Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

  "You don't have to say anything. Go back to your post." She opened the car door and entered, leaving the guards stupefied.

Why can't you notify us that the car is here to see you? Why make us look stupid. The guards wanted to complain, but they swallow their misgiving, going back to their post.

Inside the car, the young pretty woman looked at the young man beside her with a slight smile while trying to hide it. "Why do you like to make everything difficult for me?" She pouted.

"I don't understand. What do you mean?" The young man avoids the piercing gaze and commands the car to move.

"Don't pretend you don't understand what I'm saying. You could have told me you're coming and I won't look clumsy in the presence of everyone." 

  'This going nowhere.' He thought.

"Sorry for that. I thought it is high time to know you better. Also, we should spend some time away from our work." He looked at her.

>>Your brain is still functioning correctly. I thought you keep on the unnecessary argument.

'Did my brain ever cease working?'

>>Don't make me laugh. Should I jog your brain so that you can remember?

'Forget about it.'

"Since you have apologized. I will forget about it." She smiled. "So, where are we going."

"Secret"

She looked at him for a few seconds before she decided to wait for everything to unveil itself. Seeing that she didn't bother him to tell her the location of their destination. It surprises the young man. He knew how inquisitive the lady could get when she didn't know what going on around her.

After 20 minutes, the black stopped in front of a beautiful building while both the young man and woman came out of the car. The young woman looked at the building in front of her with wide eyes.

She wanted to visit this area for long, but her financial status won't allow it. But now, she looked at the young man beside her with an appreciative smile.

"Why are you looking like that?" The young man asked.

She giggled and said "Nothing" however, the smile on her face never diminished.

"Let go inside."

A white boat sailed on the sea as two young people sat on the deck of the boat enjoying the peaceful scenery of the sea. The gentle wind blew their hair over their shoulder while the tide echoed frequently. They looked at the reflection of the sun on the sea with a light smile on their face while holding a cup of wine. These two are Emma and Amanda.

"This is beautiful," Amanda declared, looking at the fishes.

"Yeah. It is."

"I didn't expect both of us to come from Beta Continent."

"Not that surprising. Thango is not that populated. It is those that come from Beta that set up most of the Cities. The proper citizen of Thango are quite few."

"Yeah. But that was a long time ago. However, you and I move to Thango in recent years." She looked at Emma while the smile on her face disappeared, replaced with a hint of sadness.

Nodding his head. "I came to Thango when I was 15." He exhaled, gulping his drink.

"Wow, I came ahead." She gave an abrupt laugh. "I and my mother came to Thango when I was 10"

"I can't imagine how the change would have affected you, then."

"Yeah…" She drank her wine, looking at the horizon. "We could barely survive…. We have to change… 3 cities before we finally settle in Vulture…" Sniffing. "All manner of evil things happens to us… teaching us the way of Thango." She took another gulp.

Emma stressed his hand across the table and held her hand. "Everything is in the past now. The thing is… we survive." He smiled.

She sniffed. "Yeah. It's in the past…" She looked at Emma seriously. "But I would have my revenge."

"That… I agree." He nodded. "Oh, common now. Let forget about the sad memory and enjoy ourselves."

  "You're right. Let enjoy ourselves." She took a bite of her meat. "What do you like to do?" She looked into Emma's eyes.

"Everything"

Hmm

What do you mean by everything? You must have something specific that you love doing."

"Yes, I know, and that's everything and anything. As long it interests me. I'll love doing it."

Amanda opened her mouth, but words won't come out. She shook her head. "You've changed a lot. Not just physically. But I mean everything. It kindda difficult to believe you are the same fatty that comes to our restaurant."

"What made you say so. I only lose the fat, nothing else." He shrugged.

"Previously, all most everyone in Desert street knew your love for debauchery life is nothing to compare."

'That's the previous owner of the body, not me.' He shouted in his mind. 'Sighed. Anyway, that's already gone' 

>>Yeah. That got me confused as well. Your change is spontaneous. I can't fathom where everything you knew is coming from.

Emma ignored Lily. "That why I said I'm interested in everything and anything as long, it interests me. When I live the life of debauchery. It interests and I live it. But I soon get tired of it which made me leave and change my lifestyle."

"So, you're telling me. If you got tired of your current life. You'll switch, right?"

Emma digs into his food. "Probably."

Hearing the short answered, stupefied Amanda. She dropped her cutlery and looked at Emma with widened eyes. 'When I thought you've changed and become dependable. But you shattered the thought. Sighed.'

Seeing Amanda gawked expression. Emma stopped eating. "What!"

"Why are you so unreasonable and undependable?" Amanda blurted subconsciously. 

Emma kept quiet for a few seconds before he started laughing hysterically. Amanda looked at the laughing Emma and wondered what made him laugh like that. After a couple of minutes of laughing, tears hanged at the corner of his eyes. He stops laughing, taking a deep breath, adjusting his seating position.

"What made you laugh like that." Amanda furrowed.

"Your word." He gulped his wine, wiping the tears from his eyes. "Calling me unreasonable and undependable made me laugh. Just because I said I'll change my lifestyle if I got tired of it"

"Is it funny?"

"Yeah. It's quite funny." Emma shook his head. "I won't change my lifestyle unreasonably. What I meant is that… I can change what I am currently working on… hubbies and behavior. If it affects me negatively. I won't hesitate to dispose of all these things." He paused and stared at the sea of waters. 

"Working as an underdog for mafia boss or organization needs you to do some certain things to survive. And one of those things is living a debauchery life." He announced with a straight face. 'This is nonsense, is it believable?' He wondered.

Listening to Emma, the frown on Amanda's face disappeared. 'So that's it.' She breathes a sigh of relief. 

"That's good to know. You scared me with your unreasonable answered."

"Why are you scared?"

"Because this is not able you anymore. Hundred of people are working for you currently. And if one day you behaved unreasonably. What do you think will happen to them?"

"Or happens to you, right?" Emma looked straight into her eyes.

Watching Emma looking straight into her eyes made her blushed, averting her gaze. Seeing this, Emma chuckled. "I understand your fear. But you can relax. I won't jeopardize what I have been working on… or you for something else."

Hearing this, Amanda's heart raced. She couldn't gather the courage to look at Emma's face. Rose blossom in her heart. But she tried to hide it. 

"Talking is easy. Let wait and see." She stood and walked to the edge of the boat, exhaling with a radiant smile on her face.

"So, you don't trust me." Emma held his heart, pretending to be heartbroken.

>>Who would trust you? She is not the first not to trust you. Did you forget those twins? 

'Why are you trying to destroy my righteous image?'

>>I currently don't see you having any image.

"It not a matter of trust or not. This is the first step we've taken…. There are lots of steps to be taken. And we need to tread carefully… During these steps, trust will manifest itself."

"So, you're telling me I should have tested you in various steps before I place my company in your hands." Emma stood and walked beside her.

Hearing Emma's sudden outburst, Amanda turned her head and looked at Emma, not knowing what to say. Her thought froze, the wind suffocate are breathing not able to blink an eye… Seeing her like this, Emma chuckled, saying "That was just a joke… Relax."

Amanda turned her head and looked at the sea, inhaling. Numerous thoughts flashed through her mind in that split of seconds. It's not that she doesn't trust Emma, but his unreasonable words startled her, made her blurting out words without thinking.

An awkward silence descended between them while both looked at the sea, deep in thought.

"It's not that I don't trust you…. But should understand what I mean.." Amanda broke the silence, looking at Emma.
