Chapter 44
The blue cards.
The trio was dining on one of the tables in the cafeteria called My Favourite Place.
It was dark, but the lamps in the cafeteria were all turned on, so there was plenty of light.
âOh, I canât stall this any longer!â William admitted.
âWhat?â Brad asked confused.
âBlue?â Logan said, as he gestured with hands.
âI got a little something for you! I got you two, these two!â William took two new toothbrushes from his pockets and gave them to Logan and Brad.
âWow!â Logan said happily.
âNice,â Brad said as he quickly opened the wrapping of his toothbrush.
âBe careful with that,â Blue said as he watched Brad, âyou wonât get any place to store the brush, but this... for now.â
âI mean, I can always use paper, but all right, all right,â Brad said and he carefully finished unwrapping the toothbrush.
Logan looked at the toothbrush, without opening it, then he looked towards Blue with a smile. âYou are awesome! Iâve been dying to use one of these! I havenât brushed my teeth for some time and itâs weird. Thank you, so much!â
âYeah, no shit, thanks Blue! Thatâs epic!â
Blue nearly blushed, proud from their reaction.
âThanks again, but I have to ask, where did you get those?â
âYou are most welcome, both of you! And, actually everyone gets to have one, starting tomorrowââ
âBut we got them today, because we got connections!â Brad cheered.
Logan smiled happily.
âBut you got connections, yes,â Blue giggled. âIâm glad that you like them. I like them too, because, well they are very soft. Just for your information, they were collected yesterday, by one of our scavenging squads. Some say that this squad was purposely sent to a toothbrush factory, because the streets to the factory were clear and they could just drive there and come back in no time. That factory is right next to the Stadium. Alongside everything important like medical drugs, water, food and everything else, the army thought about our mouth hygiene too. âRoyal Dentes.â Iâve only seen them, but Iâve never even dreamed about buying one. Compared to any other brush, the price tag of these has an extra zero at the back. But I got to admit, this is the finest and most beautiful toothbrush, I have ever hadââ
âYeah, itâs great,â Brad said as he expected the cool toothbrush, âbut what about toothpaste?â
Logan looked at William completely dumbfounded by the obvious question, which he forgot to ask himself.
Blue smiled. âStarting tomorrow morning, there will be toothpaste managers,â Blue said.
âWhat?â Brad laughed loud.
Logan laughed too. âToothpaste managers?â he repeated laughing.
âYup!â William said with a smile.
âAre you kidding me? What will they do? Manage the toothpaste?â Brad added, laughing.
Logan laughed.
âBullseye!â Blue said. âThat will be their job!â
âWhat? Really?â
âWell, every resource we find will be strictly monitored and cared for, which means that the toothpaste needs to be controlled in order for it to last. We may have dozens of boxes but if we just give it away, people may overuse it and abuse the abundance of the resource, the toothpaste.
