NA: This is my first ever story, so I would appreciate some constructive criticism.

The sunlight woke me up from my sleep as it peeked into my window. I sighed and looked at my digital clock that I kept on my cabinet beside my desk, it read 6:30. I was about to groan in disappointment, but then I realized that today was the day!
You see, when I was a child, I discovered that I had the power to control people if:
People looked into my eyes
I directly willed the command.
I found out about the rules later, but I discovered the ability when I desperately wanted a mobile phone for my birthday, despite being 6, and got one. It was strange my mom and dad were like robots, they just straight up bought me a flip phone. They had no memory of it after, and soon confiscated the phone.
Now that I'm older, I could chalk it up that my powers weren't as strong because I was too young. As I grew, I experimented on people every now and then to test my powers. I found that my power had reached the point to where, user could almost completely control the subject, but could not make them do any actions once out of the hypnosis: For example, I couldn't say, "When I drop my control, you will scream as loud as you can." Or something similar to that, I calculated that by the time I reached 18 years, I would have full control over the subject.
I planned that on my birthday, June, 8, I would do some, "experiments," on my family. I started to get ready for the day. I looked at my reflection in the mirror as I brushed my teeth. I had short, messy brown hair, and a nice tanned tone to my skin, that brought out the brown in my eyes. Occasionally I go to the gym to work out, so I wasn't overly muscular, but I wasn't fat.
I put on some shorts and a white t-shirt, and began to start my experiments. First, was my parents so they wouldn't wake up until I was "ready." I walked into my parent's bedroom, and saw that they were already awake, just sort of chilling in the bed before getting ready for the day.
