Episode 19

"I will ask you again for the last time, WHO ARE YOU?

"What do you mean by WHO ARE MY?" Steve asked, even though he was scared of what Chelsea might do, he decided to act strong. Maybe she doesn't know anyway

She looked at him for a while and smiled, he's trying to play smart not knowing that he can't outsmart her

"Then how do you explain this," she said showing him his medical results and some other files

He stood up from the chair and went on his knees immediately, he's already busted if anyone else gets to know about this he doesn't think they will ever forgive him

"Look Chelsea, I can explain, is not what you think O...I didn't mean to do it," Steve said immediately

"Can't believe you lied to the people that loved you with all their heart, start talking but don't even think of lying to me," she said with a dangerous straight face

Steve stayed calm for a while, thinking if he should tell her the truth or not since she has find out, what was he thinking when he saved Mr.s Hillary in the first place, since everyone believes that he's a robot he needs to act like one

"Ok...ok...fine, what did you want to know?" Steve asked

"All of it," Chelsea replied

"It all started back home in Japan, My real name is Derek Bush and we went to the same middle school together. I loved her then but didn't know how to tell her, since she was one of the hottest girls in school. everyone wants to be her friend... I tried all I could to get to her but it seems to be impossible because she never gave me attention, suddenly she stopped coming to school. I was helpless back then cause I was secretly in love with her, I wanted to go to her and tell her how I felt but her home is always guarded. Until one day I went to visit my uncle in his robot factory and discovered that Mr. Smith wanted a robot as a companion for his daughter

" I saw it as an opportunity and asked my uncle if I could go instead, at first he refused but after much pressure and pleading from me, he reluctantly agreed..... He taught me many things I need to know about a robot, he insight a system control in my ears so it will help me in times of trouble like this, after a week and three days I was ready. He told me to make sure I don't get caught, I agreed because I learned everything perfectly

"See, I didn't mean to do it, I know I was stupid and a jerk but I only wanted to be with her and that's the only opportunity, if you could just let me out of here I promise to fix this, I will go back to Japan and forget none of this ever happen," Steve said already in tears

"Why should I believe you?" Chelsea replied gently, she can't possibly believe this guy. Who knows if he just made all this thing up

Of course, when they told her there was an emergency, she didn't expect it to be Steve. Lucas called his father(paps not Smith) and asked for help since Chelsea is one of the brightest girls in their gang and Lucas needs it urgently so he has to send Chelsea cause she knows a lot about computers

Getting to know that Lucas and Steve was the one that called for her seem kinda surprising, but she decided to do her job anyway, that's how she found out about Steve

"I just asked a question," she said to Steve who was still wondering what to do

"I promise I will go back, please don't just tell them. I will do anything you want," Steve pleaded looking all innocent

"These people deserve to know the truth and you will tell them," Chelsea said and stood up from her chair

"Wait... What... I can't do that, am sure she will hate me for the rest of her life, please don't make me do this" Steve replied as he rushed to touch Chelsea but a glare from her stopped him

"That's the consequences of your actions, I think we are done here, you have five days," Chelsea said and almost immediately Sandra rushed in, seeing Steve alive gives her so much joy and happiness

To her, he's a robot and she has been praying for the Gods of robots not to let anything happen to him

"Oh my Steve, thank goodness." She said and rushed to hug him immediately

"Thanks alot Chelsea, I thought he will take more than a month to be repaired but thank goodness you did it in four days, am so happy," she said and went over to Chelsea and hugged her also

"He's all good now," Chelsea replied as Sandra left her and went to Steve

"I can see that, but why is he acting weird?.... Steve, are you alright?" Sandra asked wondering why he haven't said anything since she got here, if it was normal days he would have said something stupid

"Huh, oh yeah...yeah am fine just recovery symptom," Steve lied, he was still battling with what Chelsea said, how can he possibly tell her the truth

"Alright let's go then, since you are awake you need to follow us to see Mrs. Hillary, dad said we need to see her since Jason is his business partner," she dragged Steve out

AT THE HOSPITAL

"She has been discharged sir, you are free to take her home now," the doctor said after doing some paperwork

"Thank you very much doc, if there is anything I will let you know," Jason said as he moved over to his mum on the bed

The doctor walked out, he stroked her hair gently and smiled

"Hey buddy, the car is ready to let's get going," Lucas said as he walked into the ward, not long after Lucy entered carrying a bag

"Were you two together?" Jason asked looking at them

"Nope, was with the boys and why did you ask?" Lucas replied

"Oh, thank goodness," Jason mumbled under his breath but mum heard him clearly since he was sitting close to her, she smiled and looked up at Lucy

"What did you bring for me today?" She asked, Lucy has been visiting her every day to make sure that she eats something, not like she doesn't have a special chef but Lucy volunteered to do it

"How about you Guess," Lucy replied with a smile

"Am too old to guess, why not tell me already," Mr.s Hillary said softly

"And who said you are too old, I will make you my girlfriend if you don't mind, hey Lucy, don't look at me she's only a temporary girlfriend," Lucas said and everyone burst into laughter

"Hell no, she can only be my girlfriend," Jason said trying to take Lucas's hand away from his mum

"Oh... Common Jason, you can't possibly date your mum, allow me. I will take good care of her just like I took good care of Mr.s Sophia and my baby here," Lucas replied looking at Lucy

Jason stopped laughing Immediately as his face tightened, He decided to change the topic since he was getting irritated by it

"How about you eat your food mu before it will get cold," Jason said slowly, Mr.s Hillary looked at him and noticed the change

"Are you both dating," Mr.s Hillary asked looking at Lucy and Lucas

"Not at all," they both replied at the same time before looking at each other

"One would think you both are," she added and smiled, she's so cute, "she mumbled

"You're cheating," Lucy shouted as Lucas won again, Jason watched from where his feeding his mum

"I will be back mum, I need to use the restroom," Jason said when he can't take it anymore

"Just play one more," Lucas Said and giggled

"I said quite, you are a cheat, how can you win all the games without letting me win even one," Lucy said and moved away from him

"Who won?" Mr.s Hillary asked

"Me of course,"

"That's because he cheated," Lucy replied, they were still arguing that they didn't know when Mr. Smith opened the door

"And who is cheating who?" He said immediately after he entered, he heard their noise from outside

They turned their gaze at the door and met M.r Smith and his family

"M.r Smith, you came," Lucy said calmly

"Of course, Jason is a very good boy and he's also my partner, I need to pay them a visit," he said and walked fully into the ward

That voice! Why does it sound so familiar," Mr.s Hillary thought as she turned slowly to see the person since her back was facing the entrance then her eyes landed on Mr. Smith who was also staring

"Hillary?" M.r Smith called as his eyes wide then his jaw dropped

"Smith, is that..... that you?" Mr.s Hillary asked beyond shocked
