My Robot Buddy (TM) sat down on the end of the bed.
"Hiya! Whatcha doin'?"
The girl looked up slowly, her eyes red and sore.
"Crying! What do you think?"
My Robot Buddy (TM) paused, their irises rotating as they downloaded new information.
"Happy crying?"
"No!"
My Robot Buddy (TM)'s irises spun more.
"So you're upset then?"
She glared at My Robot Buddy (TM) but nodded, once. My Robot Buddy (TM) took a long moment, its online search engine moving away from the approved datasets to other data sources.
Her new robotic friend gently touched her hand with its own.
