Chapter 156 - Dramatic Changes In Yuki’s Body Part 2
Trisha helped Yuki bathe and get dressed before the two went to the living room to sit. Trisha was massaging Yuki's fingers as Yuki tried her best to wiggle them. Just knowing she was able to move her fingers made her day absolutely amazing. "How does this feel here?"
"I have more feeling in each one of my fingertips, but it feels like it is slowly moving downwards." Yuki felt something was much different from before. She felt like her entire upper body was on pins and needles.
Yuki closed her eyes and cleared her mind, trying to make sense of this feeling. "Yu-Yu-Yu-Yuki!!!!!!" Trisha cried out.
Yuki opened her eyes and found she could now almost clench her fist! "This..."
Just moments ago, she could only move her finger slightly, but now she could move her entire hand! Yuki still had that strange feeling running through her body. She quickly closed her eyes and hoped that this feeling was her body telling her she just had to try a little harder.
Screams of joy could be heard filling up the house. Mary and Bell came out into the living room after hearing the yelling, wondering what was going on. As soon as Mary saw Yuki with tears in her eyes, she quickly ran over and pushed herself in between Yuki and Trisha. "Master! Are you okay? Did this woman harm you!? Did she bully you!? Do not worry, Master. Mary will protect you with everything she has!"
"This woman!? Bully!?" Trisha wanted to throw this damn A.I. away! Why was she so strange!? "Wait! Why are you clinging to Yuki!?"
Both Trisha and Mary began fighting over rights to the hang on Yuki while Bell stood to the side yawning. She was already getting used to this scene. Yuki was starting to get annoyed and out of annoyance knocked both of them on the head with her fist. Yes, she hit both of them in the head with her fist…. She hit both of them…. She… both… "Yuki!?"
"Ah! Err…" Yuki also just realized what she just did. She stared at her hands and arms that were moving around naturally again and tears filled her eyes. "I…. Trisha… I can move them again!"
"Mm! My Yuki is amazing! Mary, Bell, go get Mom! Quickly, she has to see this!" Trisha yelled out. She knew Tina would never get mad for being woken up for something like this. Mary did not hesitate to follow Trisha's order and ran off. She knew this was a major event and the madam had to be here to see it!
Trisha hugged Yuki tightly. Yuki shakenly raised her arms and wrapped them around Trisha. How long had it been since she was able to do this? How long had it been since she could actually hold the girl she loved on her own will? Yuki started crying. She was happy beyond belief.
Tina came out in her bathrobe and saw Yuki crying and hugging Trisha and almost thought she was dreaming. "This… Mary, am I dreaming?"
"No Madam, what you are seeing is sexual hara… Ahem. what you are seeing is not a dream." Mary was going to crack a joke but stopped herself. She knew this was not the time for that.
Tina covered her mouth and started to cry. She rushed over and stood in front of Yuki. "Your arms..."
Yuki lifted her head and looked at Tina and smiled with her tear filled eyes. In a trembling voice she softly said: "Mom…. My arms..."
"Mmm! Mmm!" Tina joined in on the hug and hugged both girls tightly.
Bell came to Mary's side and said: "I saw how you held back."
"Mmm… I did." Mary answered as she looked on at the heartwarming scene in front of her.
"I have been meaning to ask but why are you so obsessed over this human?" Bell could not grasp why Mary liked this human girl so much to the point that she would fight to be the girls number one.
"It's strange. I do not really understand it myself. It is like something deep in my programming just makes me want to be with her. As soon as I saw her, I wanted to protect her. Even if she had not picked me at that time I would have broken out of that place and hid in the shadows just to protect her. I wonder if this makes me more like them, wanting to do something on my own." Mary had never noticed this change in her until she saw Yuki. Since that day she only wanted to be by Yuki's side. She wanted Yuki to be happy and have a fulfilling life. But she also had a strong sense of competitiveness when it came to Trisha being with Yuki. As if she had to be Yuki's number one.
Bell looked at Mary in surprise and that was when a thought came to mind. "Your programming if I am not wrong is based off of the exodus program right?"
"Mmm, I have the experimental program in me. It was to see if A.I.s…. Hah! Haha! I have to give my thanks to my creator. He not only labeled me as a failure but also the entire project as a failure! This was why I was sold off to be a servant. To think that all it took was finding the one you wished to protect with your entire being to make the original experiment successful." Mary was very happy at this time. She smiled warmly at the three on the couch. Because of them she had gained something no other A.I. has.
Bell lowered her head. As she mumbled to herself. "Is it possible for us to break out of the cycle which is programmed into us?"
"Bell..." Mary patted Bell's shoulder as she continued: "Your programming was to take care of humans but you are much different from those other A.I.s. Look at how you are worrying over things. You are on your way to be free from the binds of the program."
