"Ara, please set up the dining table!!!" my mum shouted from the bottom of the stairs.

"Ok mum!!! I'll do it in a minute! Just wait!" I replied. Another boring day of another boring summer. I used to hang out with my friends at the begining of the summer then they had to leave for summer camp.

So here I am watching The Maze Runner with the AC on full blast because the weather is so hot outside. I went downstairs to do what my mum wants me to do.

My mum was at the stove, cooking something that looks like mashed potatoes.

"Honey, you're always in your room. Don't you wanna go to the mall tomorrow?" she told me.

"No thanks mum." I said, opened the fridge, took out a Sprite and drank it.

"I can give you money for shopping." my mum offered with a concerned look.

"Mum, you know me. First of all, I do shopping when I need to. Second, it's too hot outside and I have an AC inside my room. Third, I'm too lazy to go to the mall." I said.

Then I got the things I need for the table and started setting it up. After I was done, my dad arrived from work. In his left hand was his lab coat and the other was carrying our dog, Cookie.

"Hello ladies." my dad said. Then he gave my mom a quick kiss on the lips. Gross. At least get a room.

"And you young lady. I saw Cookie 3 houses away. Why was she there? Also why didn't anyone get her? Good thing she's still wearing her collar." he said putting Cookie down.

"Ara dear, please call your brother. I'm almost done cooking our food. He's been in his room for 2 days." my mom said wih a worried look.

"Fine mum." I said. I went upstairs then when I was in front of my brother's room I knocked first because I have manners unlike my brother.

"Hey Aaron! Dinner is prepared! Mum wants you out of your room." I shouted. I waited for a reply but I didn't receive any.
His room was quite. Too quite. I knocked once again. No one replied. So I barged into his room and got shocked by what I saw.

If you saw a dump site that's full of trash already, well that's how my brother's room looks like. I scanned the room if Aaron was there but I didn't see a human body anywhere.

I went to the top of the stairs and shouted, "Mum are you sure Aaron is in his room?".

"Of course! His car is parked inside the garage!" my mum said. I went back inside my brother's room then I tried lifting stuff around and moving some boxes until I saw a hand sticking out between an empty box of pizza and half- empty bag of chips.I started removing the stuff then pulled my brother out of the trash.

"What are you doing buried in a pile of rubbish for almost 2 days?!" I shouted at him.

"I don't remember. I think I still have a hangover." he groaned.

"Well, you should drink some Advil first. It's in the medicine cabinet. Then go down, it's dinnertime already." I demanded, leaving my brother's room.

I went back and ate my dinner silently. Finally, Aaron went down and greeted my mom and dad then ate his dinner. We cleared the table then washed the dishes.

"Does anyone wanna watch Taken 3?" my dad asked. "I wanna watch! But I get the couch." Aaron shouted.

"Why become hyper suddenly?" I asked with my eyebrow raised.

"I just love action just like how you like One Direction." he pointed out, his arms folded.

"Hmm....you have a point." I said, realizing.

"Ara, how about you?" my dad asked.

"I think I'll just go upstairs already. Good night." I said, heading upstairs. I went up then took a bath and got ready to sleep. My eyes started to droop then I fell into a deep sleep.
