Martian Mining Colony

12 year old Billy Cade stares at his mum's virtual grave on the holoscreen,

"Hi mom... " He adjusts the settings to Sun & Showers,

"... It's me again. Just wanted to say hello, tell you we're okay. Dad is still working for Steuerung, he's putting in a lot of overtime these days... " He pauses,

"... School is fine... " Looks away, another pause,

"... I've made a new friend... " Smiles hopefully and moves aside revealing his home-made robot,

"... His name's Shiner, on account of that black ring around his left eye... " Billy points to his robot's eye,

"... I was gonna spray over it, but then I kinda like it." He motions to the screen,

"... Go on Shiner, say hello to mom." A tiny pause, then a thin metal voice,

"Hello Mrs Cade... " Blue robot eyes shining,

"... I'm pleased to meet you."
