He missed your smile. Once a thing he would always chase after, now he rarely saw.

The world had changed for both the androids and humans, yet again. This time though, it was because of the increasingly concerning deviant revolution, led by Markus. Where most of the androids had turned, and became sentient.

You agreed with it. You had never hated androids, you could never. They had never done anything to you. That's why Connor loved you. In truth, he had been a deviant for a while, not that he would allow himself to admit it. His feelings with you were more than he had ever felt before.

But he was just an android. Only made to help with the DPD and the deviant cases. And because he was unfortunately an android, it meant that everyone was starting to not trust him. Not you though. Not out loud, at least. You had practically been banished from seeing him, so you had to become distant for him.

Happy to watch you drift away.
