Michael

I was sitting comfortably in my room drawing a pictures of the outside. Along with many things, drawing was a passion of mine. I was interrupted by a knock on my door.

"Come in!" I answered while closing my art notebook. The door opened and in came my eldest brother, Jackie.

"Hey Michael!" He said while smiling at me. "What are you up to?"

"I was just drawing." I answered. "What's up?"

"Come outside with us." He said, referring to my other bothers. "We have something to show you."

I furrowed my brows. "What is it?"

"Come outside and you'll see." I sat hesitantly before ultimately deciding to go with him. It probably wasn't as bad as I thought it was.

He grabbed my hand and led outside to the backyard where all my brothers were there, circled around something.

"Michael there you are!" Marlon yelled when he saw me. "Look at what Jermaine found." He threw me a bag full of green stuff. I furrowed my brows not knowing what it was.

"I don't know what this is."

They all snickered before continuing to talk to me. "Your so innocent, Michael. It's weed."

My eyes widened and my jaw dropped. "Where did you find this?" I whisper-yelled, making sure Joseph or mother didn't hear me.

"None of your business." Tito said nonchalantly while waving me off.

"Do you know Joseph will tear you up if he catches you guys with this?"

"He won't if he doesn't find out." Marlon squinted at me. "So you better not snitch."

I sucked my teeth before starting to walk away. "I won't snitch but best believe I'm leaving."

"Lame!" They yelled at me but I ignored them. I wasn't bout to get in trouble because of their stupidity.

While I was walking back to my room I walked past my parents room and heard some people talking. For some reason, I felt as though something was off so I walked to the door and put my ear against it so I could here what was going on.

"Baby why don't you bring your fine ass over here?" I heard Joseph's low, gravely voice say.

"Joseph.." A high pitched voice said that definently wasn't my mother said. "What if the kids hear us?"

"They outside, they won't hear a thing." He said and I scoffed loudly before covering my mouth so they wouldn't hear me.

"Did you hear that?" The woman said.

"Hear what?" He asked.

"Nevermind." She said and I heard her walking towards his bed. I left before I heard things I didn't want to.

"What's wrong?" Zuri asked me when I went to her house to hang out.

"My dad is cheating on my mom." I said shortly and she gasped.

"Oh my God! How did you find out?" She exclaimed but before I could explain, the front door opened and Zuri's mom walked in.

"Zuri where the hell you at?" Her mom said and my eyes widened at the familiar voice.

That was the same voice I heard in my dad's room!

I felt like the world had stopped spinning and I couldn't breath for a moment until I felt someone forcefully slap me on the back.

"Michael, are you okay?" Zuri asked me, genuinely concerned.

"My dad and your mom are having an affair!"
