The killer phone

It was a drafty Thursday morning when Jack and his two sisters were sitting at the dining room table in their 47-year-old farmhouse. Jack's birthday was only 2 days, and there was only one thing he wanted… A phone. Jack's mother, Mary May, Walked into the house from her daily stall cleaning. "Hello, kiddos! Ready for a hearty southern breakfast?" She said with that loud but sweet voice she has. "Um mom, we have to get to school in 15 minutes. I doubt we have time for such a big yummy meal!" Lisa (his older sister) said as she laughed quietly. His mother snorted and pulled out some bowls and oatmeal. "Mom?" Jack finally said. "Yes, sugar?"


Mary stared at him for a long minute then said: "I don't know honey them phones be distracted a lot of teens nowadays."  Jack began to beg, " I can handle it, mom, please??? All the kids in school have one and I am the only one who doesn't! Even Fred has one!"  With hardly a breath Mary responded " Fred hardly uses his phone! His mother told me personally that football is much more important to him than textin' on a smart screen." That was her nice way of saying no, but Jack was not giving up. " Please, mom please?" Mary stopped and looked again then said "we'll see"
