I stomp to the bathroom and grab some gloves on my way. I start scrubbing when I hear Sam crying and yelling. I run into the room. "Stop!!" I scream. Their slapping her and throwing her around. I grab her and hug her. She cries in my shoulder. "Start getting to work!!" I yell at them. I'm the oldest, but there was a new kid who thought he was so tough he didn't know how old was. He walked up to me and said, "you're not the boss of us. I'm 9, older than you." I snapped back, "ya know, 14 is bigger than 9." He looks down and walks away. I smirk.

And they died 3 years ago.
