Mike

Mike stumbled upon a small store, lost among the bustling streets of the metropolis. A bright display case filled with discs caught his eye, like a shining island in an ocean of gray everyday life. Among the many games, an unusual dating simulator caught his eye. Lonely and a little disillusioned with life, he decided to buy it—after all, why not take a break from everyday worries?

Returning home, Mike carefully removed the disc from its packaging and gently inserted it into the drive of his old but faithful computer. The screen flickered, and a pixelated figure of a girl appeared before his eyes. She looked so charming that Mike's heart skipped a beat with unexpected excitement. The girl smiled and spoke the first word in a welcoming voice, inviting him to dive into this virtual adventure.

The game captivated him with its simplicity and sincerity. Every dialogue felt alive and real, as if the woman he was talking to was actually hearing every word and genuinely interested in his thoughts. Gradually, Mike began to realize that this virtual heroine possessed the traits of a true artificial intelligence, capable of sensing and understanding his mood. Despite this, the feeling of attachment grew stronger, forcing him to forget reality and immerse himself in a world of fantasy and love.
