Tim was a systems technician working for a subsidiary of Cyberlife Systems called Microsoft. Unable to relate well with women, his relationships always failed and he ended up spending a major part of his live alone. That was, until he made a big change—he purchased Mina.Mina is one of the new CyberG Companion models. Almost human, she is ninety-nine and a half percent made of flesh, bone, and blood. She’s very naive about the world and expects Tim to explain everything to her; the cyborgs are completely dependent on their owner to encourage the bonding process. If everything goes as planned, Mina will be the ideal partner for Tim, and fall in love.Other than a few differences, such as her brain containing a few non-organic materials and some important differences at the genetic level, Mina is human. Oh yes, there is one other important difference; she only has a life expectancy of five years.The author’s description of the relationship between Mina and Tim and their short life together is nothing short of amazing! How could anyone not fall in love with Mina? Her childlike curiosity of the world around her makes you feel a genuine connection to her. You know that her life will end, but you keep hoping that some miracle will happen to save her. I'm really hoping for a follow-up story about Mina and Tim.
