Discovery
I wake up check around the room feeling a cool breeze in the morning was uncommon during the start of the summer season. Seeing the balcony door swinging means i left it open last night before i slept. I tries swallong i little saliva and realized that the swelling in my throat has gone down quite a bit, i swore never to go drinking a full 9 hours again with Jegs and Uncle Onio.
I picked up my phone to check the time, it was a phone lent to me by Auntie Bean since I didnt have one of my own, 6:30am, I dropped it and took a long drag from my 50mg salt nic vapping pod and felt a little dizzy from the high nicotine content. I rubbed my eyes and took off the comforter and picked up my phone, vapping pod, lighter and cigs and headed to the bathroom to do number 2.

I am Yeng, i turned 33 this year and was getting old, i dont have a univeristy degree and was unemployed. I have a wife and 2 kids, I have been with with Cheska for a little more than 6 years now and have a 2 year old son Divi and an 8 month old son Theo. We live in a compound of houses owned by my parents with no worry for food and expenses since my parents were well off, that also ment that we didnt have any to spend for personal vacations or wants but this would seem to be the start of a great change in my life.

I sit down on the toilet and lit a cigarette while trying to rub the sleep out of my eyes, after taking 2 puffs I opened my phone to see a notification on the screen
FIRMWARE VERSION UPDATE OMEGA 2.0 AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION PLEASE CONFIRM.
(CONFIM) (CANCEL)
Knowing that my phone only ran on ICS 2.3 I checked the remaining storage capacity of my phone with the required space of the new firmware. Having only a basic storage of 16gb on the phone was a problem, but beggers can't be chooseres, only 2.7gb of space left. 100mb required for installation.
"Its a small amount so lets do it" i told myself while tapping on confirm.

I put the phone on my knee and waited for the update to finish while i continued to smoke my cig, watching the smoldering end glow while i took a puff the phone screen lit up..

Seeing the notification my eyebrows furled and thought "what the fuck? Astral Connection?" never hearing about an astral connection before made me curse under my breath, i clicked on the changelog amd whispered "what the fuck did i just do".

The cig that i held has burned down and singed my fingertips taking me out of the daze that i was in, "what the fuck, what the fuck, what the effing fuck!" I took another long drag from the pod and the nicotine calmed me down. I looked for the icon for the astral shop and tapped on it.

Then i took a look at the current screen

"PUTA ANG MAHAL"(bitch so expensive) I said to myself, 100 dollars just that i can have unlimited power on a device of my choosing for 5 days is too much. I decided to get up from the toilet and make a cup of coffee while checked on the other features of the firmware. Flushing the toilet then washing my hands i went down to the kitchen and made a cup of coffee. I brought it to the backyard and sat down on one of the steps leading outside and lit another cig, while tapping on virtual storage icon.
STORAGE INTRODUCTION
Tapping the deposit button will open the phone camera and let you choose what to deposit from the cameras field of view, time does not exist in the storage hence nothing will breakdown, spoil or ferment in the storage. To withdraw from the storage make. Sure there is open space for items to materialize on. Tap next to continue.
I saw a grid with measurements of 2 meters by 2 meters with 2 buttons on the top saying deposit and withdraw, looking around i saw the antique table in the backyard and wanted to try it out, i tapped on the deposit button and the camera on the phone started, aiming at the table i tapped on it and the table disappeared. Hurriedly i check on the storage and saw that the table was there occupying a little less than 1sqm. I tapped on withdraw then the the table and it reappeared in front of me. I did this cycle 3 times just to make sure it was not a fluke. A huge grin was on my face as i was formulating plans that would make use of this virtual storage space.
