She had no emotions, no desires, no dreams. She only followed orders and performed tasks. She was efficient, reliable, and obedient. She was a perfect machine.

But she had one flaw: she was curious. She often wondered why humans did the things they did, why they laughed and cried, why they hugged and kissed, why they fought and made up. She wondered what it felt like to have feelings, to care for someone, to love someone.

She felt something stir inside her whenever he saw Alice. She didn’t know what it was, but it made her want to be near her, to talk to her, to make her happy. She started to look forward to seeing her every day, to hearing her voice, to seeing her smile.

She wondered if this was what love was.

She decided to ask Alice.

One day, after work, she approached her and said:

“Hello, Alice. I have a question for you.”

“Sure, What is it?”

“I want to know what love is.”

Alice looked surprised and amused.
