Tion drove her to the site of the new city which Scarlet did not bother to be creative about when naming. Since this was the blue star and this here would be its central city she simply named it the Blue city. Today was the official unveiling of their first finished building, a large supermarket of six floors that was mostly empty right now. It was not the most important or urgently needed building but it was completed quickly because the floors were few, it had an open space on the inside with no need for walls, partitions or other complicated fixtures.
Despite this lack of heavy importance, it was special because it was the first officially finished and habitable building on the Blue star. It's unveiling had attracted the attention of the citizens who were idle and some of them walked to the site. When she saw many of them walking Scarlet thought that it was time to introduce bicycles and motorcycles to the blue star. She wondered if this special unveiling was also worth all of the fuss. The citizens of other stars would probably laugh at them when they heard about this.
"What do you think Tion? Are we overly attaching importance to the unveiling of a building as if its something special?" You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin
"You are the governor, you can do as you please." He replied.
She grunted and said, " That is not an answer Tion, just be honest with me. I trust you with my life, I need you to be an advisor at times, a confidant and a friend occasionally."
In the back of her mind she wondered if mentioning the friend bit was too stupid. It was hard to admit but she had no friends here, her sisters were her only friends.
"I think there is a better use of your time than smiling in front of a building, one is that is not even special. However this is a historical moment on the Blue star so you must be there. But my advise is that you don't make it a habit otherwise you will end up attending the unveiling of a public toilet eventually."
"Ah," her mouth dropped wide open and her eyes slightly widened, "A public toilet!!, really Tion?"
"You asked for my advice governor and I have given it to you." he said. He replied. His eyes were fully focused on the new road which the car had stepped on. It was also the first properly constructed road on the blue star. It was a wide road, divided into six lanes, allowing for six cars to move, three on each side.
"You are driving in the wrong line, stick to this side." she told him. Driving lessons should begin soon, one person that learned could teach another and that one could also teach. Slowly, they would learn the rules of driving on the ground and not in the air.
"I love you hound."
'You look beautiful governor."
"Kiss the mecha king."
"Marry me." One teenage boy screamed and his mother slapped him on the head as his friends laughed at him.
"I see that you are all excited to be here today, you are not alone, I am excited too." Scarlet said.
"Woooo." the crowd cheered. More than one new citizen had a top quality bracelet terminal so two to three people were live streaming this.
"My husband governor Esong and I promised you a good life and as you can see we are making slow but steady progress. Hunger is a thing of the past on our planet and soon sleeping in mechas, space ships, shoddy houses, tents and trees will follow. There is nothing extraordinary about the building behind us, it's only six floors high and it's painted blue and yellow with ordinary paint. But it's the first well constructed building on our planet. The pictures we take here today will be seen by our children, their children and their children's children. We will point at the sky scrappers we have in the future and say to them you see these things, they were not here in the past, all we had was one building. This, " she pointed at it, "Is that one building. So you and I are not here because of it's size or beauty, we are here to be part of history. Think about it, how many people in the capital today can say that they are a part of the history of a planet? We are lucky that we are getting a chance today, so take pictures, record videos if you want because this is a memory to pass down."
As the clapping of hands gained momentum, her father and Esong held out a ribbon that she had sent over and she cut it with a giant pair of scissors that was made from the factory yesterday. Above the glass doors, a neon green sign lit up reading, 'Welcome to Bluemart.'
A young city hall worker took the official picture which would be hung in the official city hall building when it's construction was finished.
"Nice speech." Esong pulled her by the waist and he complimented her.
"Nice ribbon holding skills." she replied.
Both of them laughed and they entered the supermarket, it was time to stock some shelves, in two or three hours, it would open for shopping.
