CHAPTER 7

NIGHTMARE

I went up to my room to think about what Mum had said. I wanted to chat to Maisie about it. I knew Mum was right, but I still couldn’t calm down. There was a strange kind of anger inside me, not hot, but cold. It burned its way through my body like ice.

Hello Maisie

I’m sorry I didn’t reply to your last message right away but something came up. My dad – the so-called genius – has invented what he calls “the future”. He’s built a walking, talking computer that can think for itself.

But my dad’s a liar. All he did was copy my brain patterns into the thing and use my mind as the basis for its thoughts. Mum and I went to see it today. It was horrible. It had two legs and two arms like we do, but it’s made of this weird springy, squashy material. Its eyes are like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Those eyes would give you nightmares for a month. And Dad had the cheek to say it was modelled on me. I hate it.

Dad doesn’t realise he’s created a monster. It’s got to go. Watch this space.

Your friend

Claire
