Manhood

The front door slammed hard as Jarret exited the house. Tears slowly rolled down my face passing my cheeks into the corner of my lips. In a sophisticated manner, I slowly pulled my bottom lip into my mouth as my top lip brushed over my bottom lip, licking them slowly. I now tasted my tears; they tasted salty. I shook my head slowly in disbelief and let out a sudden cry."Jamie!" "Jamie!" My voice was shaking, words blurry. The robot figure appeared in front of me quickly; her voice was obedient and sounded comforting.

"I am here," she replied. Her voice sounded like Siri from the year 2030 to 2050 before they perfected her voice. I was prepared to vent, wiping the tears from my face. My voice was calm. "Sit with me, Jamie" her robotic figure quickly rolled to the left, extending outwards, lifting upwards, then finally joining me on the couch. I looked around the small, colorful living room. I turned my body fully, now facing Jamie on the couch. I placed my soft human hands into her cold robotic fingers.

"I need you to be honest with me, robot woman to human woman," I said slowly. Her eyes flickered from white to orange, indicating she understood what I needed from her at that moment. She was processing, and then she responded."Now, Entering, woman to woman mode." I took a deep breath, exhaling slowly. My voice was still shaking, not yet ready to receive the answers I was looking for. Still, all at once, my words fell out, "Jarret doesn't respect me? He says that he loves me, but he checks out other women in plain sight; he's conflicted with who he wants to be and who he is. Would he cheat on me, Jamie?"

My eyes stared deeply into her robotic white, cold eyes, waiting... then, after she processed, she was ready to respond. "Delilah, Jarret ain't shit, leave him now, get out before marriage and kids, your intuition is correct. Will Jared cheat?" she stopped and began to process again. Finally, she responded, "Scanning Jarret's physiological indicators such as blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and skin conductivity, processing polygraph, processing polygraph, processing polygraph, all interactions all conversations, processing polygraph. Delilah, Jarret will indeed cheat on you with his Ex, Brittney. It will be what he calls a mistake".

My tears jetted out like a broken lawn sprinkler. How did I become this person?

Suddenly, Jamie's robotic face began to transform into a screen, and speakers popped out the sides of her metal neck. "Now Entering Vizio Teli- screen mode." The screen turned bright white then in the blink of an eye, a woman appeared on the screen her hair was pin straight blood orange, she was wearing a fancy pencil skirt, with a blazer, she looked like a corporate lawyer. "Hello," her voice was seductive and calming. It was like she was talking to me directly. She smiled from ear to ear. "Are you tired of your burden of a boyfriend? Does he lack integrity? Conflicted and confused about who he wants to be? Can only have sex once a day, Maybe Twice, If you give him a 6-hour gap to rejuvenate? Are you in your living room, crying your eyes out to your Jamie-Bot? Well, I have a solution for you."

I was completely frozen, and my eyes stuck on the screen; suddenly, a planet appeared reflecting white, red, orange, brown, and yellow shades. The orange-haired woman continued, "Planet Manhood is your solution and only the fifth planet out from the Sun."

My eyes widened; that's only a day's flash pass fly, being only two planets out from the sun.  I thought in my mind. The oranged-haired woman continued. 

"You deserve for Jarret to reach manhood. This planet is for you; with a manhood chip safely inserted into the arm, Jarret will be the man you deserve. Come visit Planet Manhood, a Utopia for all women just passed mars".

The Vizio Teli-screen went completely black. Jamie-bot began to shift back; her soothing robotic voice continued, "Now Entering Face Mode." Her eyes turned white. She was processing, and then she spoke, "Woman to woman mode completed." My tears stopped. There was hope in my voice; I spoke slowly. "Thank you."

END.
