- THE CAN AND THE FUTURE
- by THE GNN/DualCrew-Shining/uXu
-
-
- The stocky little salesman smiled and watched me closely as I made my way
- around in his tiny shop. I looked for something that I had searched for a
- long time now.
- "Good morning, Sir," he said and revealed a strange accent. "How are you
- doing today?"
- "Oh, just fine, thank you" I lied with a merry voice.
- My eyes fell on a metal can behind the counter. The salesman immediately
- noticed my interest.
- "Are you interested in buying... The Can?" he asked.
- "What does it contain?" I asked.
- "Whatever you want it to contain."
- Excellent. I had found what I had been looking for.
- "How much does it cost?"
- "Whatever you want it to cost."
- I realized that I was in a hurry. If I did not buy The Can at once,
- someone else would steal it from me. And I had no intention to let that
- happen.
- I told the salesman what I wanted to pay. I must admit that it was a
- terrible losing price. But he did not stop smiling.
- "And... its content?" he asked.
- "The future."
- "A good choice."
- I brought up my wallet and paid the man. Then I rushed home. I held The
- Can in a firm grip, afraid that someone would snatch the precious object from
- me.
- As soon as I had closed the door to my home behind me, I began working
- with The Can. Slowly, I opened it while I wondered what I was going to look
- for. The thoughts danced around in my head. Where to find the winning ticket
- to next week's lottery? Tomorrow's news? A sneak preview of my future
- partners?
- But I quickly forgot those humble dreams. All my plans went down the
- misery drain; The Can was empty.
