"Keith! Lance! Come on! I really need this job! It could be the start of my photography career!" Amulet put her hands on her hips and whined.

"I am sorry Amulet. I have to get this role for a movie. A MOVIE!" Lance sighed while tuning his guitar.

"I am also sorry. I need to write an important article of the recent terrorist attacks. If not, I am going to lose my job." I sighed and started to type my article.

"Come on! I am your cousin! Please just watch Comet for a couple of hours! I really need to go to this museum!" Amulet whined and jumped up and down.

"Where's Finn?" Lance sighed.

"He's at an audition for singing lead for a show." Amulet replied under her breath. I looked up to take a small look at Amulet from my laptop. Amulet started to cry.

"Ugh, fine. You are doing our laundry for a week then." I sighed.

"O-Oh my god! Really?" Amulet wiped her tears and her eyes lit up.

"Yeah, now go!" I chuckled.

"Thanks Keith! I love you!" Amulet took her camera and ran out the front door.

"Really?" Lance put down his guitar onto the couch and crossed his arms. God, what is wrong this time?

"What?" I sighed and looked at him.

"You are soft. Where is the Keith who is stubborn, but sensitive?" Lance gave me that look that he is annoyed. Did I fuckimg messed up?

"Soft? What do you mean as 'soft'?" I stood up and crossed my arms.

"You been getting pushed around ever since Comet was born. Before you wouldn't let Amulet's responsibility, look! You are taking care of her kid almost all the damn time!" Lance groaned.

"Well, I actually want to be a good role model for Comet. Also, give Amulet and Finn a break! They are YOUNG PARENTS who ARE TRYING THEIR BEST!" I rolled my eyes.

"Could you like.." Lance started to stutter.

"Like what." I rolled my eyes.

"Like a damn adult. You been so growup! We are 21 years old! We are young! We are free! You are growing up too fast! I want you to be free with me, but you want me to be dragged into a cage." Lance yelled.

"I-I am not! I am not growing up so fast!" I yelled back.

"You are taking responsibility for Amulet! Amulet is a young adult! She needs to learn!" Lance snapped.

"She is my baby cousin!" I yelled.

"Your baby cousin had a baby!" Lance roared.

"Lance, I know you are so stressed about this important role for your career, but family comes first." I sighed.

"Could a family afford all of this stuff? Clothes? Food? A home?" Lance rolled his eyes.

"Just go back to our apartment and practice. I do not want to take care of this now. I have an article and a kid to tak---"

"Who isn't yours! Just all I want for you is to be the Keith I met and fell in love with. I am going to leave now." Lance sighed and walked over to me. He leaned into me for a kiss, but I pushed him away.

"Okay then.." Lance nodded, took his guitar, and left.

"Why did I married an idiot like him?" I mumbled to myself. I opened my laptop screen and started to type away about the activity about the recent terrorist attacks.
