Where were you?
Chapter 1: Forgotten...
Simon was able to get back to Jericho after Markus left him in Stratford Tower. He had to come back for Markus, Simon thought.
But what if they never met in the tunnels of Jericho? What if Simon returned to Jericho but never really let himself be seen by Markus, North and Josh? Will the three even remember Simon throughout the revolution? Simon wonders if they really cared for him.
After the revolution, they had won but no one seems to even remember him. Not even the androids who he comforted back then remembered him. Markus, who he put all of his faith on him, hoping he would remember him, nothing happened. Not even Josh or North. It's unfair. But how could he be mad to those people who have set their kind free? What did Simon do when he was their leader? Nothing.
After a few weeks, Simon overheard the project that Markus and the others come up. They were going to build a memorial to those androids who have died for the cause. For Simon, that was enough for him to be happy because he was able to read his name in the memorial. As long as they remember him, Simon has no regrets.
The memorial was done and people (androids) have gathered to place their flowers to those who have fallen. Simon was there too. Expecting to find his name, Simon read nothing.
He clenched his fists. How could they? How could Markus, North and Josh didn't remember him? Selfish he had thought. How selfish of them. He left the memorial to let the others see it and went back to new Jericho.
He had written a letter for Markus. For Markus only. He had poured all of his emotions there; hope, joy, sorrow, love, jealousy, pain... and many others. He had opened the door to Markus' office and Simon cried as he placed his letter of goodbye there on their leader's desk.
He should be angry. Angry for the three of them for not remembering him but he couldn't. He packed himself enough blue blood and money to find himself a job. He searched for any jobs in Detroit and found an orphanage that needed to take care of the kids. Just the perfect job for him and took his time to leave New Jericho.
Simon also wondered if he will be able to forget them. After all, he loved them. Especially Markus. But that man had forgotten Simon.
