Chapter 15 - Daddy's Protection

The father and Daughter pair were sat at Rose's private seating area having breakfast but unlike yesterday their air was stale and dark not like the usual bright mornings.

Theodore stared at his daughter who was now giving him the silent treatment. Why was he getting the silent treatment? Simple Rose woke up at home instead of the jungle filled with her pets. She was angry with Theodore not letting her play with the animals.

Digging into a plate of waffles she quietly muttered "Bad daddy, I'm not gonna talk to you. Bad, bad"

She then proceeded to aggressively bite her way through the waffles. "Daddy's a big liar. I'm telling Mrs Jones"

Theodore on the other side of the table could do nothing but accept her words with sigh "Hey Sonya would you like to introduce yourself to Rose"

The T.V on the wall turned on to show Sonya her own ideal vision of what she thinks is beautiful. The first time Sonya booted up it was only the outline/shadow of a women's features. Now it was pale-skinned women in her mid twenty's, feline-like green emerald eyes, plump pink lips. Long black silky hair with green ombre highlights and a green hue glowing around the outline of her hair.

Theodore was left awestruck cause the image that displayed on the T.V was clearly a character from his childhood show, Kim Possible.

'Shego!! Really how the hell did she come up with this image? To be fair she is probably the most realistic Shego I've seen. Hopefully, she isn't evil' Theodore thought with an awkward smile on his face.

"Umm is that you Sonya," Said, Theodore

"Yes Theodore, now can get out of the way, I'm trying to introduce myself," Said Sonya while rolling her eyes at him.

'It's the same eye roll, will Sonya even listen to me. And why is she so interested in Rose' Theodore thought quietly.

"Hi sweety I'm Sonya, you can call me aunty Sonya," Said Sonya while waving her hand excitedly

Rose stared at Sonya with her head tilted to the side with a confused look and said: "Dad, what show is this?"

Sonya's confidence was immediately shattered as her wave stopped and slowly fell then her head fell. She whispered quietly to herself "She called me a show, the most advanced A.I a show"

"Hahaha, She's not a show she's talking to you Rose, Come on Sh*Cough* Sonya try again," Said Theodore lightly

"Hi, Rose I'm Sonya," Said Sonya with the very little enthusiasm she had left.

"Hi, aunty, your really pretty" Said Rose with a cute wave.

"Aww Thank you. You're very pretty as well, it's like your a Princess" Said Sonya with exaggeration

"Hehehe Thank you Aunty Sonya" Said Rose with a red blush on chubby cheeks.

"Awww so cute I wish I could hug you," Said, Sonya

"Hmm, why can't you?" Asked Rose

"Cause your dad trapped me in here," Said Sonya with fake tears

Theodore hoped for Sonya to distract Rose so that she could to forget about their little quarrel but now she's actually making it worse

"Huh? Hold up Sonya don't tell her that. You see Rose, dad just. . . " Theodore tried to explain.

"Aunty, lying is bad. hmm Aunty and Dad are liars and baddies," Said Rose while turning away with her waffles and oranges juice.

Both Sonya and Theodore were shocked. Sonya was having her own little monologue "Bad, Bad, Liar. . . "

'Does her ability work all thing not just physical beings. Which reminds I need to to check on Rose blood, something tells me she has X gene. It most likely has something to do with animals or something along those lines'

"Ah sorry Sonya I forgot to tell you about Rose's condition, also can you put together a good looking indoor garden for the fourth room, also can you find out what's beneath the building"

"Okay," Sonya said with a sad tone.

With a sigh he decided to comfort "Like you said she's young she'll get over it, then you can try again"

He didn't even understand why he was comforting her but it felt right. As he had unconsciously accepted her to be more than just a machine but a friend, partner.

"No I won't," Said Rose from the side.

"Sorry princess but I took you away from the jungle is because it can get ill and your friends will also get you sick," Said Theodore with concern

"But they are my friends they won't get me sick," She said innocently with her head tilted to the side.

"It's not that they want to get you sick it's just that you will get sick because their dirty and so is the forest they live in," Theodore said slowly

"Umm okay, daddy is just protecting me" She said nodding her little head

"Yep that's right I'm just protecting you" said Theodore while patting her head.

"But dad can we visit them," Asked Rose nervously

"No, but I can allow them to visit" Said Theodore with a smile before making her tiger friends appear.

"Tee!! and Momma Tee!! I missed you, did you miss me" Said Rose while hugging their heads in her small arms.

Theodore pulled out the blue customisation box and had them cleaned. After cleaning, their fur was now shining and their smell was changed to something similar to honey and lemon. Even their teeth were shinning.

"Wow, you smell so nice and your so soft!!" Rose said rubbing her cheeks on their heads

Theodore walked up to them and also got a feel by brushing his hand across their backs before patting Rose head "Are you happy now princess"

Rose nodded her head with a big smile "Dad, do you have another bag for Tee"

"You can't take Tee to school," Said Theodore hurriedly

"But why? I want Chloe to meet Tee" Said Rose unhappily

"After school, you can show them, I'll have them visit every afternoon well make this morning exception" Said, Theodore

"Okay, Tee and Momma Tee I'll show you my room" Said Rose while running up the stair.

Tee and Momma Tee followed her willingly with equal excitement.

"Sonya I'm gonna need those indoor garden plans," Said Theodore tiredly

"Yeah, it's done. I sent it to your phone" Said Sonya

"Thanks," Said Theodore

He then went to the forth room. Using the blue box again he changed his gym/dojo to an indoor garden. The ceiling and the roof was opened up and replaced with bulletproof glass. This was to allow sunlight through. Then the floor was changed into the dirt with fresh long grass.

Around the room were some plants directly from the jungle. In the centre was a pool and on the wall. This was a paradise for both animals and humans. Looking at his handy work he gave a satisfied nod and said "Rose can you come to the gym for a sec and bring your pets"
