Responsible Party
Little girl. So strong, and still so little.
So young.
(So you lost your temper. Let him have it. Kicked your mother’s boyfriend down the stairs.
So what?)
You really shouldn’t have done that. You’re young, yes, but you’ve got responsibilities. Serious responsibilities. You know that.
And yet…
You didn’t mean to, did you? It was all a mistake, a horrible mistake, and you’ll have to live with that forever.
(Plus, the guy was a total jerk.)
We’re so sorry. So very sorry.
Tomorrow you’ll find out that robots can look real.
But right now, we can’t really help you.
