The first days in the apartment dragged on, as if time itself were testing their patience. Yuto was growing accustomed to Reina's presence, but every moment was filled with a mixture of wonder, fear, and curiosity.
In her human body, Reina was gradually learning about life: feeling the warmth of the sun, enjoying the aroma of hot coffee, and laughing at things she had never understood before. But everything was new to her, and every simple movement required concentration.
Yuto (smiling gently):
"You know… even these little moments felt strange to me before you were here."
Reina:
"And I… I didn't expect to feel all of this. The air… the sounds… everything feels… real."
In the background, Reina's digital memories began to surface. Flashbacks showed her glimpses of her past life as part of a secret project within the organization. They were simply data, tools for espionage, programs designed to learn quickly, surpassing her human intelligence.
Reina's memories (an inner whisper):
"I was just a number… just a code… used for their purposes… but… I'm not anymore."
Yuto noticed some changes in her behavior: the subtlety of her facial expressions, the hesitation in her hand movements, the light touch on his shoulder when she sensed the sadness in his eyes.
Yuto (to himself):
"She is… more real than anything else around me."
But the peace didn't last long. At the end of the week, a mysterious agent from the organization appeared, watching them from afar. He didn't dare intervene directly, but his words were a veiled threat:
Agent:
"You have materialized just as we expected… don't interfere, until you cross the line."
Reina felt a surge of unease, but she held Yuto's hand firmly:
Reina:
"Nothing will separate us… as long as we're together."
They sat together on the sofa, gazing at each other, as if trying to find their way in a world filled with mystery and danger. Every laugh, every tear, every word proved one thing to them: that life, despite all the threats, could grant them small moments of truth, moments when they felt they were… together.
