《Monillas: Human Garbage》Going To School
Advertisement
Allaine rises from his slumber!!! Waking up himself and then waving around his body to get on a shape. Even a kid like him knows what he needs to do so his body can get in shape, that is, to warm up!
After spending time to warm-up, he takes his bag and takes off again to scavenge some trash. But just as we were about to go... his neighbor, Aling Sunset, stopped him...
"Hey! Allaine!!! It's Monday, right!? So go to school already! I will look for your siblings, so here..."
He approached Allaine and asked him to stretch his hand, after that... he gave him a 10 Peso Coin!
"Sorry, this is the only thing I have... this your allowance..."
Allaine immediately closed his fists and said to his aunt with a smile:
"No! This is more than enough!!! Thanks!!!"
"Now, go on! Bring your things, and go to a nearby carwash so you can wash!"
Allaine did just like that, he immediately runs to get a plastic bag and he puts all of his things inside!!! Bundles Of paper, a pencil that is too short to even handle and one notebook. This is the only school supplies he has, but because of the school's and his classmate's consideration, he was able to pull through!!! Even in his school, or even in this mountain of trash, Bayanihan never fades!!! It continues!!!
After putting all of his things at the plastic bag, he shouted:
"I'll be back later!!!"
Then run full speed ahead downhill in the mountain!!! Like a rock rolling downhill at a crazy fast pace, Allaine does the same!!! Not even having any thought that he can be injured!!! After a few minutes of running, Allaine finally reaches it!!!
He's now outside!!! Outside of the mountain and piles of trash! He's already been outside so many times before!!! But for some reason, he felt that this day was special!!! Why!? He doesn't know why this is special, but he just knows... that... continuing to do this will be something he will never regret!!!

Allaine ran towards the nearest carwash that he always goes to and shouted:
"Hey, sir! May I take a bath here again?"
"Oh? The boy in that mountain again, Allaine It is? Sure, why not? Going to school?"
"Yes!!!"
With a smile on his face, he goes on towards the hose and took it!!! The owner opened the faucet and the water comes out in a raging manner!!! The water's flow was strong!!! The strong water comes out in the hose and touches Allaine's delicate skin!!! Like a dog that was licking his master, It tickles him!!!
Using the strong water that Is somehow tickles him, he washes every part of his body!!! After he washes, he just raised his hand and the soap was thrown to him!!! He reflexively caught it, then washed with It!!! After that, he washes again with water and finished!!!
After that short bath, Allaine feels It again!!! The feeling that he's already clean, fragrant and someone presentable!!! He feels it!!! Feeling this kind of emotion makes him more fired up to go to school!!! He's fired up!!! Like a campfire who just got added another firewood!!!
"I'm ready!!! Thank you, mister!"
"Anytime, kid! Anytime..."
After he took the bath, he dries himself with a towel and puts on his uniform that he just stores in the locker room of the carwash, since he's going to come here everyday!!! After tidying himself up, he's already complete!!! His uniform is just your normal typical white uniform for a 3rd Year High School!!!(About Grade 9 or Third Year Middle School Student In The Current Philippine Curriculum)
After that, he took his plastic bag again and walked... he doesn't like his uniform and himself to get dirty so unlike earlier where he's a rolling rock, right now, he's a koala who moves very slowly and carefully!!! He walks towards the school that will build his future!!!

After walking for a half an hour or so, he finally reaches it!!! The sign that says:
"Santo Niño High School"
He puts a smile on his face and enters his school. As if a bright sun, he looks at his own schoolmates with a smile on his face. Some smiles at him back, others ignore him. But his brightness still remains... but his brightness suddenly got dimmer when he already reached the school gates... and the guard asked him...
"Hey, where's your ID?"

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
