The young boy looked at his older brothers as they ran around and joked. While they played he was forced to watch Zenno, in the other room they could hear the yelling voices of his mothers and Erin. he tried to keep his younger brother calm as he ate but it was hard.
"Why is everyone yelling?" He asked, trying to get out of his seat.
"They're not yelling they're just talking about a serious topic" He said lightly putting his hands on the others shoulders to keep him in place.
"Yelling and discussing a serious topic are the same thing." he pointed out which for some reason always seemed to be true for their family.
"Yeah but a serious topic tends to have less overall physical fighting so that's a plus." He shrugged as Erin yelled something they couldn't hear.
"...that's true... why can't everyone just be happy for once?" he sighed sadly taking a bite of his food.
A loud scoff was heard and Erin got up and walked through the room.
"I am not having this conversation with you two, especially not not you Gob." He scoffed and looked down at the kids. Zenno looked up at him concerned whimpering slightly
"Are you leaving?" He asked, trying to reach his uncle.
"Yeah I have to go. I promise that next time I come over we can hand out more." He smiled, picking him up.
Behtoven looked over to see his mothers watching Erin closely. His older brothers walked in and hugged Erin who seemed slightly uncomfortable with the action.
"See you guys soon." Erin put Zenno down before walking out. A loud sigh was heard from their parents.
"You guys do whatever we need to talk."
Beevo sighed as they walked into their room.
"...why is uncle Erin so mad?" Zenno asked looking up.
"Because he has to watch over everything that Grandpa watches over and Grandpa wants things done right." Jovi said as they walked over to the play room.
"Grandpa is putting a lot of stress on Uncle Erin and Uncle Erin is having trouble working through it."
"It's stupid."
"Yeah we all think so." He sighed, sitting down and turning on their games.
"I wish everyone could just be happy."
"I think if we tried to make that happen everyone would just end up sadder than they already are." Behtoven sighed.
"Why's that?"
"Well what Erin and mom want is to get away from their duties and Grandpa but Grandpa wants to have everyone in the same area and together. So there is no way for everyone to be happy, someone has to be sad." He tried to reason.
"And Erin has taken it upon themselves to be the one that's sad which makes mom sad because she wants Erin to be happy and it starts getting complicated and leads to all the fights they have." Jovi said.
"So all the fights are so someone can be happy?" Zenno asked, sadly the rest nodded.
