The Robots are Coming NEW YORK— Robots are no longer just the realm of science-fiction. Today’s robots are actually becoming more humanlike, or capable of doing many of the things humans do. In the next decades, robots are even expected to take over various manufacturing-related jobs. According to the global forecasting and quantitative analysis firm Oxford Economics, machines will displace approximately 20 million manufacturing jobs globally in the next 10 years. This means some 20 million people are likely to be jobless within the decade. Oxford Economics, however, clarified that automation will ultimately help create just as many jobs....494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytHCBJnTzU

“Tss. Nonsense” I snorted and didn’t finish the news article on the internet.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxq4EEPQbR

I am not a fan of science. In fact, for me, science is just a realm of fiction. It is full of speculation. Yes, some of it may have an evidence but how sure we are that the evidence itself is pure and not just one of their works? I really have no time believing those scientific things. They’re just a fiction—I mean, duh? Robots that are humanlike? Tss, they’re so impossible. We can only see it on TV, but not in reality.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdWlysOSDU

I sighed.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLB3HoSivh

Instead of thinking nonsense, I better get some tea to start writing my novel. I’m currently with my fifth novel since I started writing. Usually, I am writing a mystery-thriller and such things related to mysterious stuffs. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn598D2VgK

But now, what I am writing is all about science fiction. I want to share them my opinions about the existence of science. Maybe I would find some people who believes what I believed in. Some people like me.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzgoJ4JS4N

I am currently writing the synopsis of my sci-fi story entitled “Realm of Science.”494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD139VI9Oj9

I started typing on my laptop. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XfssvZUQm

I am writing this novel not to promote science but to show its negative sides and some of its possibilities that they are not considering. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOqrEOKTLb

No, I am not a hater, I ain’t just a fan.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD4kc0IVqv

I heard my phone beeped. It’s a message from my editor.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9iAmdR2tG

From: Editor Rin 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroJxktWg0P

The producers want to meet up with you. They are interested in your thriller novel and they want to talk about making it a movie. When are you free? This will be a big hit for sure. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqPLZ1qPJb

I rolled my eyes after reading it. How many times do I have to tell them that I don’t want them to buy my novel? They will just mess it up ‘til my novel’s plot is gone. They will just use the fame of my novel just to catch the eye of the viewers and to increase their ratings.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Eye6frccT

Tsh! Pathetic.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOetxZ95xBe

I suddenly lost the urge to write. I heave a deep sigh and stood up, getting my shoulder bag and left the house. I need to unwind.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnt1NbAd1Tm

I am currently walking on the sidewalk when my phone suddenly rang. I planned to not answer it but the caller is just really persistent. So I opened my bag and find my phone in it. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPXYXidAxu

Busy finding my phone in my bag, I heard a loud engine coming up at my direction. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DqhVrl65r

My eyes widened in fear that it might roll into me. I can’t move my body out of shock and just closed my eyes, praying God to save me from this reckless driver!494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PBEMiNnEZ

I waited for the car to bump me but minutes later and I still feel no pain.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej5ct4C1Uz

I slowly opened my eyes.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lrkmUt7kb

“Sorry! Your fault though!” 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrPlGcSu7O

A deep baritone voice spoke. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5skWQcdVY2

I felt my heart fluttered. It’s beating so fast than it’s normal pace. But he didn’t even took a glance at me and started the engine again and drive like he’s a character in fast and furious.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVwTOy2GBG

“What a jerk!” I snapped.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksCkNqKk6q

I made the taxi stopped and get into it. I told the driver to follow the white car and he did. But minutes later, the car just vanished from my sight like a bubble. I’ve lost him... bullsh*t!494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtJowb9xSH

I realized we’re already far from the city but I insisted to just got off here. I walked without any direction at the seashore, feeling the cold waves caused by the sea. I sat down the sand and didn’t mind if I will get wet. I just stared at nothing.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU16jvuoCy

Minutes later and I’ve heard a loud noise that seems like a bombardment was happening in a place near this shore. I also felt the ground quaking. 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe63ocTQjEs

My phone rang again for the second time. I remember I haven’t answered it awhile ago. I abruptly answered it now but what the person said sent chills and havoc in my whole self.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOekSyPy5N

“The city was bombarded by the government and there is no survivors...” 494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8DbT9CZCx

Seems like I got deaf for a minute after hearing those words. I felt like the sky had fallen down on me. I can feel my soul shattering into pieces. My tears flowed as pain consumed me.494Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3tE3EiOCy
