April was about to head out to the store to buy groceries. Before she walked out the door, she realized that Garrett was just lounging on the couch, while watching cartoons on TV.
“I don’t want you to be spending all day in front of the tube! Do you hear me?” April said in a stern tone of voice.
“Yeah, right…” Garrett mumbled back. April just rolled her eyes. When is her little brother going to learn?
“What are you going to do during the rest of the day?” she asked the boy.
“Hang around the house…”
“Why don’t you go outside?”
“Too hot…”
“Why don’t you go to the park and play basketball with the other kids?”
“Too short…”
April just let a deep sigh.
“Well, then go and ride your bike or go skating or something…”
“Too tired…”
April grabbed the remote on the table and turned off the TV.
“Hey!” Garrett protested. “Turn it back on!”
April started to walk off with the remote, but Garrett leaped from the chair and began to chase her and tried to swipe the remote out of her hand.
“Give me the remote!”
“No! Settle down, Garrett!”
“Give me the remote!”
“Garrett! You’re NOT watching TV all day long, do you hear me?”
“I just want to hang out here at home. There is nothing else to do around here, anyway!” Garrett shouted at her. "I'm bored!!"
“Oh yeah?” April said, while showing an evil grin on her face.
“You want to hang out? I’ll help you!”
Suddenly, Garrett froze in his tracks. He started to feel a weird tingling feeling in his body….
“Haahahahaha!” April smirked…
