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....439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohF2NjbtC1

“Tss. Nonsense” I snorted and didn’t finish the news article on the internet.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVANU1fBorC

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhPc8YLMDj

I sighed.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNVNqi6skp

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. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE4oKAnseQ

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoiU8jhliz

I am currently writing the synopsis of my sci-fi story entitled “Realm of Science.”439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0z3U1E8Tx

I started typing on my laptop. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtoh0uyKwZ

Synopsis: Let’s look further in the future when robots take over the lead role in humanity. Will they be able to succeed in their mission? Or will humans be capable of protecting their worth against them?439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DiPK1Spst

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. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8WqPXyPVS

No, I am not a hater, I ain’t just a fan.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNYBWdg3Jh

I heard my phone beeped. It’s a message from my editor.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEWjyWcaU1

From: Editor Rin 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhO6vcPctX

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. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ1ok3GXOF

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAfwIZzZmN

Tsh! Pathetic.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzXLAIDOfV

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKoqaAalkD

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. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAQP9jwISy

Busy finding my phone in my bag, I heard a loud engine coming up at my direction. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi4lfuyrWM

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!439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4CQmwO6Lf

I waited for the car to bump me but minutes later and I still feel no pain.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7U9Xt9u6l

I slowly opened my eyes.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYVPsA2Znu

“Sorry! Your fault though!” 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjmj60Hxc7

A deep baritone voice spoke. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDgB7XqZxE

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt03ovu8JK

“What a jerk!” I snapped.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOdKanyhpw

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!439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKwkT4GRSf

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxw88RalZf

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. 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgMeoJEPWa

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm557hTX5yw

“The city was bombarded by the government and there is no survivors...” 439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPIFTEThVM

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.439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzyeGMkPUW
