NATHAN
November 3, 1HD
District 2
We are now here at Andrei's room.
I don't understand the weather.
It is snowing, yet the air is quite warm. Sometimes it's cold.
It's almost a week since we left the American Region. Brix is almost done with his travel magazine. Sometime we are talking through chat and calls when we have free time.
"Can we turn the TV on?" asked Eldon. He turned on the TV.
On screen:
"Exclusive: Delta's Ice Age might be postponed, because of the unexplainable frequent changes in climate. Scientists said that Delta will experience 3 month-winter then 3 month-summer. Sounds like normal, but you can feel colder than normal in winter, and hotter than normal in summer. They advised that we should wear sweaters during winter, and thin light-colored clothes during summer" said the reporter
"They called this event as the Hot-Cold Phenomenon instead of Ice Age. This is were Delta will first experience a 3 month-freezing and then 3 month-heating" added the reporter
"This is the news for this morning. Good morning!" greeted the reporter.
"Can we still consider it an accident? When we are turning on a TV, it is always news" said Eldon
Andrei's mobile watch rings.
Andrei answered a call. Then, Justin's holographic image showed up.
"Hello to you persons of the Philippine Region!" greeted Justin
"Justin!? Why did you call me?" said Andrei
"Why? Is it bad? Well, I just want you to know that I'm am not going to create any invention to enlarge the sun anymore" said Justin
"Really? Why?" I asked
"Have you heard about the latest news? The Hot-Cold Phenomenon?" asked Justin
"Yes" said Eldon
"That's the answer. Our fears combined. Extreme cold weather in first three months, then extreme hot weather in another three months. There is no reason to recreate The Enlarger" said Justin
"That's a good news for us" said Andrei
"So, we're now friends?" asked Justin
We looked to each other.
"Sure!" said Eldon
"Well, that's not bad for me" said Andrei
"Me too" said Marco
"I agree" I said.
"I will never forget what you just said. We're friends now" said Justin
"Right" said Andrei
"I have to go. Bye friends from the Philippine Region! See you soon!" said Justin
"Bye!" we said. Andrei ended the call
"New friend, huh?" said Marco
"That's pretty cool" said Eldon.

Time passes. We made a lot of fun. Our last term in the Philippine government is unforgettable.
Eldon and I came back to our previous job. Me as a news reporter, and Eldon as a weather forecaster. Marco went back to PAGASA. We decided to keep him operating and working. Andrei is still the presidential spokesperson since President Dan Stevens isn't finished with his 6 year-term.
New year has come. Still, the last of human races is surviving. This is our second year in Delta.
January 2HD has come, and still going. The 3 month-freezing is about to end, and the 3 month-heating is about to come.
"Hey Nathan!" said Eldon
"What?" I asked
"Aren't you joining me to Andrei's room? Marco is already there" said Eldon
"Come on" I said.
After a few walks, we got here at Andrei's room.
"Hey humans!" greeted Marco
"Here's for you Eldon, and here's for Nathan" Andrei gave a paper bag.
I opened it and saw what's inside.
"It's Brix's second travel magazine!" I said
"Let's thank Brix. It's free" said Andrei
I opened the magazine, and saw different photos of us in American Region.
We are happily bonding in the picture. Flashbacks are coming to my mind will looking at the pictures.
"I think I have to call Brix" said Eldon
He dialed Brix, and luckily he answered. His holographic image showed up.
"Hey guys! How are you?" asked Brix
"Hey Brix! We're fine! How about you?" I said
"I'm working for my third travel magazine" said Brix
"Really? Where are you now?" asked Andrei
"Here at Singaporean Region. It's fun here. As usual, things and places are beautiful here" said Brix
"That's unfair!" said Eldon
"I'm sorry Eldon" said Brix
We laughed.
"Oh. By the way guys, I have to go. We will start going to a waterfall. Bye!" said Brix
"Farewell, Brix" we said.
He ended the call.
By now, things are getting normal. We are still living peacefully, and that's great.
As I just heard, Brix is working for his third travel magazine in Singaporean Region. He's now far from hard problems, I think.
I wonder what other kind of beautiful things will happen for the next days, months and years coming.
Yesterday, we've been dreamed.
Today, we are created and born.
Tomorrow, we will be survivors.
For me, the last of human races are the holders of tomorrow, and tomorrow will be surviving to the multiple threats to their lives. They will fight to survive. They will make sacrifices in order to preserve human races. And that's the reason why we are called, the surviving tomorrow.
