His hands were all over her while hers were exploring his back . They couldn't keep their hands off each other even after months of dating . What fun they had while making out ? They were simply draining out each other's energy . Basically , they were eating out each other's faces  . Finally ( to your relief ) , they pulled out of the sloppy kiss and stared into each other's eyes . They kissed each other again before smiling . Their business was irking you . It was as if you were invisble . You slammed your fists onto the table making both of them come back to earth . Hana fell off the couch while Suho looked at you in anger . It wasn't your mistake that you are single and have no one beside you to eat his face . 

" You er . " Hana stopmed towards you and hit you on the shoulder making you wince . " It's not my mistake that my bestfriends were making out on the counch when I entered the apartment ." You shrugged your shoulders and  grabbed an apple from the kitchen counter . " We need to change the passcode now Suho ." Hana joked and straightened out her dress . 

" Yeah definitely ." Suho hugged you and grabbed the apple from you hand to eat it . " So how's work ? " Suho questioned and sat on the couch patting the space beside him to sit . " Exhausting as always . I don't know what grudge my boss is holding against me ." You sat on the couch and draped your legs over Hana .  " I think this is universal . Even my boss is so arrogant and grumpy and blames me for every mistake . I don't even understand what my fault was . Even if it was , it isn't like that I can be flawless ." Suho sighed and scoffed .

" Before I forget , how's the research going ? " Suho works as a scientist and his researches are always intriguing . He had excelled in science and was consequently hired by the best research department . Also , he had always been the one to help you in science ; if it wouldn't have been for him , you surely would have been living as a beggar . " It's going good , a smooth sailing for me . We have created a new species of robots now . They can be induced with human emotions now . We've been working on incarting their human counterparts . " 

" That's so cool . " You gasped in surprise and made yorself more comfortable by snuggling closer to Hana . " How about your research ? " Hana questioned and sipped her coffee . " What research ? " You faced her and furrowed your brows in confusion . " Research about Jake . How did it go last night ? " You gulped and faced towards the ceiling thinking about the events that happened last night . " It was fine . So , how are the wedding preparations going ? " You faced Hana and smiled . She rolled her eyes and kept the cup beside her ." Emily you are avoiding the topic again . Did you scare him away like you did to the other boys ? " She looked at you through her narrowed eyelids . You sighed and nodded your head .

" Emily . Why are you doing this with yourself ? " She snapped at you . " Why don't you give him a try ? He is a nice guy . Not only him but also all the other guys I set you up with were nice . I don't know what's wrong with you ." She continued . " Look at me Emily ." She shook your shoulders . You sighed in defeat and looked up to meet her gaze . " Why are doing this ? " You could see the concern in her eyes and you felt bad . Being your childhood bestfriends , Suho and Hana did everything to make you happy . Your parents were divorced and since then you had been living alone . The only people you could count on were them . Thye set up dates for you since they implied you should find someone to love you and spend rest of your life with him . This idea itself scared you to death .

" I-It's just that I'm not ready for a serious relationship . I really ain't  a ' lovey-dovey' girl and I want to be independent . I just want to live comfortably for the rest of my life . For me , love is an abstract idea that I'll never understand and you know why .  I just want to be alone forever , moreover , I have you guys . I appreciate whatver you guys do for me , I know you want the best for me but I don't want this ." You explained and rest your head back on the couch . 

" But you should give it a try for just once Em . Who kows , maybe your perception would change . I mean , look at us-"

" But-"

" Please give it a try for once Emily . For yourself , for us . We want you to come to our wedding with a date . " Suho and Hana looked at you with pleading eyes which made you melt . How did they manage to do this ?

" You win , es ." 

" Why are we here Hana ? " You curiously asked her as you clung to her in the elevator . You had been here many times before but today , today something felt different . You could smell the metals , the odour of the chemicals raeched your nose making you feel a nauseous as you entered the Research And Development Department  . " Just wait and see ."

" Hana ! You didn't answer my question . " Your eyes searched for Hana while she only smiled . What was so special here anyways ? Except , she got to see her boyfriend . " You'll see . Don't worry , you'll love him ." Him . Okay , who is this ' him' ? " Good evening Ms. Emily ." Chanyeol greeted you . The tall robot bowed his head andyou couldn't help but feel amazed everytime his body formed a perfect ninety degree when he bowed . Chanyeol was a robot who helped Suho and the other scientists in their work . Since he was a creation his body proportions were perfect . He was tall , his body as hard as a metal , and his teeth ...they were whiter than a dove . The smile on his face never disappered and he joked a lot too . You had seen mnay robots around , all your neighbors were robots as a matter of fact , but he was the most handsome amongst them .

A premonitory chill crept up your spine as you neared Suho's cabin . You your heels to go back but your best friend pulled you back . Using the IDs you entered his cabin . Hana kissed him and he hugged you . " Just a second ." Suho went outside the cabin and some robots that seemed new to you ( the last time you had visited was months ago ) brought water for you . You gulped it down in a minute , your hands sweating profusely . 

After a few minutes , Suho enetered .....with a robot following him . You couldn't help but stare at the robot . His hair styled as comma and raven black . His skin was nothing but metal , making him look hotter . " Emily , he is Baekhyun . Scientifically , he is called ROB-1275 . Of course , I have created him , for you . He'll be your boyfriend . He has got various modes like-"

" Wait , what ?! " You cut him off . You knew it . You saw this coming . There is this robo-mart in your neighbourhood , where people can buy robots . They can choose their husbands , wives , friends , boyfriends , well any kind of robot they want . You acknowledged this idea but the idea of dating a robot was gross . Of course , this robot is hot and handsome , but you cannot devote your time and attention to a machine which doesn't have any humane emotions . " Can we three talk , alone ? " You requested the robot who looked at you briefly before moving out of the cabin .

" Okay . I hate you two . Setting me up with a robot , it's too much . I kow that the government has now legalised and approved relationships with robots but it doesn't mean that I'll date a robot . " You yelled . " Emily we had no choice . You have rejected many men that we had stick to robots now . Moreover , you're looking for a fling right ? He is just right for that . He'll be there with you for just six months 'cause he a limited edition robot . When his work will be over , so will be his purpose and he'll come back . And why does it matter ? He's just perfeect . He's the first robot created with a some human emotions and also , since he's a creation , he's perfect . " Suho explained you and grabbed your shoulders . 

" Just feel what happens when one is in a relationship . If  you still wouldn't be convinced , we'll never pester you about your love life ." Hana insisted and you just nodded your head . You sighed and sat back on your chair . 

" Fine . I'll do it ." You mumbled and looked down at your feet .

Little did you know , you life is going to change .

You stared , corr
