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....723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO5JF1x7gm

“Tss. Nonsense” I snorted and didn’t finish the news article on the internet.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFTm7z6bs5

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbPtZF7Giv

I sighed.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BzG7GTLtQ

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. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLFNkC3fGQ

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghdMyBCSsq

I am currently writing the synopsis of my sci-fi story entitled “Realm of Science.”723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZT4gzLzhg

I started typing on my laptop. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleJ8adchKD

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?723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4I3Z3T7W1

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. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacrlhSYhkt

No, I am not a hater, I ain’t just a fan.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfv4zLMaMN

I heard my phone beeped. It’s a message from my editor.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEHRzd8SqJ

From: Editor Rin 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8NEkT3lRE

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. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsSpMvVe8X

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB5N9uRePD

Tsh! Pathetic.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerQ7YcLcd2

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh68DrLLhu

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. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP6mxh4bsC

Busy finding my phone in my bag, I heard a loud engine coming up at my direction. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Guswzkyo3

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!723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjou0I1kFgI

I waited for the car to bump me but minutes later and I still feel no pain.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4w8Pi2uK5

I slowly opened my eyes.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK6cip6Hza

“Sorry! Your fault though!” 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS6D3KB1at

A deep baritone voice spoke. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaX85WFu4t

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0TOpn2eRD

“What a jerk!” I snapped.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhox9mW02J

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!723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT1klO13qE

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIFW1uE40x

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. 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrctU5bJXX

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgNGi8OKaY

“The city was bombarded by the government and there is no survivors...” 723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz1nc4VFEk

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.723Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhMFXyi3Vb
