As an optimistic person, I've always believed that I am destined for great things.
Turns out one of those "great things" would include moving into a house filled with men (or boys, you be the judge) blessed with freakish powers that are beyond human...

I decided that no progress was also progress. It being the first time I've met Aro, I decided that it was absolutely okay to have failed to make him eat. At least I can just sit beside him and pretend to be a plant or something.
The documentary was scientific history or Einstein or something along those lines. As much as I enjoyed documentaries on my free time, I was beginning to get distracted by the man beside me. Aro had his body hunched forward, his eyebrows furrowing with concentration. TV was relaxing for me. Aro looked like he was ready to use whatever information he got from the documentary to build a nuclear weapon.
Aro turned around and stared at me.
"Why is your posture like that?" I asked, pointing at his back.
He scratched his chin. "You're distracting me, so I have to do that to focus on the screen."
"What's so distracting about me?" I asked incredulously. "I'm quiet as a mouse! Besides, it's funny how Albert Einstein is the greatest scientist of all time, yet they couldn't take a better picture of him."
I pointed at the photo with Albert Einstein with his tongue out. "I mean, what did this guy even do?"
Aro's jaw dropped at my statement. "What did he do? What did he do? He developed the theory of relativity! Do you know how important that is in modern science?"
There it was.... A reaction. I tested him further, my tone teasing.
"No, I mean, anyone can do that right?" I asked, my tone almost teasing. "I bet you can develop something like that."
"Look... This guy is a genius for a reason." Aro straightened up.
"Yeah? Why is that?"
"He was one of the people who refined quantum physics." Aro sounded slightly defensive over Einstein and it was hilarious to me. "That and the two pillars of modern physics."
"And what is that?"
"Relativity and Quantum theory."
"Sir Isaac Newton is better. The dude found gravity."
I had no idea what I was saying at this point, but Aro was responding and I decided to keep up with it.
"Sir Isaac Newton was the trigger, but there are so many scientists that had different variations. Albert Einstein had his own and believed gravity is distorted space."
"What's the difference between the two?" I asked, smiling to myself. Aro began to ramble, trying to explain to me what the difference was. "Gravity is just gravity, right? How different can the two be?"
"Newton believed objects fall because of the Earth's gravity. Einstein believed objects fall in a curved space time. Two different theories but they serve the same purpose! How can you say they aren't geniuses?"
