Chapter 42 Nous Phones
David stared at the new phone in his hand. It was beautiful but as usual, that was all. The measure of a smartphone wasn't just it's casing and how it looked.
It's software was what mattered the most and as of now he had yet to encode one into the phone. It was just higher-grade junk, he still needed to create an Operating system that will suit the device.
"Let's get started on the O.S." David said as he plugged in the device to a box-like device nearby. Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates
As soon as he did so, he moved to a monitor close by. This was where the real work began; the quantum chip and all other advancements in the phone would all be useless without this part.
[I am ready when you are, sir.] Nous responded
"Okay then," David replied as he began creating the operating system for the phone.
Of course, he wasn't actually the one doing the creating. Nous did that part; his duty in this was to simply design it, just like a graphic designer would design a flyer or a logo.
Whatever he made, Nous would bring it to reality after refining it.
Despite such an easy process, David still spent hours on it. It was easy... Or at least was said to be easy but he was no graphic designer, nor did he have any experience dealing with such interfaces.
Nous did most of the work by refining his shabby work into masterpieces that will probably be liked by all. An hour later, a fully functioning operating system was done and encoded into the phone's hardware.
All that remained was testing and that part was easily done. He could simply give it to a number of people to use for a month and after that, they will tell him how it was
However, he didn't have that time, so he needed to use it for a day. He may have only recently learnt about the inner workings of a phone but when it came to resting the limits of one, he had bountiful experience to draw from.
"Come to think of it, will this things OS even support regular apps" David asked finally thinking about the main problem.
Classic apps worked with different programming laws to quantum applications, the device in his hand of used for its original purpose could be used to figure out new medicines.
Develop and cure diseases. In simple terms, quantum technology as a whole didn't mat h civilian use and he was trying to do that.
Classic apps from the play store or the Apple store will probably never work on the phone, so he needed a way to make that happen.
[That can be achieved by simply working with Google before the release of the phone or I can add in the function that automatically recodes any downloaded app into a Quantum application] Nous suggested
"That could work... But wouldn't partnering with Google be better, I mean they own Android... Your Nous OS may be superior, but they are the existing one now"
[That is not advised sir, Android is an open-source operating system. Google may own it but it can be used by all, I believe that adding a classic to quantum code to the operating system will solve our issues though it will need to be registered with them first]
David walked out of the lab and straight into his bed room. It was time to sleep, there was nothing left for him to do anymore.
The phone was done and all that remained was to test it, Fadila was handling the patent process as well as the construction of the factories and buildings under the company.
In simple terms, all was going great. As soon as he came up, he found that Fadila had yet to return. The car was missing which meant that she was still out there.
"8:12 and she's still outside, what happened?" David complained
He couldn't hide it nor did he ever deny it. He was possessive and if anyone saw that as a flaw then they probably don't love their wife enough.
"Nous, please call her"
[I don't think that would be a good idea now]
"What?... Why?, what is she doing?" David asked already imagining the worst possible scenarios
[It may be best for you to hear it] Nous said as the sound of several cars honking and shouts could be heard all over the place.
"Madam move your motor na, abi na because you carry big car!!" A person shouted
"Which kind witch be this one na, Oga 1 no dey change lane like that na... I swear if you scratch my car, thunder go fire you"
The insults were unending and amongst them was Fadila whose own voice was drowned by everything happening. She was neither cussing anyone nor was she shouting at anyone.
However just as they were frustrated, so was she. Seeing the situation, she was in, David immediately smiled and thanked Nous.
[It's a pleasure serving you sir]
Abuja may not be known for traffic due to its good roads and all but traffic does occur every now and then and Nigerians aren't exactly the most patient people around.
He understood why Nous had suggested not to call. He overprotective tendency would not be seen as cute or good in this situation, she would instead pour out all the anger from that situation on him.
Since he didn't want to be on the recieving end of that, David simply took his bath and decided to wait in the living room.

1. Oga means boss but most times it's used in an insultove way or just simply when you don't know the person's name
Also I will be stockpiling for Next month's win-win after this chapter... So what do you think his next edit should be
