Andrew's POV

Frankie and I are kind of like video games characters. We are constantly unlocking knew attributes and abilities. The newest being her ability to cry. Every time we watch a romantic film she cries, and they blue coolant rolls down her face. We went into her the secret base and found a way to make clear coolant, so know it looks like she is actually crying.

After we left the San Fernando Valley, we went on vacation. And where did we go, we went to Silicon Valley. The place people call Startup Heaven. I was the one to choose this. Frankie and I kind of make all the tech they create obsolete, but I wanted to go just because of the gaming. Frankie wanted to see what advancements in technology can do for us. She might even fund someone's startup. We decide to drive there, since it only a five hour drive, and we do not need to eat or sleep. As we make our way into the city, we find an abandon tech building on the edge of Silicon Valley. Frankie tells A.L.I.B.A. to stop.

We get out and break inside. Although it has been abandoned for a while, nice architecture.

"I have an idea Andrew. What if I make this the home of all my start and apps? I can build lower levels and fill them with servers and industrial cooling system. Up above, I can start have a human run business."

"I do not know Frankie. Running the business with just your supercomputer is one thing. But adding humans to the equation might expose us."

"You are right. Humans are an uncontrollable variable. Maybe one day."
