Jenna was on her way back home when she got a call from Tanya, apparently she had doubts about the belt but they were quickly put down and she was reassured that everything was going to be all right. After some idle chit chat and a goodbye Tanya had promised to come by later in the week to pick up the belt.
Walking up to her house and into the foyer she closed the door behind her, putting the shoes and coat where they belonged.Order, she disliked it, but for appearances sake she was willing to play the part, and who knows, it might come in handy someday she thought to herself. She looked at the watch and it was barely three o’clock, thinking that it was too early for her husband to be home. But out of habit she called out anyway.
-I’m home. But there was no response back as she expected.
-I’m in my sexy clothes. She teased the empty house with.
-Fine, your loss then. She put the shopping bags down and made sure the coffee was placed safely.
Picking up her phone and opening her personal app she made sure no one was home, working in security had its perks. The app showed no new entries since she had left the house and she felt as safe as she could. Picking up the bags again and walking into the kitchen where she unpacked the things she had bought while drinking some of that double espresso she had bought earlier.
-Mm, that hits the spot, maybe I can convince hubby to buy and install a proper espresso machine? But it was unlikely to happen.
When she was done she looked at the time again and figured she had some spare time before the husband came home.
Leaving the kitchen and walking to her office, she put her phone up to the pad and it bleeped with a green light. A subtle click was heard and the door was unlocked.
-Have you missed me? She asked the computers standing idle.
-Welcome home, Jenna. It is a pleasure to see you again, and a standard greeting would suggest that yes, I have missed you. The voice said.
-Any news on the targets? she asked.
-Current targets are within normal borders of the working parameter.
-That’s great, did you manage to get inside the warehouse?
-Affirmative, I ran a dual line approach which triggered the defenses and was able to circumvent because of it. The package was rescued but there was a complication.
-Oh? Not from your doing I guess, so it was a third party I assume?
-Correct, do you want me to keep track of this individual?
Jenna thought about it for a moment.
-Might as well, better to know too much than too little.
-I will add her to the list then.
-Anything else to report? Or was that all?
-No, that was all. The voice responded.
-Any idea where my husband is? No, nevermind, let me ask a different question. Does Sir or anyone else in SirTech suspect anything of our involvement?
There was a moment of silence while it tried to calculate the question, she figured since it was such an open ended question it would probably take a good while to give an answer back but she had been surprised on more than one occasion by it’s calculation speed and processing powers
The A.I responded back.
-All indications point towards no one in SirTech or Sir himself are aware of our presence. 307.263.221 possible links were cross referenced and no mention of us.
-That’s just the public records and the few branches you’ve managed to infiltrate. They could still have it off site or in a place we haven’t reached yet.
-You underestimate me, Jenna. You know I have 99.9% coverage of all of SirTechs known and unknown facilities. Jenna wondered if the A.I had pride as an emotion because it sure sounded a bit hurt.
-So we are safe for now, all we need is to get our hands on the two other belts which shouldn’t be a problem. I assume we move on and that you message me as soon as we know more.
-Of course, I will continue as planned and notify you if anything happens, I hope the coffee tasted good. And then it powered down.
-Not that you know what it tastes like anyways. Jenna left the room, the cameras following her every move as she walked back into the kitchen.
A while later her husband came home and she greeted him with a kiss.
-I’ve missed you! Jenna said; She wanted to take him up to the room for some sexy times but knew they couldn’t, it would be wrong and she was sure that her wonderful husband had noticed the change but she couldn't tell him. She was almost afraid to think the thoughts because there might be the off chance that the A.I somehow could read them. A prisoner in her own house, her husband an unknowing hostage and as far as she saw it, there was no way out of it, and god knows she had tried.
-Busy day at work? She asked while helping him undress.
-Mm, somewhat, the goons down at the dock made a debacle about something as usual. Always seems to be something stuck up their asses.
-I’m sure whatever it was that it was very long, and very hard. She snickered at the innuendo.
The evening continued as all the other evenings, dinner, some personal time with each other and then bed time. She couldn't afford to deviate, she hoped that one day she could be free from the A.I and not have to worry and to be able to live a normal life with her husband again.
-Good night, he said while giving her a sweet kiss,
-Good night love, she said while holding back all the emotions and fear. Sweet dreams.
But there were no dreams, as the haunting thought of the A.I watching their every move was on her mind.
