“Oh my god, it’s freezing in here!” I complained, curling inside my warm blanket on the couch. November was ending soon and the weather was lowering rapidly.

“I know I know, let me just turn on the heat.” My dad said who was shivering as well. I felt a comforting gust of warm air and wiggled in my blanket in happiness.

“You know the Wus’ plumbing suddenly stopped working this morning? Poor them.” Mom said worriedly.

“Oh wow, did they call the plumber?” Dad responded.

“No, Mr. Wu’s really determined on fixing it himself. Either that or he’s just going to wait until it fixes on its own.” Mom said.

“So what are they going to do if they need to shower or something?”

“Helllooooo neighbors!” Mr. Wu’s voice boomed when he and the rest of his family burst through our door.

“Oh hello! How are you guys?” Mom said, welcoming our guests. I noticed that each of them had a luggage.

“Hi, I know I've told you about our water situation, and I was wondering if it’d be okay if we could stay here until we figure out a way to get it back.” Mrs. Wu asked kindly.

“Of course!” Mrs. Wu piped.

“But there won’t be any room for Kris to sleep with you guys... Jihae! You can share your room with Kris, can’t you?” Mom suggested. I nearly started choking on my spit.

“Uhhh I really don’t think that would be the best choice. Right daddy?” I elbowed my dad.

“It’s okay. They’ve slept together before!” My dad shrugged.

“Yeah when we were kids!” I whined.

“Well I trust you two. It’ll be fine.” Dad said.

“But...But... Can’t Kris just sleep on the couch?” I plead.

“Aw, Jihae doesn’t want to bond.” Kris pouted.

Well damn right I don’t want to bond! In what world would I want to share a room with
