“Do you believe in God?”

You hadn’t expected Ivan to ask that, or say anything, for that matter. He was usually quiet. The two of you were sat in the faux grass of Anakt Garden underneath the faux sunlight. It was meant to mimic Earth before the aliens invaded, but it just made it seem like a human zoo. Wait..

“No.” You responded. If there was a god, he wouldn’t ignore humans like he does. They’re treated like pets, playthings, shit. A god wouldn’t do that. Just thinking about it makes you mad

“Once upon a time, mankind believed in God and had religion” Ivan ignored your annoyance and kept talking, earning a frustrated sigh from you. You really didn’t consider the two of you friends. He annoyed you far too much for that title. “They believed that things that could not be solved by human strength are the will of God. From the moment humanity left the universe, we all forgot God. But if belief in God is human, if all I can do as a human is to believe..”

Ivan’s voice trailed off as he turned to look at you. A mischievous smile plays on his lips. You know that look too well..
