Dave and Kelly loved their computer. Their
parents had gotten it for them a couple of months ago, and they had taught their kids how
to use it. They bought some computer games for the kids to play and connected them to the
Internet. The kids loved going on the Internet and visiting web sites. They
got to do research for their homework, play games, print coloring pages, and read
stories. They also got to e-mail their friends and even chat with other kids, after
getting their parents permission.
Because the kids liked the Internet so much, they would
finish their homework, then go surf the web. Very often, they didn't feel the
passage of time and found themselves almost falling asleep in front of the computer
screen.
One day they stayed up late surfing the web after they
were done with their homework. After a while they started getting tired and they
were almost falling asleep. While they were in the twilight between being asleep and
being awake, they felt a strong suction coming from the computer screen. It felt
like a huge vacuum cleaner!
By now, they were fully awake and when they looked
around but they did not see their living room anymore. Instead, they saw themselves
floating in a long tube with speeding chunks of alphabets, numbers, images, and
sounds.
They were INSIDE the computer! It was their dream come true
and they decided to...
...let loose and drift off into the long tubes and
have some fun,they traveled all over the world even into the white house,they found it
would be fun to spy on people that couldn't see them.They traveled through the tubes to
see things and people they had always wanted to see and do.They got to watch President
Bush on the internet as they were the first ones to know about his new decisions,also they
got to go to Disney world through the tubes and ride each ride as though they were really
on them,they had a blast.
But after a few days they started missing
something and that was the feel of love. Life wasn't all that fun without a hug from their
mama and daddy,they wanted to come home but how could they? There was only one way
and that was through the heart, they had to want to come back so bad that it even meant
they had to listen to the rules of what mom and dad said and study more of school work
instead of playing on the internet so much.
They really missed being made to mind it wasn't
fun doing anything you want to any time and not being a nobody cause no one could see
you.They wanted a hug so bad they brought it through their heart and they finally opened
their eyes as their mother said it is time to get up for school.
