Late one night an apple was restless, he had a fruit sticker on and it was uncomfortable and itchy. “What are they even for?” the apple wondered.

In the morning the apple studied each type of sticker he could and found out that most stickers had different purposes and varied from fruit to fruit.

One fine morning the apple got picked up by a lady in a blue flowery dress and got taken to a black moving thing, which at the end had a lady in a black uniform standing next to some sort of computer … a conveyor belt, the apple realised.

Later on, the apple got put in a fruit bowl with a bunch of other fruit. All the fruit talked until night. In five days, the apple realised something, something wonderful … The fruit the lady brought home had no fruit stickers on them. The apple asked eagerly and found out that fruit stickers were not in use anymore.

What happened here in this story can happen in reality but it doesn’t have to happen like that, fruit stickers could become reusable, biodegradable or even edible.
