Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care...

SIKE! My life was always bad. 

From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked:

'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 
'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do.
'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward.
'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household.

Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some.

'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do.
'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always.
'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes.

I walked out of my room and closed the door. I started to go downstairs where I could hear my siblings talking. I was almost to the stairs when I heard a door open and close. I turned around to see Makayla right behind me. "Hi, Little Brother." She said viciously ~~~ "You didn't do that stuff to Makayla, did you?" He quietly asked. "No, I didn't." I shook my head and paused. "She did it to herself." He was quiet for a moment. "Why would she blame you for all that stuff?" I lightly shrugged. "They'll believe her, though." I said quietly "Everyone always believes her and now that you're here it's going to get a lot worse." ~~~ Twins that were given up for adoption together. For a reason they do not know yet. The girl was seen as young, Beautiful, and innocent. They couldn't see her for who she really was. But he could and he was none other than her twin brother of course. He was the one that always suffered because of her. He loved her, she was his sister his only family. But she hated him and wanted them to hate him too. They used to think that he was the same as her until she made them think differently. Then their biological family showed up. He thought that they would love him, no matter what she did. But, maybe he was wrong. *I do not own any images or videos in this all images from Pinterest and videos from YouTube* Enjoy Started: 1/3/2021 Finished: 1/17/23 #1 in Older Sister on 03/08/21 #1 in Evil Twin on 03/08/21 #1 in Little Brother on 5/24/21 #2 in Sister on 11/29/21 #5 in Reunited on 2/28/22 #2 in Mafia Prince 11/29/21 #92 in LGBT on 9/12/21

I ran downstairs in the living room to see all my brothers circling Nefeli who was looking for me desperately, in panic. Ah, I knew the scream could be heard and would make her worry too much. When we made eye contact she literally just jumped on me, almost suffocating me from how tight her hug was. I was taken aback for the first two seconds but then I hugged her back, not knowing what was happening. "Thank God you are safe!" she whispered in my ear, making me more confused than before. I looked over to my brothers who were equally unaware of what was happening, except Aiden and Alex who were motioning for me to wait. "Of course I am okay, Nefeli, what happened?" I asked worriedly. Seeing her like that makes my heart clench. I could not stand watching her in panic. "I heard Alex and Aiden talking about something in Italian and they said something about Mafia! We are being threatened by Mafia?!" she yelled in my face, tears ready to escape her chocolate brown eyes. Everyone exchanged looks and we could not help but burst into loud laughter as Nefeli was looking at us confused. "Love, we are not threatened by Mafia" Cole said after he calmed down. "We ARE the Mafia" • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ Mentions of abuse, violence, harsh language, bad mental health, and light depression!

They balance each-other out. One the calm, the other the storm. Except when they don't. Except when she loses it and makes the place burn...literally. Who knew a burnt building would lead to three lost brothers across the country and a big ass house...after being on the run for almost a year. The twins are in for a crazy ride, but they're in it together. Always. Pinky promise. Will it be enough? TW: abuse, SA, r*pe, and mature language/scenes.
