Father sat down next to Joshua, his hand patting the boy's shoulder with his head down, "You know that there are no secrets in our family. All I need to check is our youngest one, if he's not around, I know something is wrong. And look, the three of you are like fools under a crazy person like, Rose? Josh, come on, can't you give a good advice to your brother?"
Joshua lowered his head even more, I could see his sweat running down his face. The air in the room felt so heavy. Like I said before, even though we are old now, we are still tied to our parents from our lives.
Both are too scary for us to break their rules.
"You're the one who can use your brain at a time like this, unlike your two older brothers who are quick to act violence instead." Father turned to me and Cross. I'm sure Father gave off a pheromone because even Cross didn't move.
We were the epitome of coward kiddo, we acting like assholes out there but in front of our parents we like a dog begging to be petted.
