Janelle POV...
I wake up to my dad and Anissa yelling, God I gotta start hanging out with them a little more. I get up and walk down the stairs and see them in the front.
Dad:But unlike criminals, we have rules we need to follow.
Anissa:Rules made by who?
Dad:Rules made by me!
Anissa:Guess what? I have a different set of rules. Because I'm not gonna watch my people get taken advantage of.
Dad:They are not your people, Anissa. And as long as you're under my roof, you will follow my rules.
Oh boy, why you do that pops?
Anissa:*scoffs* wow. Okay. So you're going there?
Dad:No we're not going there we are already there.
Anissa:Okay. Well if you're gonna use this house to try and tell me what to do, I'll make it easy for you. I'll be out of here by morning.
This whole family is dramatic. I wait a few minutes before walking up the stairs, Jen and Anissa already talking.
Anissa:Look, I'm not dying okay? I'll be around. I just can not have dad thinking he can control me.
I roll my eyes and walk in, they both look at me.
Me:So... You're leaving? Or just running away for a minute?
Anissa:I'm leaving... He can't control me anymore.
Jennifer:You act like he doesn't do the same thing to me.
Anissa:You're 17 your fast ass could use a bit of controlling. Both of you.
Jennifer:Oh yeah and what are you?
Anissa:Grown. And what I do is my own damn business.
Me:*scoffs* I don't need anything, I mind my business and stay out of the way of all y'all, like I'm about to do now, see ya soon sis.
I close the door and walk to my room and fall on my bed, the best thing about this house is the air vents you can ear everything.
Jennifer:I know this may sound selfish and all but how I am I gonna get through all this stuff without you? Really I can't talk to mom. I can't talk to dad. Me and Janelle can't get along for more than 10 seconds.
Anissa:Listen, you know I'm always here for you, right?
Soon I hear Anissa's voice change ohh what happened?
Anissa:Kahlil? Have you lost your damn mind? he killed dad.
Jennifer:Anissa, he killed Black Lightning.
Anissa: oh so now you're sticking up for him? When did you start texting him?
Why is she texting Khalil?
Jennifer:You all up in my face but yet Janelle is with him.
Anissa:She what? Oh no.
This is why I stay to myself. I sigh and close my eyes as I hear the steps of my sisters then my door busts open.
Me:Don't come in here like you checking somebody Anissa.
Anissa:I am, because why are you dating the guy who killed our father... Who made you go into a deep sleep?!
Me:Because I know how to handle myself around him and I know when to cut my losses, dad knows I hang with him.
