Featured Author - April Robo-Admirer Story of the week: View past Author's of the Month |
The way back was rather peaceful. Having a quarter of a million dollars doll sitting in the passenger seat in silence was a tad unsettling but what can you do? Sitting there in a white bodysuit, a cardboard box with her belongings inside and a standard suitcase in the boot. Maybe I should have just turned her on and had a conversation. But no one can change the past. Had this been the turn of the decade, many people would have looked on in wonder as I passed them by. And not to just see my mug shot of a face, but to see what complimented that. Now days these machines were commonplace. Granted, you wouldn’t just walk on into any town or suburb and see these expensive things walking around. Most people couldn’t afford them after what the old Government many decades ago did to them. Personally, I quite liked that dude whose name escaped me. He basically had a clone of himself across the pond! But I digress. As I pulled up into the driveway, I lugged my purchase into the bedroom and its belongings along with it. I opened the box and found a USB drive along with a manual. Skipping the inevitable, I just went straight to the book. We all know that the USB wouldn’t have worked. So, in good old skim reading style I found the procedure to turn this thing on, and that’s where it started. Her eyes shot open as she stared straight ahead. “Please wait while your Sofia Model X initiates first time procedures.” Might as well have been the real thing saying those words. For the first time in my life I thought that this could work on the first go. And just as that thought came about, it crashed dead. “Error in initial procedures, please wait” So, I got a little bit frustrated. And by a little bit I mean punching a pillow frustration. I swear I wish I lived in a time before electronics. Then maybe I’d still have some thick black hair left. As my fist met the pillow once more, I heard a chime. “First procedures have successfully concluded, loading personality 1.0” Her eyes quickly darted around the room, looking at everything in a seemingly erratic pattern before locking onto me. Those pearly whites shone through as she extended her right hand. “Hello! I am Sofia, pleased to meet you!” |
