No internet connection for 9 days and water for 6 days- a torture

How we suffered here. It seems like crazy finding ways to reach out the web. Out internet just returned this afternoon. I still have the phobia. I cannot go to the campus to hitch there. We are on summer vacation, so there is one on the faculty office. The reason of the internet default was the cable wires were attacked by some bad elements who were mad about some unknowns. There were more or less 180 homeowners victims of this attack. It took the internet providers 9 days to secure the internet connections of the residences in three zones.
On the other hand, our water is also problematic. It is now off and on style. With this said we alerted ourselves at home and all people in the neighborhood to stock water whenever possible to avoid water crises.
Too long days of worriness that seemed like a torture. To entertain myself from too much annoyance and despair for having no internet connection, I wrote short stories and poems. I will hate you here my short stories products from my troubled mind.

9 days without the internet would bring my life crashing to a halt
No water for 6 days would kill me.

those days were so cruel. Thankful the Internet was restored and the culprit who cut the Internet cable wires was jailed.

@cacay1 I'm actually from Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, in the last two months, the number of Covid case had increased. Recently, according to the government, it's getting better. The number of cases has decreased.
