1. Nancy's loneliness
A tiny girl was standing with the help of stool to farewell her parents in early morning. Usually children habituated to sleep till late morning, specially children like Nancy but she was excited to wake up early. It was usual morning of Nancy. Her smiling face immediately turns to sad after seeing off her parents. As soon as, she recovers her guilty, loud calling of her name runs towards her, “Nancy, Your breakfast is ready.”
It was cold invitation for breakfast. Nancy came and sat down on chair. However, every item was her favourite but expected smile was vanished because of absence of her dear parents whom she craves. She couldn’t eat properly and went to her room and started to do her favourite work, writing diary.
“Dear Diary, Today, I woke up early in compare of yesterday so that I can have some time with Mom – Dad but both were busy for their importance meetings. Dad was little bit free but talked with me while doing his packing. Dad was going outside the town. It was bad news for me. I am left with Robo Uncle. I am offended with Dad because he didn’t take me with his trip. I want to ......”
She couldn’t complete her diary due to dozing. Obviously, she woke up at 5 am, just to farewell her parents. It never means that her parents don’t care about her tiny child but both have to work for their daughter’s bright future with comfort. Natasha wasn’t inclined to do job after bearing Nancy but due to such increasing inflation, she had to job with her husband, Sanjay. She started job since Nancy was mere 5 year only from 10 to 6 but now-a-days, it’s vacation of Nancy but not for her parents. So with much savings, this middle class family afforded a Robot, full care taker of Nancy and house worker. It was easy for them to manage home with the help of automatic skilled Robot. Nancy firstly enjoyed company of Robo Uncle who can play with her, can make delicious food for her and specially makes everything possible to her but slowly and gradually it appears lacking to Nancy. Everything for Robot was controlled by her parents. Nancy was feeling boring to pass time with Robo Uncle. In the vacation, she planned a lot with her parents during her school but as soon as vacation came, her parents got more busy with their work. Nancy felt loneliness.
Having breakfast, Nancy operates Laptop but couldn’t do properly then watched TV but didn’t find interesting. She requested Robo Uncle to bring her outside.
“Sorry, Dear Nancy, It is not included with my program. I can play with you at home as per your wish.”
“Noooo. I want to go out of home. Please Robo Uncle, take me anywhere.”
“I can’t do dear, please try to understand. What do you want to eat?”
“Nothing at all.” Nancy shouted. “Robo Uncle, What I need to do for going outside?“
“You must ask your parents. They only can allow me to take you outside.”
Though, Human Robo shares humanly bond but it was lacking something to Nancy. She was waiting curiously for her parents and decided to talk firmly to go outside by hook or crook. She made her mind to do anything for leaving this boring home.

Finally Natasha came with talking on mobile about delaying presentations. Nancy called her two or three times but she made no attention. Nancy decided to ask at dining table with the presence of both with presence of their mind too. Nancy was sure that her request finally may consider and they will go for picnic at least only for one day. She had already planned cloths to wear for picnic, where to go and have fun with Robo Uncle and mom dad. She was still thinking about picnic and suddenly Dad surprizes her.
At dining table, Natasha and Sanjay was talking about the day of Nancy with Robot. Nancy denied to tell about plan to go outside as she decided to request first then to persist them at any cost.
“Mom, I’m bored at home.”
“Call your friends at home or you can go with Robo Uncle. Beta.”
“But Mom my friends are out of town for picnic. They are enjoying a lot in various rides, in zoo and at sea and I am here. Mom, let’s go somewhere please mom dad.”
“ beta, you have vacation but we don’t still I will try to go before your school will reopen.”
“No...I want to go tomorrow at any cost. Please... please... please otherwise I won’t eat untill you take me in picnic.”
“My princess, You know, I am going to trip tonight. Please try to understand and eat your favourite chocolate.”
“I want picnic not chocolate. Please Mom.”
“We will go after your Dad comes.”
“No....”
As per expectation, Nancy leaves the dining table. She won’t be silent as usual today.
She had plan B like her favourite cartoon characters. In her small mind, she was weaving something.

As usual morning, Natasha and Sanjay departed early morning. Nancy stole something from her mother’s purse. As soon as, they left her with Robo, She opens guide book of Robo and starts laptop. She was doing something suspicious.
