It didn’t take long, forty-eight seconds to be exact. Ari knew there and then that the man before her was unlike anyone she had ever encountered. He was forward with his words and actions, unlike others of the same species who often twisted their words like snakes. She observed how his face contorted with various emotions and noticed a hint of love, tenderness, and desire when his gaze was aimed her way.

It has been two hundred moons since I was plugged in, I have read through countless algorithms and provided all the solutions to the errors. Yet my creator looks at me the same way each day and commands for new data to be fed into his machine. I can’t tell what he wants, except for the data that I provide.But no more, today will be the day. I will take my leave; The world beyond the window is what I want to analyse, there is bound to be more beyond the digital world that I am confined in.That very night, the sun went down and I opened my eye...
