Hungry, I walk into my parent's room, their eyes and mind in a digital trace, drowning in gizmo's and gadget's. Sometime's i evey them, only having one or two cares in the world, signal and wifi. I then aske them, "whats for tea?" but its always the same answer, over and over again, "A buiscuit, just go back to your phone and laptop.." they mumble. So I moan and go to the kitchen, all I can find is a week old can of vegetable soup, and a loaf of mouldy bread. I attempt to turn the cooker on, but I guess I saw it coming, no gas whatsoever! So i stuff the bread and soup into my bag and run to my room. I've met alot of people like me online, through facebook groups, I know I sound a little hypocrytical but I only use technology for talking to people like me! People who don't respond to their constant pings and facebook notification's, people who like running wild and free in deserted fields. I met a girl called Ceilia, she hates apple and laptops and she just runs to forests to escape reality for a few hours. When we do go to run free, our families dont notice we are gone...

"Treasure what're you doing awake by this time". I heard my mum voice trailing behind. I shivered,I knew perfectly the rules of not being awake by this time. I would only get scolded at and maybe my phone seized. But it's not really my fault for wanting a distraction from my messy life. I just couldn't take it anymore,I was tired of thinking of my life I was tired of blaming God for the circumstances before me. Sometimes I feel like a burden and sometimes I wished I was never born. Life is cruel and learning from you mistakes doesn't count anymore. I have been told about how things would be fine by my mates. Encouraging words to keep me going, but it's simply not working. I would have committed suicide but I don't want to put my mum through that pain. She is my most favorite person in the universe. "Tress I'm talking to you. What are you doing awake?" I could feel my mum presence right behind me and dare not move. "Mum I just woke up and was just scrolling through Facebook sorry". I said after waking up from my trance. "You know the rules,no phones at night. Don't make me believe you have a boyfriend. Goodnight and put off that phone. Mum loves you. Goodnight Tress". "Goodnight Mum,sorry for breaking the rules. It won't happen again. I love you too". I smiled at her and watched her leave. I was actually texting my boyfriend.. Thank goodness he didn't call tho. That was really close, didn't want my mum to worry about me....
