Oh, yes. Without any doubt, he was wanted. Welcome so to say.
He was the result of more than wishful thinking and delivered by a good fairy.
It was just that if... if...
If only that little one wouldn't have been so exhausting and talkative. It started to annoy the parents.
It's a good thing it's small.
He nodded
We can let him stay in the box with spools of string, he'll love it. Perhaps he loses energy while crafting.
Whatever, let him go. He's smaller than Thumbelina but makes three times more noise. Never silent. I can't process anything with this child around.
No one listens. Teddy, how about a mouth and a headset?
Try if you can make a sound. Don't worry if you can't speak music is fine.
The piece of craft was smart enough to do as asked. Both sang instead of talking the entire day and night and no longer cared about the world they were separated from.
Aren't you hungry?
The fairy bright as the sun shone upon the tiny child standing in the spool box focused on the bear he'd been crafting.
I'm nearly done. What do you think about my Trojan horse? His voice is better than mine. Inside I created a home of my own.
It's a great piece of art. You are so gifted. I am proud of you.
She placed a magical box in front of him.
Now eat and tell me what you desire. You can stay or leave with me.
She smiled at the little child a bit worried because he seemed to have lost his voice but he turned out well and was able to take care of himself. His mood was good his character cheerful and no signs of depression or loneliness were shown. He crafted and created what his feelings told him he needed.
See you soon my son.
He looked at her and smiled.
There's a wide world outside. You can leave anytime you feel like it. I'm sure you'll love it.
She waved with her hand and the closed door swung open. The parent stood still with their backs against the wall. These robots were no longer needed and therefore been switched off. Soon they would be transported to a different unit where little children were crafted to populate the new world. The smaller the better, the lower the footprint and fewer the wishes and needs. At least that had been the idea of the Eu-genies, the old giant left and in need of human company.
