Cyborg TheoremRemember how they made a movie called Tron and after that made a sequel called Tron: Legacy? That's pretty much how the world is now. Robots and all the technology. People with mechanical hearts can become someone's partner and birds that used to lay eggs now lay microchips.
It all happened in a year. Someone made this great technology where he could transport in and out of his computer without affecting all humanly attributes. Everyone was awed. Now the whole world is a gigantic computer. Some people made the resistance against them and managed to preserve part of the natural environment but I know that someday it'll be gone too.
I, Byun Baekhyun, used to wake up everyday hearing the birds chirp and rest in the tree branches, trying to escape the summer heat. But now, all I see are robotic birds that don't even fly naturally. The world is just that. Metals, electricity, power circuits.
All my friends have gotten their mechanical partners. Luhan's was called Sehun. Jongin's was called Kyungsoo. Yixing's was called Joonmyeon. Kris's was called Zitao. The mechanical partners, an illusion of what a perfect person could be in this impossible world.
I guess I'm the only one who doesn't have a mechanical partner. Even Mom and Dad divorced to get someone who was made out of metal.
I need to find someone real.
