Sam the Smartphone

Hello there! I am Sam, the smartphone. I am so famous around the world, that you will find me almost in each and every house in this world. Almost everyone has me. They use me to communicate from one place to another. Whenever someone is sad, I always cheer them up by showing them some entertaining videos. As soon as someone comes home from school, they grab me by my hands and press their fingers on my body.

That’s when the football class starts. I am dropped often, so I have to wear extra shin pads. Continuously using me heats my body quickly. I feel hotter than you can ever imagine. It’s as if I’m in a blast furnace. I am used the most in gaming. All the time my owners are playing some stupid games like Minecraft and FC Mobile. And the mothers! They are continuously shoving me in the large and dark drawer. I am removed by my sneaky owners prying around. Then again, they start playing games or scrolling reels. At the end of the day, I am devastatingly exhausted, but I am saved by my best friend the charger.
