Matteo's Story

As you open the door to Diego's room it is pitch black except for a little  screen of a computer with a lot of light and the noise of orcs grunting and bushes rustling.Those are the only noises you hear from his room.Diego loved playing video games especially a game called World of Warcraft.Some people might say Diego he is " per plexed"with World of Warcraft, others might say he is addicted to the game but he just thinks it just a game and he can stop any time but that's not the truth. The truth is that he is clearly obsessed with the game. I would say he plays at least 11 hours at a time in a single day.He doesn't even stop to go to the bathroom or take a shower. He even leaves empty cans of energy drinks and soda cans along with dirty laundry and peels of bananas and the core of the apples just lying around the room. And because he is so serious about gaming he has 3 computer monitors so he never misses a second of his game and he invests hundreds and hundreds of wampum into this game that is destroying his life every year. He purchases  1 150 dollar membership. He has been playing for 6 years so that's quite a bit of money and a couple years passed Diego is still playing World of Warcraft. And putting more and more purchases on expansions and memberships and then the money that he has inherited from his gramps runs out from paying rent and stuff in the game so Diego decides to go out and try to get some extra money. So he goes in the parking lot of superstore and smashes the window finds some CDs and money so he pawns everything that he finds and comes out with 60 bucks instantly he takes the buss right to be games and purchases a membership for the game and goes home and starts
 playing so 2 months pass so he decides to go try to break into another car this Time he gets caught trying to hot-wire the car the man realizes Diego story and decides not to press charges on him. The next step for Diego is that he tries to ask his mom for rent money and his mom is aware of Diego's monkey on his back and says "no Diego If you cannot afford your rent then you will have to get a different  place or move in back with us" so that's exactly what Diego does moves in with his parents months pass his parents start paying for his memberships and they do not realize the extent of the problem that he has been going through for about eight years now and then his mom finally realized that Diego should get to stop playing this game for now about twelve hours a day so his mom Big Bertha Q takes him to a Therapist nowadays Diego is down to only a hour and a half week nights, 2 hours on weekends Diego also has a job getting payed 11.50 a hour working around the stuff he likes to do at Eb games.
