A week without INTERNET pt-1

It was a normal day in the Matthews house. I woke at somewhere close to nine. I got up and brushed my teeth and washed my hair, everything was going good. Mom made omelet and pancakes for breakfast. “Ting” I checked my phone for notifications. I always wanted to learn digital art. I am good at art whether it is painting; sketching, etc. my school had announced that they would be starting graphic designing classes for some students. I applied and according to the notification they would be announcing the winners at 7:00 pm today. I am so excited. I was looking at the details of the news when suddenly

 “I have had enough” my mom shouted

Everyone looked at her

“I’m done with this ungrateful behavior, every day I wake up and make you all this delicious breakfast but what do you do don’t even say thank you mother no your generation is stuck to the mobile phones, I am sick of it” she shouted with anger

Everyone looked at her without having a clue but I think she was upset that we all were on our phones instead off eating or even speaking. Yeah that is a regular day at the Matthews house.

“I have an Idea” she said “I am going to take away your phone for an entire week and he and only then will you get it back”

Of Corse my family when heard THAT started making up excuses including me but trust me when I say her mind was set and she was not going to allow any excuse. Eventually we handed out our phones to her. So this is me living a whole week without internet so I guess stay tuned.

You may have taught I had already gone crazy, well I have. When mom took our phones away I thought it will be a piece of cake but it is harder than it seems. I took out a piece of paper and my sketch pencils but my mind was completely blank on what to draw and then I eventually gave up. Nowadays everything to everything is done on internet without it we cannot do no nothing. It was like 3:00pm so I went to at lunch, it was okay, not that much tasty then Michael and Harold my little brothers both started crying like crazy and in no time food time turned into a food fight.

My mother calmed them down somehow I am just surprised she was able to do that. She made ME clean the kitchen for the mess THEY made I mean like how is that even fair or just but going against mom means you just want an early death so I just kept quiet and did what she said. It took me like 2 hours to just clean the whole kitchen and by the time I was done it was like 5:30 pm. I was so tiered but I then mom had OTHER PLANS for me because after I was done she told me to mow the entire garden field. It was like 45 degrees outside but I had to do it like I said if you disagree with mom you are practically dead in the next 5 minutes.

By the time I was done mowing our big lawn it was like 7:00 pm and I was heads on tiered. I went inside my room and took a deep breath and screamed into my pillow. I am like soooooo bored and I really want to do something interesting but I don’t think when it comes to that me and mom are on the same page. I desperately wanted to do something fun so I went exploring in our house. So I decided to go into the attic. You see the attic is banned to all and every Matthews’s family member. So I snuck up quietly while mom was sleeping. Ok to be honest I found a lot of things that I didn’t even knew existed like did you know that my grandmother was a photographer. I had pretty good time in the attic. When I was there I saw a small wooden box which was completely locked, it looked suspicious. It was made of wood which had a small keyhole in the middle.

For more than an hour I was in the attic looking for a key to open the wooden box. I looked like for an hour but I couldn’t find it

“Dinner is ready “mom shouted from downstairs

I didn’t want anyone to catch me so I rushed downstairs. Mom had cooked spaghetti and meatballs which was so tasty then after dinner I tried to act as less suspicious as I could because I went into the attic. I went inside my room and locked it. I took a deep breath and acted as normal a possible and avoid looking suspicious. I ate dinner went upstairs, locked my room and took out the box from under my pillow. Then I sat beside it thinking how to open it. At first I had the idea of hammering it open but I think that would make a lot of noise so I had to think of something else. Slowly it was 10:00 pm which means bed check timing. Basically it is when mom and dad check if we are sleep. I had o think quick. I had to hide that thing from my parents, I was freaking out like crazy then i had an idea. I took the box and put it behind the clothes in my wardrobe. I quietly lay down on my bed and acted as if I was asleep. Well then I got so tiered so I actually fell asleep so bye.
