EPISODE TWO

A familiar aseptic smell filled my nose trills as I gained my consciousness. It feels so cold.

As I open my eyes, the white ceiling welcomed my sight. I sat and leaned on the bed's headboard.

I looked around only to notice that the room I'm in is almost white and obviously a hospital's room.

I sighed heavily.

Wait.

The hospital?

How did I got here?

As far as I can remember, I was being chased by multiple assassins and was shot three numerous times. One at my shoulder, the other one is my left foot and lastly my waist that made me lose my consciousness.

I quickly turned my head on the part where I heard a suspicious beeping sound.

"Analyzing Situation. Situation analized."

A robot?

Let me rephrase that. A hot robot guy?

Hell.

It was staring at me deeply.

"Condition is in a stable state, she is now conscious. Commence run a test mode." He made a robotic sound and suddenly stopped.

"Are you alright master Hannelyne?" the robot asked me.

I'm freaking out, I wanna run away but every move I make I feel like my body is being cut in half.

I opened my mouth to say a word but all I can feel is my dry throat.

"W-wa-ter." I said stammering.

He immediately obeyed and within just seconds, it handed me a glass full of water.

I took the water from his hands and drunk immediately. As soon as I finished drinking, I handed him the cup.

"Are you now feeling a lot better master Hannelyne?" He tilted his head, still staring deeply at me.

I can't shut my mouth anymore, the questions in my head are giving me a headache.

"Who are you? What am I doing doing here? Wait, how did I get here? What happened? Why do you keep calling me your Master?Where are we?"

I panted hard after exclaiming every questions bothering me.

"Are you done now master?" He asked so I nodded in response.

"Do I have the permission to answer master?" He asked again.

I just nodded again. I think I'm tired again.

"Firstly, I am Haze, your personal robot guard and I was built by master Hanz to protect you. I was programed to stay by your side no matter what."

I blinked as I felt the side of my eyes sting.

Oh dad.

"One week ago y--" I butted in.

"What do you mean by a week ago?!" I shouted from the shock.

"Permission to answer." I quickly nodded.

"Yes, you were asleep for a week because of the serious injuries you have acquired during the incident."

My mouth was hanged open.

I slept. For. One. F×ck×ng. Week.

"Shall I continue?" He asked snapping me out from before I drown on my own thoughts.

"Yes, you may." I whispered as I touch my neck, my throat's dry again. I'm thirsty.

"You switched me on a while ago before you lost your consciousness, I believe that the assassins were chasing after you to kill you." He stopped.

I stared as he walked towards the water dispenser to get some water and walk right back near me to hand the water to me.

"I'm judging that you are thirsty Master for you were holding your throat." He said.

I took it from his hands and drink it.

"You have the consent to continue your explanation." I said immediately.

"And if I am asking you something , you don't need to ask for my consent because you already have." I added.

He nodded.

"You were unable to do something about it since you were unconscious and according to the manual sir Hanz put in my memory. I have the rights to act on my own to protect you. So I did."

So he saved me.

"I brought you to the nearest hospital to treat your wounds immediately. Don't worry about the bills for sir Hanz installed me and gave me my own money for emergencies. That is all." He said ending it.

I stared blankly at the wall in front of me while my brain is processing the informations handed by Haze. I returned my gaze to Haze as I wonder what happened to the assassins chasing after me.

" Haze." I called him.

" Yes master Hannelyne?"

"Just call me Hannelyne." I replied.

"Okay Hannelyne, is there anything you need to ask?" He questioned.

"What happened to the assassins chasing after me?" I asked as my hands trembled in fear.

I observed his every reaction as he held my hands and intertwined it with his.

"Pardon my actions Hannelyne but again, sir Hanz programed me to have a reaction for your every action." He explained and I nodded.

Just like Newtown's third law. Dad really knows me well.

"And for the question you asked me, please lower your voice miss Hannelyne for we are not sure if they are still following us. I will explain everything to you after you are discharged from this hospital. For now, please rest." He answered with a low voice and patted my head lightly.

" Okay then, please take care of me." I said as I felt tired.

I laid down on the bed and decided to rest. As I closed my eyes I felt his hands lightly caressing my hair until I fall asleep.

Let's just hope I can get out of here soon so I can go back and take care of everything.
