My Robot Friend

It was a lovely birthday party thrown by my friends and families. After everyone left I was excited to see all the gifts so I started to unwrap it. Suddenly my eyes caught a huge box beside my couch. It was wrapped neatly in red colored paper with a red ribbon attached in front and was very heavy. When I unraveled it, I screamed in surprise as it was a girl of about 12-13 years old. I hurriedly left my room.
Dr. Wells who was also there at the party called me and asked to open his present which I already did. After talking to him I came to know that it was not a real girl but a robot called Person Plus 5000. Then I went into my room and saw her standing like a statue. She was wearing white skirt and her hair tied up with red ribbon. I asked her what her name was and she replied Person Plus 5000. I asked her where she came from but this time she just repeated what I said. It was already an hour she kept repeating my words which made me irritated so I decided to take her back to Dr. Wells Lab.

There he checked her system and offered me help to train her. The first thing I did was changed her name to Bebo.  Then we taught here different activities like cleaning, brushing carrying etc, different words and sentences which were not programmed in her system. After weeks and weeks of our training she was ready to be taken back home. At home whenever I would ask her to clean my apartment she would clean it neatly. Whenever I would ask her to make me my favorite recipe she would make it tasty.

So, I am having an easy and comfortable life with my robot friend Bebo.
