Automatic Girlfriend - Chapter 4

If the question was where did I work, the answer wasn’t sufficient to impress any girls that I knew. I worked as a computer repair specialist as part of a small electronics store. People brought in their broken products, and then we overcharged them for simple services that even a monkey could handle. Technically, we weren’t allowed to do major repairs. I had the knowledge to refurbish truly broken computers, but I didn’t have the permission to. Thus, if there was anything wrong with it that a factory reset couldn’t resolve, the store protocol was to send it back.

I worked in the back of the store on my own bench. There were several laptops around, and a bunch of parts that made us look like we were busy. That wasn’t the truth though. My boss was just a bit of a slob and a hoarder. He didn’t like to throw away any computer parts, even after we told him they were completely broken. He always seemed to think a burnt-out power supply or a ten-year-old graphics card might come to a sudden use for some reason. I could only oblige him and do what he demanded.

I didn’t mind it so much. I got to spend the majority of the day in the back working on refurbishing computers. I didn’t have to deal with the customers very often. Boss had hired a girl who worked in the front. She was a short bubbly girl who got along well with the customers. Well, most of the customers liked her for two particular reasons, and those were located on her chest. She had large breasts, and they caught the eye of any guy who came into the store. Some guys came to the store just to eye her. I wasn’t sure if she was aware of it though. Because she was short, people were always looking down at her, and if their eyes fell a few inches shorter, could she tell?

“Aaron! I’m bored!” A voice cried out.

I jerked as two things popped into my vision. I lifted my head to look at a pouty face glaring up at me. She had her hands on her hips for added effect.

“What do you want, Danny?” I asked dryly.

“You’re not busy, right?” She asked although she was already pulling up a seat.

The stools at the workbench sat somewhat high, so she had to struggle to get up on the seat. Once she had finally made it on top, she shot me a glare, as if daring me to laugh. I had already turned away and started entering commands into the laptop I was fixing. It was a fairly simple job. Press enter, wait until the loading bar was finished, then press enter again. Suffice it to say, it wasn’t taking any of my mental capacity.

That’s when a strange thought came into my mind. If I chose the right options, would the doll I had end up resembling Danny? I had already seen breast size and color changes. Would height become an option too? I shook my head as soon as I had such thoughts. I wasn’t interested in Danny. I just had too much time to think. That was all.

Danny took my head shaking as an answer to her question, and a big smile formed on her face. “We don’t chat enough. Tell me about yourself.”

I shot her a side look. “There is not much to say.”

“What about your love life?” She grinned. “Do you have a girlfriend?”

Of course, I thought about the sex doll first, and that caused me to blush. Danny noticed the expression I gave and immediately jumped to a conclusion I didn’t want her to make. Her eyes widened in surprise.

“Who is she? What’s she like?” She asked.

“It’s nothing.” I tried to correct the situation. “I don’t have anyone.”

“You do! You do!” She declared, then puffed out her cheeks angrily. “Jeese, you’re trying to keep something like that from me!”

I let out a sigh. I could work harder to correct her, but I didn’t want to do that. Even if I did explain some things, I would never mention a sex doll. The fact that I had already lied to my roommate about it was giving me enough stress.

I kept my mouth shut for the rest of my shift, and even though Danny was extra annoying this shift trying to get it out of me, I insisted I didn’t have a girlfriend. Thankfully, I didn’t work full hours. This was part of the reason I needed to sell refurbish things. This job paid food and rent, but if I wanted any savings I had to do that on my own.

I finished up my work and then started packing up to go. By that point, some customers had started to trickle in and Danny had found herself too busy to annoy me. That gave me the time I needed to get my work done as quickly as I could.

I was surprised to find myself a bit eager to get home to the doll. My original intention was to sell the thing. It was just a sex doll. Yet, I was excited about it. I didn’t know if that made me a loser or what.

“Aaron.” I jumped as Danny spoke my name directly behind me.

She giggled and then handed me something. I looked to see her number.

“Wh-what is this?” I asked.

Was Danny bugging me about a girlfriend because she was interested? Did she seriously want to date? She was too young and also irritating. I didn’t think we’d have anything in common. However, what guy wouldn’t immediately be excited by the thought of a girl asking him out? My momentary swelling excitement was immediately popped.

“We should double-date. I’d love to meet your girlfriend, and you can meet my boyfriend.”

“I see…” My shoulders visually collapsed as I felt like I had just been punched in the gut.

She insisted I take her number just in case, but my momentary joy had been turned to crap. Not only was she in a relationship, but she was the second person today who was convinced I was in one too. That would only make it that much harder to find a real girlfriend.

I got onto my bicycle and started pedaling home. Yeah, I rode a 10-speed bike. I couldn’t afford a car right now, and this was about the only exercise that I got. I wouldn’t be able to see into people’s trash if I was driving in a car. Well, that wasn’t a benefit that I should broadcast.

Home was only a fifteen-minute cycle away. I locked my bike up and took the elevator to my floor and returned to my apartment. I had only worked six hours today. Keto worked an eight-hour day, so there were about two hours where I didn’t have to deal with him at all. It wasn’t that I didn’t like hanging out with Keto. He wouldn’t be my friend and roommate if I did. However, I was also a guy who liked my private time.

That private time also meant time with my new doll! It was a new toy. There was no doubt that I was going to use it some more. I did still have to come up with an explanation for this supposed girlfriend, but that could come after. At that moment, I just wanted to unwind.

I unlocked and opened the door to my room, and then I froze. Staring at me was the sex doll. That was to say that she was sitting up in my bed, the sheet tucked around her thin waist, and her hands in her lap, patiently waiting for me. The thing was, I hadn’t left her in that position. I had covered her with my blanket from head to toe. I was trying to hide her from Keto.

Keto didn’t have a key to my room, and I had just unlocked it. Did he find a way to break into my room? Did he find the doll and then move it just to screw with me? If that was the case, then there was no point pretending. He’d just be laughing behind my back. That jerk!

I huffed angrily and then approached the doll. I checked her out thoroughly, and I couldn’t find anything wrong with her. As my hands wandered over her body which so closely approximated a woman, I found myself growing a bit excited again. Biting my lip, my fingers slipped under the covers and into her snatch.

“Still wet… have you been waiting for me?” I asked, chuckling.

Then, realizing how much that made me sound like a creep, I let out an awkward cough. The doll was completely naked other than my sheet. The sheet tucked around her had fallen, revealing one of her breasts and the artificial nipple.

“I… should get you clothing, huh?” I asked out loud.

Naturally, it was just a sex doll, so it didn’t answer. I decided I would buy her clothing. It was creepier just keeping her naked. However, that would come after. First, I wanted to try her out again.
