Brief Explanation
We want to draw a parallel between real life and games. Games in cell phones - as oppsed to those of video consoles - use the keys for different functions. For example: pressing 5 you shoot, pressing 2 you give a high kick or jump, with 8 you give a low kick. We use the keys of the cellphone to narrate the events of the story.
