Kaden's POV

"Ugh I don't understand why I have to go with everyone else!"

"Because we're a family and we stick together no matter what!" Dad yelled. Honestly I don't know why he tries to pull the family card every time he thinks I'm acting out. Seriously, he was barely even a dad to me.

"So what if we have the same dna? Whoopdie-freaking do. You're only going for your own benefit because you heard the rumors of grama leaving money for everyone in her will."

A glare is shot my way and I immediately glare back. As much as I hated him, I couldn't change the fact that he was my father and I was stuck with him until graduation. I'm 19, so because of it, my curfew was extended and I was allowed to work without my parents hassling me. They couldn't fully control me like they did my siblings. They just didn't like any of us to have control so we were WAY more restricted than other kids. Like, we can't have phones or any social media and we can't stay over at any of our friends houses. At one point they almost took us out of school to opt for home schooling but we stood up to them before that madness could happen.

I still don't understand why their like this. They said when I was a baby they almost lost me and refused to let that happen again. They won't tell me exactly what happened, but they swear up and down that I almost lost my life. My mother was even in tears when the subject was brought up so I believe them. But...I'm not a little kid anymore and neither are my siblings. I'm 19, the oldest. My little brother, Jasper, is 15 and my little sister Nora is 10.

"Now just hold on a second and everyone calm down" My mother interrupted.

My father continued to glare at me but with mom now it was much less intense. This caused me to have some courage and give him a scowl of my own.

"This is a time for rejoicing and coming together, not coming apart. We've shared a lot of great memories with grama and it's only right that we see her off. She wouldn't want us here fighting and you two know that so KNOCK IT OFF!"

My mother's voice goes from calm to shrieking in a matter of moments. She's breathing unsteadily and her body is shaking. I lower my head in shame and so does my father as my siblings just watch silently.

Today was my grandmother's funeral. She passed away a few days ago and my family is shaken up. She was the pillar and backbone to us all. She loved us and you could tell her ANYTHING without fear of her telling someone else your business. I think she was the only person I liked in my family to be completely honest

"Now, let's load up in the car and give your grandma the proper goodbye that she deserves. We may not like each other all the time, but we can settle down and put petty nonsense to the side. Especially on a day like today."

Everyone nods and murmurs in agreement.

We were currently sitting in my living room, the only house with enough space for all of us to be together. Well the living room and the kitchen. The rest of the rooms were tiny but I guess that's only because of me and my father.
