Closet

    “It's a bit too cold today, isn’t it?” Eva mumbles to herself as she walks into the room.

    It is always hard to adjust the freezer in the dressing room. The high temperature is bad for the garments, but her actions would take more time to respond if it is too cold. As Eva slowly turns up the temperature control panel on her arm, she feels a little bit better.

    “This room is boring.” She thinks. “Maybe I should decorate it with some flowers just to make it nicer. It’s almost Valentine’s Day anyways.”

    She turns on the lighting control. Cold white LED lighting lightens up the rest of the room. Big metallic drawers show up on the wall. The drawers reflect the white light onto Eva, Eva reflects it back.

    Cruel, lifeless symphony.

    She walks around the room and checks the status of each garment inside the drawers just to make sure they are still in good condition. Bad garments stink up the drawers, even though she can’t smell them.

    “A bouquet of roses would be nice. They have a sweet fragrance too.”

    Eva notices the red warning status of a garment named Jeffery. She pressed a red button on the drawer and the garment was instantly recycled. It would take a while for new garments to come in, but she has plenty in stock.

    After the routine, Eva’s eyes are fixed on one of the top drawers named Mary. She is the most recent one, just came in yesterday. Eva lifts herself up to the height of the drawer and pulls it out.

    Inside the drawer lays a piece of perfect, fresh human skin.

    “So, beautiful lady, shall I be you for the rest of this wonderful day?”
