A fellow maniac.

This book was inspired by the movie The Suite Life Movie. A few lines from the film have been referenced within these pages, including:
“We may be twins, but we are not brothers.”
“Yeah, I’m a twin of a guy who cares why a carrot is more orange than an orange.”
“Sure, we get a long list of things we can’t stand about each other.”
“Well, if by love you mean a dark, bottomless pit of constant burning of a thousand white-hot suns, then yes.”
“Didn’t you get my emails about me constructing my emotional borders, forbidding you entering the country that is my soul?”
“All your emails go directly to trash.
I think that’s all.”

(New diary extract)
Saturday
Dear Diary,
“Aaahaaaaaa😱” that’s my nemesis Brody screaming this morning. I was in my lab mixing some chemicals when I heard my name, “Cody!” I didn’t answer. I continued with my next task, just chuckling. To be honest, I don’t have a lab. I do my science work in my bathroom. Yeah, you heard me right, my bathroom is my lab.
I share the same room with Brody. I hate the fact that he looks like me, and why do we have to come into this world at the same time? 🥵
Back to my lab talk, our house is very small. The biggest place in the house is our… no, I mean my bathroom. I divided it into two and used one part for my lab.
Diary, do you know that I have been awake since 4:30 AM and that lazy, dull head just woke up at 8:45? I guess he was about to take his towel from our wardrobe, not my wardrobe. There is a mirror at the wardrobe door. Maybe he saw something exciting, that’s why he’s screaming.
My lab door opened, and it was Brody.
“You can’t just bump into my lab/bathroom. What if I’m naked?” I asked, narrowing my eyebrows at him.
“You must be crazy… no, I mean, you are crazy. Cody, you are a maniac. What did you do to my hair? How can a human being be so evil? Just one more on the list of things I will never forgive you for!” Brody shouted, but I acted like I didn’t care.
Actually, I don’t care. I took my lab coat off and left the bathroom. I bumped into Mom.
“Cody, what have you done this time?” Mom asked.
“Erm… nothing, I just did a gender experiment on my specimen,” I said. Brody came out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
“Mom, thank God you are here. Look at what your son did to me,” Brody almost cried.
“What?!... Cody, you are grounded. Why are you so, so s… oh my God, you shaved your brother’s hair and glued it on his beard and crotch?...?” Mom asked.
“Mom, he also glued it to my armpits and butt,” Brody added.
“What?!” Dad exclaimed.
“Hmmm… he hasn’t grown any hair in his body parts, so I just did him a favour,” I said confidently.
“What?!” They all exclaimed.
You already know what happened. I was grounded until my grandchildren graduated 🎓 😢 😔 I’m just exaggerating. I was only grounded for two weeks. I will get my phone back only if I learn from my mistakes. I’m quite good at pretending. I had written an apology speech for the next two weeks, just in case I got grounded or suspended.
When I got to school the next day, I was suspended for two weeks, and I couldn’t hide it from my parents because first of all, Brody knew, and secondly, my principal called to inform my parents.
Guess what I did🤓? Well, you’ll never believe it, but that’s a story for another day. Because what happened next… changed everything.
Guess what I did🤓?
