When I opened my mouth to call out to Signe, I found that my programming wouldn't let me as the door swung open to reveal a police officer standing in the doorway armed with a pistol.

"Down on the ground!" The policeman barked sternly, pointing his gun at my face with an angry expression.

"I only take orders from Signe Hansen." I replied cooly, unfazed by the officer's sudden entrance.

"Seán, I told you to be quiet-"

Signe broke off when she spotted the police officer, her eyes wide in surprise as she darted down the stairs.

"Don't worry about him, what can I do for you?" Signe asked the officer kindly, roughly pushing past me.

"Sorry about the intrusion ma'am, but I was told to check everyone's homes and take all androids suspected of being deviant." The policeman informed Signe grimly with the gun still trained on me.

"Why?" Signe countered with a confused frown.

"With Detroit in deviant hands, everyone's on edge, even all the way out here in Brighton." The officer replied with an apologetic shrug as he lowered the gun.

"I know, I saw President Warren's speech earlier today." Signe murmured somberly with a soft sigh.

"Anyway, you have a nice night and stay safe." The officer added before leaving, closing the door behind him.

"Why didn't you tell me he was here sooner!?" Signe snapped as she turned on me.

"My programming wouldn't allow it, I can't disobey orders." I explained as Signe stormed towards the stairs.

"Whatever, just-I don't know, just go into sleep mode or something and leave me alone unless it's an emergency." Signe huffed before stomping upstairs, clearly unhappy about being woken up.

I nodded before I sat down on the couch, closing my eyes as I shut down once more.

"Seán!"

I opened my eyes when I heard Signe shout my name, her voice tinged with mild irritation.

I sat up and got off of the couch, heading to the kitchen where her voice had emanated from, ready to do as she wanted.

"Make breakfast quickly, I need to get to work." Signe directed without looking at me as she made herself a cup of coffee.

I observed her as she grabbed a mug from the cabinet, noticing that her relation with me was tense, but had potential to change with time.

"I'll be upstairs." Signe stated curtly as she left the room, leaving me alone to  prepare her breakfast.

Once her breakfast of an omelette and strawberries was ready, I took it up the stairs and knocked on the door of the room she was working in.

Signe swung it open and took the plate without a word, beginning to close the door.

Something made her hesitate and leave the door a crack open, her eyes seeming to scrutinize me as I waited for my new instructions.

"Come in." Signe invited, her tone gentler as she opened the door wider so I could enter.

I silently stepped into the room while Signe sat at her desk in a black office chair, lights illuminating her face and a camera pointed at her.

"I want you to try recording a video. Just for fun, I won't post it." Signe told me as she stood up from the chair and motioned for me to sit in it.

Do as she wants?

Not in my programming?
