A possible future in less than 500 words, if plastic wins. This was my entry for the WattPad/National Geographic #PlanetOrPlastic competition back in late 2018. It reached their Top 10 Submissions which, given that there appeared to be well over 5000 entries, was a very pleasant surprise! The competition itself had a limit of 500 words so, for those who keep asking if I intend continuing the story, the answer (for now!) is no - unless I can find a very good reason for adding any more. Many thanks to everyone reading and voting on this story and getting it to number 1 in the #sciencefiction category in May/June 2020! I did try to thank the voters individually on their pages but Wattpad have a daily limit on the number of times I'm allowed to do that and there are now too many of you (not that I'm complaining)! Here's the top 10 submissions page: https://www.wattpad.com/list/738243473-planetorplastic-top-10-submissions If you want to read the story in Polish please head over to https://www.wattpad.com/story/236405960-m%C4%85dro%C5%9B%C4%87-staro%C5%BCytnych-t%C5%82umaczenie-pl where @juliatlumaczy has done a fine job - thank you, Julia! @juliatlumaczy has now sent me a version of the cover she used for her Polish translation - thanks again, Julia! @alex_sokolova has also translated the story into Russian as well. You can read that here: https://www.wattpad.com/976002417-мудрость-древних - many thanks, Alex! We now have a third translation! @AlfonsoLucassen has kindly translated it into Spanish and you can find it here: https://www.wattpad.com/1063634347-la-sabidur%C3%ADa-de-los-antiguos

I frowned pushing him away and crossing my arms like a little child. I heard him sigh and soon enough his huge arms wrapped around my neck, nose buried in the crook.

"Bro, she cheated on me" "Who dis?" "Yea, I saw her kissing all over the guy" "Is this an April fools joke?" "I should've confronted her " "Haha this is a horrible joke, you know that?" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What would you do if you got a text on April fools? Any sane person would block the number but Morgan Mae Hearst is just stubborn. Being the nerd in school doesn't bring that much excitement into Morgan's life especially when you're invisible until a certain text comes to her life in April Fools. Instead of blocking the number, Morgan texted him back. Nicolas Klyne found out his girlfriend cheated on him during April Fools. Knowing this, he did the first thing he thought of, tell his friends. Realizing that he informed the wrong number and the wrong person he apologizes but never in a million years would he think that it would be a 'thing'. *WARNING* 1) CURSE WORDS AHEAD!!! 2) 3-4 non- dialogue story ig: @syneshouse A/N: This is supposed to be a quick read. This isn't supposed to have any complicated plots or anything, just the development of two strangers that happens to stumble on each other.
