Every year I prank my cousin on the first Thursday of summer. What I do is I ask my gram for some ice tea. She gives me four ice cubes then, what I do is I say, “Thank you.”
I just walk upstairs to my room and play with my guinea pigs so she doesn’t suspect anything. Then I clean my gerbil’s cage. I then do the prank that I do year after year after year. I scoop up the ice cubes, wait until he’s asleep, which isn’t very long because he has the softest mattress in the world. So when he is asleep, I put the ice cubes in his bed sheet and go on my top bunk and I fall asleep and wait until morning. I laugh my head off because I thought he was going to say, “ It’s so cold.”
In the morning when he wakes up. I wake up hoping to see his reaction. I jumped down to see he’s not even in bed. I walk in my mom’s room where we have Dish and he’s sitting in the giant bean bag and said, “Hey Eben.” I was confused because I thought the plan was foolproof!
