She looked unarmed. "STOP!" he ordered using his falsely deepened authoritative voice. It was a girl, Young, maybe late teens, battered and dirty. Likely half his age. "My parents are dead." So was much of the World's population. The end had come swiftly. But a girl, out here, alone? He couldn't help himself.
A short, about a certain development in sexual experimentation in the future. Zero actual sex but it's all about sex, and very sexually 'charged' I would say. I don't pretend it's a classic or epic action or side-splitting humourous story, and it might not be your 'thing' but it's literate, researched and thought-out and contains an interesting concept. If you're going to give it a score of 3 or 4, you must be a smart reader, so at least take the trouble to give me an intelligent reason why.
The funeral parlor was a large operation. They processed dozens of bodies every week for final resting places. Some were cremated and didn't need the heavy duty cosmetic work to make them look presentable.

If you're familiar with any of my other works, you know you can count on hot sex (wear oven mitts!) wrapped in a funny yarn. Hell, you men out there, even the romantic parts (ugh!) have humor in them. Promise! Yeah, it's Sci-Fi, but there are no space battles; just a character-driven story with lovable characters. It's long, so bring your best attention span!
And, if you find yourself rooting for that slimy, dumb-as-shit pervert Peeping Tom, Bertram Balliwick, well, shame on you! Enjoy.

He quickly realizes that he'"and countless other men across the galaxy'"are being subjugated to provide their seed... as virile fuel for an evermore energy-hungry society.
How convenient to have a Housebot around. She does the laundry, fixes meals, washes dishes, and if you pay for the upgrade, even takes care of your sexual needs. But...
