Calvin was always irritated by his parents and they always tended to be irritated by him as well. He didn't like his mom's disgusting meals, he didn't like his dad's methods of "building character", and he didn't like their overbearing rules. And yet, he didn't realize, or did, but thought nothing of it, that his parents were driven crazy by his own behavior.

On school days, he had to be waken up by his mom or even dragged out of bed by her. Something about the house seemed... odd. He got off the bed and walked towards his parents' room. When he opened the door, he was shocked to find that...
