Earth Heart
Computers. Floor to ceiling full of
computers. The ceilings seemed so high, so far away, like the sky. It made my head spin to see so many of them
all at once; the flickering lights from each screen danced and made shadows
across each other. The room was filled with the eerie hum of computers. I
glided forward smoothly into the room. How could I find a switch, just one tiny
switch here in a room filled with computers? The door whirred shut behind me,
just missing my cybertrack by an inch. I wobbled, slightly thrown off balance. The
seat I thought was empty spun round and I looked into green eyes that gave me
another shock so like the one I received when I saw my mother’s face again.
“Father.”
