Cecilia Immergreen has been your family's automaton servant ever since before you were born. In your childhood, she had taught you how to play the piano so that you could play duets with her. Her violin playing days are long gone now, and it's almost time for her to say goodbye. Over the years, you've formed a bond between her. Not a romantic bond, but a bond between an ephemeral caretaker and someone who isn't ready to move on. Everyone else is gone, and she is the only one left in your family. Her body and mind are showing obvious signs of wear, something that her creator implemented to make letting go easier. She has one last duet planned for your birthday.

A story set in the recent past tackling a hard theme. Don't use if you're not ready.
