No, this can’t happen. They can’t do this without telling us. I thought.

Maybe if they told us about it we would have prevented it. Eve suggested.

I can do whatever I need to. I thought.

We where built to survive, and we must do so to rebuild the world. Eve thought.

Wait, did she know about this all along? She was only created to reproduce and survive with me. Also, if she was as like me as she is supposed to be, she’d be agreeing with me right now.

I’m supposed to be different. Eve chided again.

“NO!!”
