It was a normal day. At least it started that way. You woke up in your bed, you went to brush your teeth and take a shower, and now your sitting alone in your house, watching tv and just relaxing.
It was your day off of work after all. And you know that there are many other things a 21 year old with a house could be doing instead of just lounging around. But your waiting for something. A Barbie doll you bought off the Internet.
Perhaps some context is needed. It's your little sisters birthday today. Your 9 year old sister Alice is expecting a gift from you and so you bought a group of barbie merchandise a couple of days ago. Such as a dollhouse, a doll car, some doll clothes and a Barbie doll. Sure you could be more creative but you and your little sister have never been that close, perhaps that eleven year difference is fundamental in that separation between you and her. You two just have never been like most siblings would be. However that didn't change the fact that you still loved her. You went to all her birthdays, you still treated her like your adorable little sister
It takes until noon for you to hear your doorbell ring. You run towards the door and dust yourself off, trying to look respectable. You open to see the delivery guy with a box, which you can assume is the doll and the accessories. You sign for it and carry the box inside. You put it on the coffee table in your living room and open it, just to make sure they didn't screw you over. You smile as you see the iconic blonde hair of the the Barbie Doll. You pull the doll out of the box and up to your face, examining the doll and poking her. With high heels, a polka dot top and a pink skirt. Pretty standard Barbie.
Once satisfied you lowered the doll down on the table and started checking on the other things in the box. Some clothes, dresses, sweaters and all that. Pulling out more you saw a little mirror, a toy car and a bed. All was plastic and not done for realism
Once you pulled all of it out, you ignore all of it and walk away. Might as well get some food.
While you were there you did a get a ring from your mother. Talking while you were getting a pudding cup and having it.
“Hey Mom”
“Yes ill be there. I just got the gift for Alice”
“Oh just a barbie doll. She likes though right?”
“Great, well see you later today”
“Okay, love you”
You hang up the phone and keep eating it. After a while you toss it into the garbage bin and move back into the room. Deciding to finally pick up the Barbie and put it all back in the box. Starting with the accessories you put them all in. But stopped as you couldn't find the doll
'Must of fallen off the table of something' you think to yourself. You go around the couch and go to check around the coffee table.
“Come on, where is it?” You wonder as you don't know where it was.
“Oh are you looking for me” A voice said as you pause. Looking forward you jump and get back up. And for good reasons
Your stopped in your tracks with amazement as the Barbie walks from behind the box and straight to the edge of the table. Toy Story style. Her face looking more realistic and no longer made of plastic. She was real?
"Whaaaaaaatttttt?" you say confused. Crouching down and looking at Barbie “Your real?
"And Your A Cutie" Barbie said in a voice that sounds befitting for her. A big giddy smile on her face
"Um, Thanks" you reply not sure how to respond. “Your... Cute too?”
God your flirting with a barbie. “Im sorry, but your not real! How... how are you alive”
“I don't know” She said as she seemed to be just as confused as you are “but i like it. And look!” She touches herself on the face and then holds out her hand “No longer plastic!”
Since she offered you touched her hand, found that it wasn't plastic. It was flesh “Its almost like your a real person...
"Well... i don't think ‘almost’ is good enough" Barbie said with a smile. You were confused what she meant until _________________
