Chapter 375
I leaned back against the desk slightly, “Yeah,” I pushed the tablet toward her, “This one’s better.”
She looked confused but stepped closer anyway then she looked down at the screen.
BLACK VEIL.
Her brow furrowed, “What is this?”
“Open it.”
She tapped the screen carefully. The interface expanded smoothly. I watched her expression shift immediately Confusion first, then focus and then curiosity.
She started reading the sample text on screen, then stopped. Her eyes widened slightly. Her fingers moved hesitantly over the settings. The text shifted, adjusted and stabilized.
I saw the exact moment she realized what it was.
Slowly, she looked back up at me, “What… is this?”
I crossed my arms loosely, “It’s yours.”
She stared at me silently.
I nodded toward the screen. “The app analyzes how your eyes track language patterns in real time. It adjusts spacing, movement density, visual clutter, predictive sequencing, and handwriting conversion based on your specific processing habits.”
She looked back down at the tablet like it might disappear.
I continued quietly.
“It also has audio synchronization for reading overload days. Voice-to-text correction calibrated specifically to your speech rhythm. Handwriting prediction. Pattern isolation for coding. Adaptive overlays. The system learns the more you use it.”
Gianna’s fingers trembled slightly against the edges of the tablet, “You… built this?”
I looked away briefly, adjusting my cuff, “It needed to exist.”
Gianna slowly sat down in the chair behind her like her legs suddenly couldn’t hold her anymore then she started testing it. Opening documents. Typing random things. Switching functions.
And the entire time, her expression kept changing. Shock. Disbelief. Confusion. Then finally, something far worse. Her eyes started filling with tears.
Ah.
Fuck.
I straightened immediately, “Gianna-”
“No,” she whispered quickly, shaking her head hard while staring at the screen, “No, I’m okay.”
She absolutely wasn’t okay.
Her fingers moved shakily over the handwriting converter again.
She scribbled something messy onto the screen.
