Chapter 13: Ram's Tag Along
It had been a few weeks since Silent had been with Ram and the rest. She was wary of Tron and Yori since they made fun of her circuit color. She visited Sara once a week for checkups. She also had Ram show her how to work some of the machines on the Grid.
"Now, Silent, since you have learned how to use a lightjet and a lightcycle what do you want to do now?" Ram asked. He was with Silent at the Libation Station, enjoying the tranquil mood. He had a green libation in his hand.
"Hm… what is your job?" Silent asked. She always saw Ram running around, and it confused her.
"I'm an actuary. I deliver things to certain places and people, which reminds me… I have to see Alan-1 so I'll see you when I get back." He said, thanking Ruby for the drinks and began to walk off.
"Wait!"
"Yes?" He asked, looking back at the purple program.
"Can I come too?" Silent asked. She wanted to get away from the boring place, and she wanted to see what a so called USER was.
"Um, are you sure you want too? I mean it's kinda pretty boring for a non-actuarian." He said.
"Yes!" Silent smiled. "Please?" She asked. "And I won't have to stay here with the creepy bodyguards and Dmitri." She whispered.
"What was that?"
"Nothing! So?" She pleaded.
"Alright, but stay close to me. Doppler is still out there." He warned.
"Yes! Thanks!" She hugged Ram, and that emotion just popped out of nowhere.
Ram felt his face heat up. He fell over sideways because of the intruding emotion to his mind.
"Ram?"
"Nothing. Let's go."
