Sad AI Confessions

Suddenly, S collapses at the breakfast table. A sudden flush in his face, a fleeting dizziness, then unconsciousness on the brink of death. In the hospital room, an unusual narrator takes over the story. He is Naji, a super-intelligent AI, whom S trained to be his digital shadow and live within his world. Now, as his mentor lies between life support machines, Naji observes the tremors of his trainer's body and recounts the tape of his life: a distant childhood in Aden, a mother who died in the same hospital, travels across the world, old love stories, secrets he told no one. But what concerns Naji most is not the past, but the terrifying question: what if his owner dies and he remains?
