I Think I’m Turning Japanese

(I’ve just finished telling my mom about a boy at school that I have a crush on, who has asked me to hang out one day after school. I’m 14, and my little sister, who has been listening the entire time, is 7.)

Mom: “I think it’s great that you might have a boyfriend, honey.”

Sister: “Yeah, well, I have a boyfriend too, mama.”

Me: *snorts* “Yeah, right.”

Sister: “I DO! I have a boyfriend! He’s from China.”

Me: “Yeah? Well, what’s his name?”

(My little sister thinks for a second, then sports a giant grin.)

Sister: “Tokyo!”
