“This is a big decision and it is my decision,” Lucy snapped at Eliza, it was the first time I saw Lucy lash out at Eliza. I bet any average teenager would lash out if their friend kept undermining their decision.

“I agree, it is your decision, but you’re doing this for the wrong reasons. You say this procedure is your gift for your grandpa then don’t you think he should have a say in it, considering that he cannot return this gift once you bought it for him? All am saying is what if this is not what your grandpa would want as a gift from you,” Eliza made some sound points. Clearly, she seemed to be a pro in reasoning with Lucy. No wonder Lucy’s family let Lucy come to the half-yearly card auction with Eliza. They knew they could trust their daughter with Eliza.

“He is my grandpa. I know what he wants. He loves surprises,” What Lucy meant was she knew her grandpa better than Eliza did. And if she were to discuss this with her grandpa then it would ruin the surprise.

“That is why asked you to talk to your parents or your grandma. I may not know your grandpa better than you but your parents and grandma sure do. They have been with your grandpa longer than you. So they know everything about your grandpa, his likes and dislikes. By asking your parents and grandma if your grandpa will like you to undergo this procedure, you will be able to know if your grandpa will love this gift of yours while maintaining the integrity of the surprise of your gift for your grandfather. Don’t you think this is the most efficient way to address this situation?” hearing Eliza’s bullshit, even I was convinced that Lucy should ask her parents and grandma for their opinion. I was beginning to think Eliza had her edition of the user manual on Lucy.

“…” Hearing Eliza’s argument, Lucy fell into deep contemplation, but it did not take her long to reach a conclusion, “Granpa always said that I know him the best.”

That was Lucy’s way of throwing Eliza’s edition of the user manual on Lucy on Eliza’s face. I did not expect this turn of events. I was looking forward to seeing how Eliza will make her comeback from this.

“That’s it, I was hoping that you would do the right thing but you didn’t. Your grandpa let me in charge of you so you do as I say. Lucy, do not force me, I will call your grandpa if don’t leave with me this instant,” It seems Eliza was out of tricks and decided to handle this old-school way. Well, I gotta give it to Eliza for holding up till now.

“Nobody is in charge of me I am my own person. I going to undergo this procedure and you can’t stop me,” I was being to think that Lucy was no longer agreeing to this procedure just as a gift for her grandpa but also in spite. Lucy seemed to be very angry at Eliza for undermining her decision. So she stubbornly agreed to go through this procedure to show that she can make her decisions and live with them like the rest of us. This showed great progress on Lucy’s part. Wanting to be normal, what could be more normal than that?

“Fuck it, I will drag you out of here if I have to,” Saying that Eliza grabbed Lucy by her left wrist and began dragging Lucy. In response Lucy’s left hand turned into a cannon, preying open Eliza’s grasp on her hand. And then Lucy’s cannon arm morphed back into a hand.

“You…” Eliza stared at Lucy.

“I am not coming, I want to go through the procedure,” Lucy yelled.

“…” Eliza stared at Lucy hard and then said, “Fine, I give up. You can undergo the procedure if it means that much to you.”

“Really, your not mad?” Lucy was surprised to see Eliza agree with her decision and began to feel guilty for yelling at Eliza.

“I understand you did not do it on purpose, so it is hard to be mad at you,” Eliza assured Lucy that she was not mad at her, and eyeing me she said, “Let’s make an appointment with Wyatt and when everything is set, you can undergo the procedure like you want to.”

“Okay,” Hearing Eliza, Lucy cheered and turned to me and said, “Master Wyatt, when can I undergo the procedure?”

“If you guys are not busy then we can get right to it. It will take an hour at max,” I said confidently, as I had Hive AI simulate the procedure on Lucy thousands of times and had gotten an average success rate of 99.99 percent. So there was no doubt in my mind about the success of the procedure.

“Great,” Lucy cheered upon hearing my answer. But the same was not true for Eliza. She was was dumbfounded hearing my answer. It appears she did not agree with Lucy’s decision. It was just part of her plan.

Eliza would rather let Lucy drink liquor for the first time or go on a joy ride in her hovercar or sole a C-rank dungeon rather than undergo the procedure. But she agreed to Lucy’s decision because she believed that a procedure that involves cutting open a person’s skull and operating next to the patient’s brain would involve a lot of planning and preparations. So she believed that even if Lucy agreed to undergo the procedure now it would the quack doctor a day at minimum to do all the planning and preparations. During this period she can contact Lucy’s parents and grandparents and have them fly in to stop lucy from undergoing the procedure. But she did not imagine the young quack doctor would agree to do the complicated procedure on Lucy any moment, anywhere, as if the procedure was equivalent to butchering a pig or chicken.

“You fucking quack Doctor. Do you even know what you are doing?” Enraged Eliza climbed the tea table between us and reached to grab me by my neck.

“let go of me, you crazy bitch.”
