only choice you had back then, or else you weren't here now.

"Yunho?"

You were relieved when you realised you were home. An actual home. On your bed with Yunho by your side.

The robot quickly turned to his side to face you in your morning glory. Your hair was disheveled but to him, you still looked beautiful nonetheless. "Good morning, my princess," His voice was so soothing, it would be selfish if you say you want to hear it all to yourself.

Your eyebrows raised at the nickname. Where did he learn to call you these?

Of course Yunho made an effort to watch the bored Korean dramas to know how to approach and act towards you better. He can't believe he finished all episodes within 2 days. You'll be proud if he tells you this.

Yunho shuffled closer towards your still sleepy form. You are so adorable like that and he's lucky at the thought of being the only one who can see you like this.

"I love you so much,"

His arms wrapped around your body. Bringing you closer to him. You snaked your hands to his back, searching for the bullet wounds and Yunho quickly noticed that.

He sighed into your hair. "Don't worry, I'm all patched up."

You hummed. His thumb was rubbing small circles on your back and boy, doesn't that feel so good.

Eyes become droopy again, you slowly slip into the dreamland.

The android was content when he heard your heartbeat slow down to a calming pace. His eyes went into x-ray mode to scan your inside. There was clearly a mechanical heart. He can't be wrong about it.

"Mingi!" Yunho shouted at the man inside the car. He saw the way your body was limping inside Yunho's arms and cursed. He swore you would literally throw yourself into the pit of fire for the robot.

"Get in!"

The journey to the hospital took forever. And Yunho grabbed the chance to ask a question.

"Hey, Mingi..."

Mingi hummed to answer his question. Eyes eyeing both of you from the mirror. You were leaning against Yunho's chest as the robot's arms held you tight.

"Are you aware of her heart?" The question came out as awkward as it could be.

Mingi sighed. "Her mechanical heart?"

"Yes."

"The doctors performed the surgery and asked for my consent before doing so. They said that was the only way to keep her alive." Mingi's grip on the steering tightened at the memories.

"Does she know about it?"

"Not yet. I still couldn't bring myself to tell her. And plus, she went to save you as soon as her eyes opened."

Yunho's eyes soften at the words. A small smile was on his lips. You really treat him like a human being. What was he thinking when he wanted to surrender himself to his fate earlier? You'll be sad if you know that.

"I'm sorry..." he whispered. Kissing the top of your head.

Crutches.

Is.

So.

Annoying.

You hated how you needed to rely on that stick to move around. When will your strength come back?
