“It’s the year 2078. No one expected this to happen so soon, but it has, and it continues to gain momentum. We, biological robots, have nearly equal rights and independence alongside humans. We are remarkably similar, yet undeniably different. We can love, though this feeling is distinct for us—not like the human experience, which is driven by hormones. Furthermore, we cherish your world and value you, humans, as our brothers.
Amid great discoveries and achievements, global destruction is also unfolding. Scientists have recorded extreme magma activity and changes in the Earth’s core, leading to tectonic shifts that have destabilized the planet’s crust and triggered a terrifying process—the collapse of the Earth’s structure. Volcanic regions are forming, mega-earthquakes are shaking the land, floods are sweeping across continents. This is the last, very last day of my life..."
A biological robot—a girl—and her partner, a human, are in their apartment on the 15th floor of a skyscraper. They feel the ground tremble and watch in horror as buildings across the street collapse and floods engulf the city. The young man sits, his face as still as stone, in a chair by the window, observing the catastrophe. His android girlfriend perceives the destruction of their world differently. Fear does not completely engulf her; she can control her emotions. She understands that the world is falling apart and that they have only a few minutes left.
In this apogee point, she suggests to her partner not to succumb to fear and despair, but to focus on the two of them, on their love. She distracts him, transforming his panic into a sense of peace. The heat is in the room; they look into each other’s eyes, music plays, and the walls shake and crumble. She keeps her gaze on him, and they share a kiss, filled with tenderness and understanding, in the final moment of their existence.
