A high-and-all-mighty mother, an irritable lazy father, a vulgar discontent sister, and an illiterate younger brother, these terms labeled by Jonathan had stuck with him for years, sometimes interchanging from one family member to another.
A 15-year-old teenager named Jonathan Austin was an ordinary student going through high school trying to tolerate his family's absurdity and people's idiocy in a world full of cynicism and political ideologies. He was known for his deadpan expression and sarcastic attitude. On the week of their city's festival where classes were halted, he already planned in advance to go with two of his friends to a birthday party, however, it was compromised due to his family's favors clashing in between. With that, he had to get his schedule right on track as he committed to complete all their favors for a week during the festival before the day of his friend's birthday party.

There's Max Bordel, reuniting with his long lost friend group, finding a job at a local diner and making harmless pranks. One Biology assignement and one meal of nachos and cheese fries can easily bring those two together. **** author - "Please be aware of strong language and short chapters.
