It should have been a beautiful day full of joy.

A few days into summer vacation actually. A hot summer day full of dread. My parents were out in a business meeting with some important people. A big name... I like Ootorni...Otorgi? Something like that. Anyway I was just in my room. I have the smallest bedroom cause... well it was still pretty big and Chiyo really wanted the room with the view of the mountains. We were allowed to decorate, or even renovate our rooms as we please which was surprising. There's a nice part of having rich parents.

The walls of my room were an off-white, one painted with a tree on a hill by the sea while the sun was setting, white puffy clouds swirling to the sunset. My bed is up against the  wall with the mural with a drawer next to it. I have a closet in the corner to the right the door, a desk a few feet away, a corner full of books on 2 shelves with a chair and several pillows on the floor. 

(Looks sort of like this but with a mural on the wall, carpets on the floor, and a reading corner next to the drawer by the lamp

Anyway I was laying on my bed reading when-

BANG!

The door slammed open and came in Chiyo. She was holding a ball and had a confident look on her face that annoyed me. 

"Hey! Koraru! Play with me!".

"No."

That's when she through the ball at me. I quickly ducted down before it hit me.  It continued to bounce around before knocking down a picture hanging on the wall, the frame breaking once colliding into the ground. Sadness and rage overtook me.

"Chiyo. Are you SERIOUS! You just knocked down- no. Broke that picture! That was from our vacation to Kyoto! You can't come into here and break my stuff!"

Chiyo slowly inched closer to the door before rushing out the room. I quickly jumped out of bed and started chasing her through the long corridor and into the living room.

That's when we bumped into Himari. Yeah... she was not happy about that.

"What are you rats doing?"

......

Chiyo quickly pointed at me saying-

"It was Koraru! He kept chasing me for no reason!"

"What!? You literally came into my room, threw a ball at me, AND broke my stuff!"

Himari looks pretty disappointed. She got up and waved her finger at us. I started to cool down a little but when I looked at Chiyo I was disappointed. She was rolling her eyes at me.

"You two are both idiots. I'm going to do something actually meaningful. So bye losers!"

And with a dramatic turn she left.

Sibling Shenanigans: Karaoke Night, part 1

(This takes place during summer before Koraru started 8th grade.)

Well, somethings off. Usually Himari stays in her room. Video calling friends, playing games, doing homework, she only gets out to use the bathroom or grab a snack once in a while. No, she's not starving in her room. She usually has either me or Chiyo bring her food. Mostly me. You also may be asking, "Hey! Aren't you rich? Why don't you have butlers and maids to head your every call? Why doesn't Himari have a bathroom in her room? Simple, we used to but stuff happened and now we don't. Also, we don't live in a mansion. Just a 2 story house. Still, it's too big for my liking. Now my parents want me to go to some fancy middle school for my 8th grade. I already went a year to PB, why transfer now?

'This is so annoying.'

I was just hanging out in my room, just reading. It was a new book I picked up. It was called Center of Gravity. It's pretty good. Oh, back on topic. How I knew she was out there? Her footsteps. People walk in different ways. Some people may find it weird but I learned how to do this since I stayed up a lot watching UpiTube so I based how fast I hid and even how I hid that I was staying up based on how far they were and who they were. Downside. I always feel terrible.

Anyway she was moving a rod a lot. Moving from her room back to the living room taking multiple trips. Something's going on and I'm gonna find out.

I sneaked through the empty hallways. Well more like ran. I didn't like staying in the hallways for any longer than I had to. I crouched down and say something terrifying. The screen was being set up, couches in place, bottles of water on the table in front of the couches. The screen was turned off but unmistakable. 



It was karaoke night.
