Samantha's Hood.

"What do we do now?"
I asked no one in particular, standing before the enormous gate of the opulent building.
"Talking to you, Theo."
I looked down to my right at the American Akita. We've been standing there since few minutes ago and no idea popped into my shallow brain yet.
I had thought that as soon as I get to the gate of the building of the Billionaire, I would just knock on the door and enter through. But then, here we are, and I'm still struggling to place the appropriate thought of what to do.
"I guess we should go back and think of something. That's the appropriate thing to do, else we would make a fool of ourselves."
I was staring at the metallic giant who I ain't sure whether or not twas staring back.
"But there should be a gateman here at least. Or what do you think, Theo?"
Theo had been indifferent all along. He had been s
Big Basin Redwoods State Park ~Dare Ofegu~ "What's this place?" I have been meaning to be quiet all along but I just couldn't help it anymore. Who would had been able to help keeping quiet, when you're being led by a strange lady through the woods. Through thick barks, unusually tall trees, dry path stalked by fallen dried leaves and twigs. A kinda creepy forest. At first, I'd been quiet also because Theo was. I have always believed that if anything is wrong, a dog would be the first to figure it out. And since Theo had been indifferently playing along, I found no need to be jumpy. But now, I couldn't help it anymore. "It's been over 20 minutes since we've been walking through this place. Are you taking me for sacrifice or what?" She stopped walking at the accusations. She was at the forefront, myself and Theo behind her. Then suddenly, she spun around and cracked up, "Is that what your bl
A week Later.~Dare Ofegu~"Thanks for the food."I looked up from the several dishes to Sarah who was standing as usual beside the table to the left."It's my duty."She smiled and I resumed eating. I plunged the tip of the fork into the steak, holding down, for the knife to do its justice. I had a cut and took a bite."Why don't you join me? You've been very helpful. I won't want to treat you like a maid or stuff. You're like a mother to me, and no sane person watches his mother stand while he eats."She hesitated,"No, I'm fine. It doesn't really matter --""I insist."I interrupted and she gave up. She took two steps towards the table and pulled the chair before her. She settled into it, her palms on her laps."If I may say, young master."I dropped the cutlery at that. Believe me, I wasn't expecting such mushy approach. I shot her a gaze,"You're maki
Samantha's Hood.~Dare Ofegu~"Here we are, Theo."It felt like yesterday standing before the gate like this. And a week had just passed. I looked around me as though I was expecting to see someone walk out either the forest or the thick well painted wall.I looked down at Theo who had his dancing tongue caught between his paved jaws. He looked up at me and tossed his need."Of course, now."I muttered as though I knew what he had meant by that. But you know, twas usually a basic step in reasoning. Somethings are mainly tied to reflexes."As Sarah had explained."I took a deep breath then looked back at the gate."Come Theo."Theo hurried behind me as we walked towards the gate for legs."Here we are. Dare you've got this."I huffed and puffed sequential loops of air. Of course I had an idea of why I was jumpy, but then I could use a little lace
Same.~Dare Ofegu~"Pull yourself together, young man."A strange high-tech female robot built differently with pinpointed beautiful qualities of a typical model warned me, holding me in a choke and pressing my back to the nearest wall. Her metal palm hanging my legs in the air, I struggling for breath, as Theo barked and charged at her. I have no idea from where she came."Let him go, Imara."The woman who had been seated on the couch all along watching the drama let out.The high-tech robot let go of me and shot me a cunny smile. I wish I could punch her in the face, but then, was knocked back into reality as Kola hurried over to the woman to sit next to her."Stand there."Samantha held one of her fine sleek hands up at Kola and I felt a wave of satisfaction swept past me."Could either of you tell me what this show is all about?"She added and I walked through
Same. ~Dare Ofegu~ "Who are these?" The beautiful lady asked with such attitude, ogling both me and Kola. A lady with delicate features. 5"7, pretty in a weird but compelling way. Her hazel eyes matching her glazed hazelnut hair which complements her olive skin. Her petite figure completes the whole look, with her upturned nose and small pouty lips. She has a dimple, thick, busty enough and wholesome (not fat, not slender.) I couldn't place my thought for the next few moments as my eyes paced her high cheekbones, quite inviting than her mother's. I must be insane to be imagining nasty things at first sight. Not nasty things as having sex or stuff. But such thoughts like, THESE IS THE LADY I WANT TO PROTECT. THIS IS THE REASON I WAS CREATED. A quite mushy thoughts to me, but to her.... "What are you doing back home. I remember you telling me you still have three months to go because of your project."
A spaciously luxurious room. ~Samantha~ "You can't keep up this attitude." "You leave me no choice." She shot me a glance then looked away immediately. Twas hard to say whether or not twas an ogle or a compressed glare. But no matter how rude she tends to be, I still love her deeply. Who would quit loving her only daughter because of her nuances? "I'm still you mother, you should choose your words." "I didn't argue otherwise. Only that I can't keeping turning a blind eye. If I were blind, I wouldn't mind, but seeing all these repeat itself like some stereotypical headlines, I'll be insane to be mute." I puffed a loud sigh and walked away from the door. She was settled in a small couch opposite her king size bed. I walked to the bed and sat, crossing my legs. She had her Apple laptop on her lap. Most of her concentration on the fancy box. "Believe me, Ninny he's different." She loo
Same. In the lawn.~Dare Ofegu~"What brings you to the States?"Imara asked without looking at me. We were walking side by side and I could say that she has never taken me in her gaze through the course of the walk. I have no idea why not, probably because the robotic whirring would be rather uncomfortable for her, or because eyes contact doesn't really matter to a bot."Isn't it obvious? I came for Samantha."She turned her face for the first time, but her body still retained the posture as though she was looking at the front. How wierd and satisfying it seemed."The percentage of truth in your response is 42% percent. I don't do well with people who tell lies. If you want to be one of my users, you must be frank and sincere with me."I couldn't close my mouth as I watched her speak. I thought bots who could be that pecise and complicated were only limited to the movies. If I was told that I would sta
Samantha's Hood.~Ninny~"That woman won't quit choking me. I don't know what to do with her."Looking up from the PC, I felt like there was someone standing at the front my door in the hallway. I wanted to go check in the first place but hated to think that twould be that strange guy. I didn't want anything to do with him. Not when I'm here for the meantime or when I graduate from Oxford. Even if possible, I might not return to this house ever till he leaves. Because I would never be comfortable with him being around.Why? Of course isn't it that obvious? He's clearly a gold digger. Who wouldn't know that? I don't care what race or tribe he's from. All I know is that, he had chosen to come to my mom's luxurious apartment to bewitch her till she wills him all her property. And he should be very proud of himself. His Alakazam had canvassed for him to an extent. I guess he only needs finishing touches."But seriously."<
