Her hologram felt more real this morning than ever before. Maybe it was because I’d barely slept last night, having gotten back from the bar at 4 AM. I could still taste the whiskey in the back of my mouth when I turned on the hologram machine, like I do every day before eating breakfast. She appeared and smiled at me as usual, said good morning to me as usual. But when she moved toward me and touched my arm, it felt more human than laser and light.
Here’s to the future.
