Summer vacations are lame. Most people are anticipating this because they can do whatever they want without worrying school. At last they can go to the beaches, hike or even just simple road trips and picnics. Yes, normies are going crazy over vacations, but me? Oh, nevermind. I'll just stay inside our house like how I did from my previous vacation. No energy wasted.

[Normies – people who are not into anime culture.]

I stared at the whiteboard at my room, calculating how many episodes of anime I missed because of not having a freaking wi-fi at our new home. We just moved here last week, my dad was promoted last year that's why we're able to get a bigger house from a new neighborhood. Sound fun, yes – but no wi-fi, so it's a no for me.

I sighed as I removed my glasses. My eyes are probably tired from reading last night, so I must rest them for a bit. Now, I regretted staying up late, I should've sleep earlier so that my eyes won't sore like this one.

When I'm about to grab my pillow, I heard a knock from my door.

"Luwi?" It was my sister Astra, she's two years older from me and she's a social butterfly, an exact opposite of me. "Luwi, are you awake? Papasok ako."

I immediately panicked. Agad kong tinago ang hawak kong manga sa ilalim ng foam. She opened the door. I saw how her pink dress sways as she moves. It was my gift for her last Christmas, I'm glad it fitted well.

"For Pete's sake, Luigi! When will you learn to pick up the trash and clean your room? This room looks like a garbage site, gosh!" I closed my eyes after hearing her scream, her voice is irritating my ears. She sounded like our mom.

She picked some junk food wrappers lying on the floor while still scolding me. I let her tidy my room cause she's a clean freak. Besides, no one can stop her from invading my privacy right now since she's fuming mad about the mess.

"Are you a kid? You're already 17! Being a man doesn't mean you shouldn't learn how to clean. Ang kalat-kalat ng kwarto mo! May katulong ka bang taga-sunod nitong kalat mo?" She continued cleaning. She even grabbed a broom and starts sweeping the floor.

She was about to touch my pile of mangas when I shouted. "Don't touch those!"

"Then, maglinis ka!" She said and ignored what I just said. The mangas that's lying in the floor earlier are now on the shelves and organized. "God, Luigi! This is a major turn off for girls."

[Manga – a Japanese comic book and graphic novels.]

Tinakpan ko ng unan ang mukha ko. My room is not dirty, it's just not clean. Besides I don't care about girls.

When she's finished, she sat on my bed and started shaking me. "Gising na!"

"I am already awake," I answered. Hinila niya ang unan sa mukha ko at saka hinampas ito sa akin. "I said, gising na ako!"
