I arrived home from work to find Luca sitting at her computer. She spun around on a big black chair she’d taken from my desk and replaced with her uncomfortable plastic chair. Of course, she thought it was funny when I sat down and began laughing just in case my butt hadn’t noticed.

Next to her LCD screen was a Nintendo DS and a bag full of games. Stacks of library books were piled high on the adjacent desk. Puzzles, board games, and crafts were a closet away.

"Do you want to play a computer game?" I ask.

"Nope"

"What about a puzzle?"

"Nope"

"Would you want to watch a DVD?"

"Already did that today"

"Hmmm…is there anything you’d like to do?

"There’s nothing to do"

Welcome to day 3 of summer break.
