[Dec 23th 88’/Chicago Apartment/Night]

What a lonely winter night, as someone who wanted to spend the holidays with your mother, it’s come to the disadvantaged of the snowstorm that has separated you. Apparently, it will last until Christmas eve, tomorrow. It will be two lonely night for sure.

You sit in your apartment with your furnace still running, it’s boring and still cold. You inevitably wish some distraction company to lighten the mood, but there’s nothing…Well…There’s something you could…

Bored out of your mind, you head into your mom’s room to look for anything to grab or fiddle while you’re alone at home, You decide to go to your mom’s closet to as the final spot to look, a room she prohibited you to go in as of recently .

Looking around the warm yellow light of the narrow closet, you find something intriguing hidden at the back of the closet. A 2.9FT Good gal doll sits with her eyes closed at the back of the closet, a big doll that still counts as short, she has a red ribbon sits at the top of her black long hair that falls behind her shoulders with her multi colored skirt jumpsuit and undershirt with those white stockings and red Mary Jane shoes . A visible stuck smile to her face and white nails to her plastic hands. You recently were interested in getting a good gal doll, how strange that?

Walking up to her and picking the heavy playtime doll, you get no response from her as you press her abdomen where normally she’d let out a pre-recorded voice line with some basic movement. But she stays still without any movement at all. Looking beside her where she sat, there’s two brand new good gal batteries left beside her, probably being out of the box that came with her.

You carry the heavy doll along with the batteries in your pocket, still not knowing her name due to each doll coming with a different name. Her arms, legs and head bobbing up and down as you take steps to the living room while holding her, the combination of a ragdoll and electronic doll in one. You reach the living room and adjust her to be sitting on the edge of the coffee table with her hands on each side where she sits and legs at the edge with her head looking down still deactivated.

You walk behind her and gently pull the hard velcro of the back the dress, having a clear sight of her battery holder with a lid outline in the back, popping it open and slotting the batteries correctly in her back, you close the lid and put the velcro back together, making her look like you didn’t even touch her.

You walk around the coffee table to look at her, and brace yourself for whatever comes next. You gently put both hands around her soft squishy waist and press it, hearing a click right after the action. Her eyes open, revealing her wide-open glossy emerald green eyes as they blink twice with clicks, her head whirs as she looks forward, speaking her first line when turned on the first time, pre-recorded with a soft and playful voice, her plastic mouth motors beneath moving to match the voice.

”Hi! I’m Tiffany, and I’m your best friend till the end, hidey-ho! Hehehe.” She goes into idle mode right after that line, her head whirring as she looks around the room, her eyes and head looking to the side and occasionally straight at you. Tiffany has no awareness being simply a doll with limited voice line and features, not really looking at you, she looks a bit scary due to the wide eyes, sharp nails and smile but the doll has no evil intent at all.

She continues sitting at the edge of the coffee table looking around in the idle mode until she’s played with, audio and tactile sensors within for hear to indicate where she’s touched and what to say, being able to respond to you from limited basic phrases.

She begins swinging her legs in a robotic and slow manner, whirring audibly from them as she moves her hands to her lap in a slow and soft motion, speaking another idle mode voice line, completely unaware and oblivious to her surroundings and you: “I love being hugged! Hehehe.” She remains quiet as she continues idling.
