A Pickup In 2850

by Christopher T. Dabrowski

Translated from Polish by Julia Mraczny


She was beautiful. A blue-eyed blonde with full lips and large breasts. I knew that if I didn't do something, I would regret it. I can't lose anything I can only gain. I came up to her:

"Hi."

"Hi."

  "Third generation ZX480, titanium skeleton with TX500 system."

  "MB200, first-generation with the B600 system."

  "Nice to meet you. You have a divine body. Did it hurt when you got out of the hyper-system?"

  "I have the MB300. We have a combination of systems shortly," she answered, showing the ring.

  "Eh..." I sigh. "Then good luck, and it was nice to meet you."
