2. 2/14
One day
a visionary in the valley called Steve,
decided to build up the most incredible Company on earth.
A perfect fruit was born and it was immediately bitten.
Many legends have been told on that missing piece.
Someone said that it was a great b(i)te lost in a primitive defrag.
Others said that a mouse bit it and went away
and now he's condemned to run wirelessly on the tables.

3. During His tenure
Steve gifted the People
with exceptional products and
made lives easier and enjoyable.
Unfortunately He had to pass the keys of His Reign,
although He still had a lot to give.
For few years,
He was erroneously succeeded
by Timotheous the fruiterer,
the fastest to grab the keys.
He decided he wanted bigger fruits
and manipulated incorrectly the core,
creating a chromosomal instability
that was transforming
the original fruit into a pumpkin.

4. With the best talents in the Reign,
new phones and wristwatches were created,
frightening even a far away chocolate Reign.
But then,
he decided to help 850+ millions music lovers,
in executing payments with their credit cards.
Before this little revolution was shown,
speculation on the name of this payment system
mounted for days.
Initially appeared to be called
I pay
because effectively is what it's going to happen,
when music enthusiasts and their friends
will make their purchases.

5. Excitedly, the new king tried to seize
the act of paying
and called it
with the name of
the Mother of all Fruits.
Afterwards, the fruiterer trooped everybody
and told them to buy
his new phones and wristwatches.
Finally Timotheus said that
if they were tap-dancing their watches and phones
in front of the cashiers,
while listening to their favorite compilations,
an apple would have paid all their bills.
They all got flabbergasted,
although some of them remembered that
something went missed
and realized they deserved a bit(e) more.

6. One night,
an Italian peasant dreamt
the missing piece of that apple.
He couldn't afford a new phone,
wanted to keep his wristwatch
and didn't believe the story
that was told by the fruiterer.
He realized that the missing bite
was a card
and thanks to some great artisans
he forged one.
The peasant thought that the good King
would have gifted his People with a new card,
instead of asking cards.
