Give Into Temptation

Dave once again read the instructions. "This can't be real..." He took another drink from his beer. "But man if it was..." Dave began to imagine what it would be like to have his own genie. Dave cut his own fantasies off, "It says companion you twat." Dave sighed. "But I mean... a companion wouldn't be bad... It would be kind of nice to have someone else around here... But you don't just make people from powder. This is stupid." He tossed the note down and went back to watching TV.

As Dave sat on his couch watching TV and drinking beer he couldn't stop thinking about the note and the burlap bag. An hour later, after another trip to the bathroom, Dave was back standing at his counter with the note in his hands. "Okay, so it says to use the bathtub, but how the hell do I measure our 75 liters of water?" He thought as he grabbed his phone. After a bit of Googling he figured he would need to fill his bathtub about halfway full if he was actually going to do this. Snatching the burlap bag off the counter Dave slowly loosened the drawstring to see what was inside. "What the hell is this stuff?" Dave mumbled as he stared at the white powder. Resisting the urge to stick his finger into the powder, Dave carefully closed the bag and picked the note back. "Okay I fill the tub, add the powder, and wait?" Dave let out a sigh. "Am I really going to do this?" Dave picked up his beer and took another long drink. "Fuck it. Let's do it." Dave said heading off to the bathroom with his beer still in hand.

A few minutes later Dave was emptying the white powder into his half-filled bathtub. "Fuck!" Dave stepped back from the bathtub covering his face. Some of the powder had almost blown back into his face. Dave stood there for a moment staring at his bathtub. The majority of the white powder sat in the bottom of the tub, while a bit of it floated at the surface. "Why did I think this would work?" Dave said shaking his head. Dave reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. "8 hours from now would be 6am..." Dave groaned at the thought of getting up early on a Saturday. " I guess I'll set an alarm..."
