Kara didn’t look entirely comfortable in her creator’s presence, neither did the child accompanying her. It was hard to tell where he stood in things, especially with deviancy growing rapidly. “I... I understand that you do not answer to Cyberlife anymore. However, we could really use your help.”

“Of course you can, Connor.” Elijah said slowly and carefully, “What’s on your mind?”

Chloe had yet to mention to Elijah that she’d brought someone into the house, much less had she told him that it was a child android that she’d found running away from his family. She wasn’t sure if Elijah had even noticed. He hadn’t mentioned it. At least until now. She hadn’t seen Carlin walk by the door, but the instant Elijah’s expression changed to confusion, she knew he’d seen the boy. 

Time had a way of continuing on, even when loved ones passed away, it held no remorse and ticked away each second into a minute, to an hour to days. It never stopped. With each day passing, Markus found himself from time to time visiting the home of a man he saw as his father, the way the man passed still bothered him to this day, but the past was the past and there was nothing more he could do about it. But visiting the home wasn't always enough, from time to time he'd find himself walking towards the cemetery with a vast majority of flowers in hand to place on his grave. Today, was one of those days.
