"Tch, it's her again." "Why is she always on top?" "That girl is acting like she is the best, not talking to anyone like that, being so arrogant." "Hey, I heard that a senior who used to be friends with her doesn't talk to her anymore since she gets bullied for it. I wonder if we try, would we be bullied, too?" 

Putting up my headphones, I slowly tune out the noise as I walk past the gathering of children who come to see their grades on the board with friends. I only came here because it was the way to the front of the school. As I walk past the other, I come to a stop as I look forward to seeing a group of children in front of me.

Tilting my head a bit, I saw that most of them were a bit on the older side, probably a grade above me. Though they aren't looking at me, but rather at someone else, I dodge them and make my way toward the gate to actually sit on a bus, I open up my laptop to work on something I have been stalling for a while, generating 3d map using the data gathering, since I still don't have a physical body of Haro yet, I couldn't have a proper test so I have been keeping this in the back of my mind, but since I will have to work on it eventually, I decided to get rid of it now.

I hate doing anything 3D-related, it was annoying.

Just as I started to boost up my software, I suddenly heard a loud screaming noise, like a crazy fan seeing their idol.

The fact that it goes past my Headphones is astonishing. I mean, I asked for this since it tunes out most noise, leaving me to hear next to nothing.

Looking out, I saw 2 boys with ashen gray hair get inside a car. A group of female students were yelling something that I didn't understand.

Somehow…I feel like I met those 2 before…no not possible, but, there is something familiar about those 2…

Huh…Well, nothing I can do about it, let's just focus back on my work.

"Yoha! I am back!" Mama yells out from the door, and as she kicks it open, I look over from the living room to see her holding a lot, and a lot of boxes. Putting down my laptop, I walk over to her and help take away some of the boxes that she holds.

"Phew, thank you, dear. Man, she is still as kind as ever." Mama said as she wiped out the sweat from her head as she put down her coat on the coat hanger, while I stared at various boxes.

There are 4 boxes in total, 1 small, and the rest big, but the weight on it was actually quite light, to the point that I could even hold 2 big boxes. Well, I was struggling a bit so I quickly put it down.

Mama seemed to notice my gaze as she let out a smile, "Curious about this, aren't you? Well, I have good news for you. These 4 boxes are all for you!" she said as she lightly patted my head.

"Well, come on, help me get it on the table." I nod to her request and pick up the 2 big boxes, it seems Mama has so little strength since she struggles to even hold the remaining 2 boxes. When we put all the boxes down, mama settles on the sofa, panting as she knocks on her back.

"Mama, you are not that old yet," I said as I sat down next to her, she flinched a bit before laughing.

"Ahaha, right right, I'm still not an old woman yet… Anyway, come on, go open that small box first." I did as she asked, and opened the small box first, only to be thoroughly disappointed and disgusted at the content.

Mama must have seen my disgusted face since she was laughing so loud that I think even the Ode couple would be able to hear. The things inside this are Medicine, the usual medicine for me to take.

And one more medicine for some reason, I picked up the bottle to clearly see the bright orange pill inside it, there was no label, so this made me even more suspicious.

I look at Mama to find the answer but she just stares at it before quickly taking it away from me. "Sorry, sorry, it seems she mixes your medicine with mine. Well, what are you waiting for, open the rest of them."

Mama takes the med back into her pocket, urging me to continue opening the box, I look at her suspiciously, Mama is healthy, there is no visible illness that I could see, though I'm not a doctor.

"You are not ill, are you?" I ask.

"Nope, never been healthier in my life," she said with a smile, so since she didn't want to talk about it, I decided to drop the question and continue opening the boxes.

The first box I opened contained…arm? 2 robotic arms along with a manual as well as the blueprint on what kind of material it was…

Ah, this is just like what I requested, it has been so long that I forgot, quickly, I opened up the rest of them, in the second box was the model, and in the third box was the mini-computer.

The spec is nothing much, just above my laptop but it is necessary, so I can run the AI properly.

Though it didn't seem to already be assembled for me.

"This is what I requested back then," I said, looking over the blueprint, the main body is made of Polyethylene that is coated with a layer of Nanovate the thickness of 3 human hair. So it was sturdy and easily able to hold the weight of a car.

4 hatches for the arm and leg as I requested, the leg is already building, and it seems there is an extendable tube for pushing out Air so it could move around in space, it seems I missed something so they added it since I never asked for since they have added the absorption and fusion unit of dark oxygen, the compact one so it won't be able to make much but well, it would have a limited supply of oxygen in case of being lost in space.

As for the arm, it is made with thermoplastic elastomer, which is quite an adaptive material, able to both bend and retract while still able to maintain its original shape. The finger is made of silicone rubber.

Well…now that leaves me the problem of assembling it myself.

"I won't help you, you know? I think this stuff is easy enough for you to do, they have both the blueprint and manual for you to use, also this is…no never mind. Well, then, have fun. Mama is going to watch some TV while you build your toy."

With that said, mama just opens the television and watches some dramas…

Looking over at the Parts all resting comfortably on the table, the only thing I could do was sigh…

"Mm…This…should work, right?" Looking over at the half-assembled Haro, I decided to do a test run, to see if it worked. "Well, no pain no gain, isn't it? The battery is already charged up too."

Just as I was running the electricity through the Robot, I suddenly heard an unpleasant sound, without a thought, I quickly dropped the electric current running through it, but it was too late, the computer blew up suddenly, and I reacted with instinct, using my hand to protect my face while ducking down, I feel a sharp pain on my left arm, making me scream out a little.

Hitting the ground, I grabbed my hand, and slowly, as something warm dripped down toward it, when I looked down, I saw a piece of metal plug into my left arm, and bright red blood slowly dripped from the tip.

Ah…this is bad, the mini PC is all blown up, how long do I have to wait for another one, besides that, is the body ok? Is my computer ok? Ah, man, this sucks. 

Well, guess I should stop the bleeding first-

"Yoha!" Mama stormed into the room and her face was that of absolute shock as she looked at the mess that was Haro then at a piece of metal that was still in my left arm, and I looked at it without much interest. "Are you hurt? Is there anywhere else?" Mama asks hurriedly.

"No, It didn't hurt much now, Sorry about destroying that PC, Mama. I should be more careful with it." I apologize to her, as I look around to find something to stop the bleeding.

But to my surprise, a sudden sharp pain was felt on my cheek, the place I looked to before was now the other.

I was confused at what just happened, looking over at Mama, her hand was a bit red as at rest on her side, her eyes had so much emotion, anger, worry, confusion, dissatisfaction, disappointment, and…guilt.

"Yoha," she calls out my name as her hands rest on my shoulder. "You have nothing to apologize for, it is my fault for not staying with you, I should have been here to supervise you and keep you from harm but I failed."

The hands that rest on my shoulder slowly envelop me, "Sorry, I'm sorry…" Suddenly, something warm leaked onto my back, Mama was…crying.

"Why are you crying…? It's nothing, you know? It didn't hurt-"

"I'm sorry." Her words cut me off, and as she continued to mutter I'm sorry I'm sorry, her voice dried over and turned hoarser and hoarser. 

I don't know what to do, I never saw Mama cry before, so I don't know what to do, I never cried much as a child too so…I don't know what to do…

Suddenly, something stirred in my heart, the word Comfort was screaming inside my heart so loud I felt like my head was filling with them. Without thinking, I used my hand to slowly hug her. I could feel a flinch from Mama but I didn't care much.

"Sorry, Mama…I will be more careful…so…don't cry." That was all I could say, but it seemed to work, as she hugged me even tighter and stopped muttering. After a little while, she seemed to come to her senses as she let go of me and picked up her phone.

"I will call for an ambulance and find something to stop the bleeding, ok? Stay here and be a good girl." Then Mama walks off, as she goes to make the call and find the first aid kid.

"Good girl…If I…be a good girl…will Mama won't cry again?" I ask myself, as slowly, something in my heart stirs, it seems to be as if it is trying to say Yes. I follow my heart, and that makes Mama stop crying…so If I am a good girl, Mama won't cry anymore.

"That's right…if I am a good girl Mama won't cry…so she won't leave, if I am that then we will be together…So I have to be good… just like back then, just like how it used to be…"
