Chapter Five

Megan finished her burger and pushed her plate away. "That was amazing. I never thought I'd like a bison burger, but I really enjoyed it." She tilted her head to one side. "Are buffalo still almost extinct?"

"They roam openly on the range, and a lot of farmers breed them. They're a staple of our diet now, because the meat is so lean and healthy."

"I'm sure it wasn't just the meat but how it was prepared. I will not complain about food any time soon, I'm sure." Megan rubbed her stomach, happy that it was finally full. She'd been famished since she'd arrived in the twenty-fourth century.

Tessen smiled and nodded. "Boudreaux is a good cook. That's the reason I chose that particular model."

"How many models of robots are there?" she asked, shocked that there were actual varieties of robots.

He grinned. "How many models of cars were there in 2014?"

"I have no idea. Way too many to count." Why would he ask that?

"Exactly." Tessen got to his feet and caught her hand, pulling her to her own. "We'll have dessert in a little while."

Boudreaux rolled over and looked at Tessen curiously. "Why later? You always eat dessert right after you meal, Mr. Tessen." He looked like he was genuinely concerned, and Megan wanted to laugh. A robot who acted like a mother hen? He was going to be fun.

Tessen looked slightly annoyed with the robot, but his eyes stared into Megan's as he said, "Because we need a little nap first."

"A nap? You never take a nap. Are you feeling ill? Should I make some chicken soup for supper?"

"I feel fine, Boudreaux. I don't need soup." He leaned toward Megan and whispered, "I need my wife."

Megan blushed. "We'll be back after our nap, Boudreaux. Don't worry." As they walked out of the kitchen and toward the bedroom, she shook her head. "Do robots understand things like sex?"

Tessen shrugged. "There are robots who are designed for sex, but domestics don't really discuss such things. I don't know if they know or are just programmed to not talk about it. Of course, that made that situation slightly awkward." He'd never realized he could feel awkward around a robot, but Megan brought out new feelings in him.

"I'd rather have an awkward moment with a robot than with a real person."

They reached the bedroom, and he opened the door wide for her to precede him. "Oh, I would, too." He sighed. "But now I get to have an awkward moment with my wife." He paused looking for just the right words to say what he needed to say. "I know from my history lessons that the second half of the twentieth century and the first half of the twenty-first century were considered an age of sexual discovery. Everyone was sleeping with everyone else, from what I can tell. I'm...inexperienced, though. There were no girls to practice on." He hoped she understood what he was trying to say, because he was well aware that he was botching things up.
