A/N: …I'm aware that I am starting a new story but I couldn't help it! ;-; Also, forgive me for removing stories. I found them really annoying so yeah. I'm so sorry. And I admit I got this idea from Kagamine Rin's "Kokoro" song. :') It's really sad.

'A robot was built by a lonely scientist,
To say how it was done, miracle
But something was missing, there was one thing he couldn't do,
and that was the program called a heart'
.
The room was dim, because light only passed through the thin hole created by the cracks on the hole. A clock hung on the wall, ticking on. It showed eleven forty-five in the morning. The man smiled as he worked on. His brown hair turned gold whenever he moved and the rays hit them. His hand never stopped connecting the wires.
Tsunayoshi Sawada, or formerly known as Dr. Tsuna, was busy stuffing wires into appropriate hole of the figure. He was in his own mini lab, just under his study room. He used to work with the Vongola Lab but he resigned when they critique and despised of his idea of creating a robot. They told him it was possible but takes a lot of fund.
The brunet wasn't going to let them win. He resigned and took his salaries away with him and moved away from Tokyo. He lived in a small house. At first, he was wary of the house's condition. But when he discovered the crack on the floor which leads to his current lab, he immediately bought the house. With the money left, he started on his invention. He rarely went up to his room. There was a fridge that he brought down to the lab. The toilet was also built by him at the corner of the room.
It was a perfect lab for him.
Two years have passed since he started working on the robot. His eyes turned puffy and he grew thinner. But that didn't stop his wish of getting his invention done. When the clock lets out a heavy 'tong' sound, Tsuna looked up. It showed six in the evening. He yawned. He had been staying up late for months now.
The brunet quickly connect all the wires and walked towards his controlling machine. There, he pushed a yellow button followed by the green button. Light emit from the robot's eyes and Tsuna's eyes gleamed with excitement. He continued typing on the keyboards.
The robot shook and it's eyes was filled with live. Tsuna looked satisfied. He left the machine and approached the robot. He looked up at it proudly.
This is it, I've made it! He thought excitely.
He touched the robot's skin. It felt soft and natural. "Hello, I am your creator, Tsunayoshi Sawada," he smiled at the robot. The robot, given the name 'Reborn', merely stared at his creator. He did not speak but his eyes bore into Tsuna's eyes. Tsuna beamed. "Your name is Re-born."
"...Re...born." the robot's voice came out electrical. Tsuna nodded. He repeated the word. "My name...is Reborn."
Reborn had black spiky hair with a tall, fit body. From faraway, one might view him as a hot human but if they look closer, lines could be seen under his chin. Tsuna created Reborn to fill in his lonely life; he had no family, no spouses and no friends.
He was alone.
"Yes, you are Reborn. From now on, you are my friend." Tsuna smiled. He held out his hand towards Reborn. The robot tilted his head slightly. Tsuna urged him to shake it. They shook hand. Tsuna was beyond pleased at his succession.
The next day, the brunet left Reborn alone at home and went out shopping. After two and a half years, he finally get to breath fresh outside air. All these times he was locked in his lab, not knowing what had happened to the outside world. Tsuna visited a casual shop, buying Reborn a few shirts, jeans and scarfs. Then he walked around the town, looking for something to eat.
"T-Tsuna?" he turned when he heard someone addressing him so familiarly.
A silver haired man stood there, with an ice cream half in his mouth. His green eyes stared at Tsuna, making the brunet awkward.
"Um, do I know you?" Tsuna asked.
"I'm Gokudera Hayato, your assistant two years ago," the silverette answered. "You're getting thinner...how's life?"
Tsuna smiled at the ground. "I'm fine." he muttered.
Gokudera bit his lips. He was finding for something to say. "U-Um, about your plan that year, have you...achieved it?"
"Huh?"
"You know, the...robot plan." Gokudera scratched his cheek slowly. He hesitated if he should bring up the topic. He felt bad for not supporting Tsuna when the brunet revealed his plan. He didn't know if Tsuna could actually do it or not so he didn't say anything to back up his leader. The guilt was with him even after two and a half year.
A smiled crept on Tsuna's face. "Well, it's going fine." he said, smiling. Then he checked his watch. "Ah, I got to go. Reborn is waiting for me. See you, Gokudera!" Then he rushed away.
The silverette stared as Tsuna ran away. Reborn? Why does that name sound so...familiar?
"I'm home—"
Reborn looked up from his actions. The plastic bags that Tsuna was holding fell on the floor, the contents falling out. His jaw hanged open, shocked. The robot stood up. "Tsuna." was his short reply.
The brunet looked around. "Y-You cleaned this?" he asked in disbelief.
Reborn nodded. "I saw that it was dirty. Dirty things must be cleaned." he answered. Tsuna nodded.
"That's very nice of you..." he praised. Reborn's eyes gleamed in happiness. He hugged his creator suddenly. Tsuna yelped, surprised. Although Reborn was a robot, but he could feel his body heat. How is this possible?
Confused, Tsuna hugged back.
