Ok, so here is the second chapter of 'Fragments of our memory'

Because of my hate for long author notes, I'll just start with the new chapter :)

The first time I saw you, I didn't like you at all...you were a human.

Actually, you were the first person I ever spoke to.

All I knew about you people came from books I had read to pass the time.

But you...interested me. At first I only wanted to tease and make fun of you, but as I saw how hard you tried to get your locket back from me...it was fascinating.

And then...I fell from the ferries wheel and I heard you shouting my name over and over again in panic. I was wondering why you would be worrying about me. I took your precious possession...

'Crow!'

The fall didn't hurt at all, I couldn't feel any pain. I am a doll after all...

'You're not dead are you...?....Crow?'

I heard your desperate plea, but I didn't understand. You sounded so devastated...as if you actually felt something for me. You pressed your forehead to your hands and I knew you would be crying soon. Somehow...I didn't want to see your tears...

'What a racket you're making. Quit blubbering already, will ya? And for your information: I didn't cry a single day in my entire life!' I said smugly.

Your emotions seemed so strange to me. You didn't know me...but still...you cried for me?

'You're alive...You're alive! Thank goodness...' you said with so much relief in your voice.

You looked up and...smiled at me. It took my breath away. What were these strange emotions? I thought I was a doll...so why did I feel my mechanic heart skipping a beat?

Suddenly you seemed so happy, as if you saw a lost loved one again. Did you really care about me? Now I felt guilty for teasing you before...

'Yep. You win. I give up, okay? Sorry.'

And then you laughed...you laughed! I felt so good at this very moment. I broke out in laughter alongside you and together we just faced each other and ... laughed. It was the first time in my entire life that I actually laughed. I didn't think dolls were able to do that, but it surely felt so overwhelming...good.

I felt this urge to know more about these weird humans, about these new emotions rising inside me...and most of all...I wanted to know more about you. The one who awoke these feelings in me.
