Jack was the only one who knows about the magic lamp and a genie. Gemini gave him a wish a day. but since the Gemini was really lazy, Jacks wishes never came true.
One night, he heard a noise from the lamp. so Jack rubbed the lamp. he wanted to ask what was going on with Gemini. then the grumpy Gemini showed up and told him he is renovating. Jack asked him to keep the noise down, because his mother is in downstairs. he said he does not care. 'only the owner of the lamp can see me.' he said.
in the morning, his mother asked him about the noise. but she found full of bricks and the room covered of dust. he just said he is interested in building stuff lately. right after his mother left his room, he rubbed the lamp and told Gemini not to mess his room. but he did not care at all. Jack wanted to Gemini to finish renovating. so he decided to wish for Gemini. after he wished for him, Gemini was so happy. it was his first time to see gemini so happy. then Gemini said 'so what do you want in return...?' Jack said 'stop being grumpy!' then Gemini said 'I am never grumpy' grumpily and left.
