Chapter 168: His way or no way

LOUIS’ POV

***********

The large flames of the fireplace did most of the lighting in the my family and I were

"Well done Robert!" my mother congratulated my brother as she hugged him. "Six A’s and two B’s for this semesters report card is incredible!"

"I told you hiring the best tutor would help him," my father said as he sat reading a news paper

"I also got an A on my report card," I tried to get my parents’ attention. In actual fact I had a better report card than Robert. I actually had all A’s on my semester report card but all their focus was on Robert.

"Oh, good work," my mother said barely looking at me.

"What do think we should celebrate for Robert, shouldn’t we?" my mother said to him. " special celebration for the special heir."

"Yes, we should I’m so proud of you," my father said.

Robert’s face was beaming as he proudly took in the praise.

I watched the three with a sad and confused expression. From the corner of my eye I saw something waving in my direction. My gaze shifted to where the movement came from and saw my older sister who was seated quietly on a couch in the corner of the room. She held out her hand indicating she wanted me to go to her.

As my parents and brother had their ’moment’ I went to my sister who made space on her seat and I sat next to her.

"Ignored again?" she asked me.

I nodded my head and felt like crying.

"Don’t worry. I know exactly how you feel," she told as she put her arm around me and hugged me. "Unfortunately, you’ll get used to it."

She then took my report and then held out her own, putting them side by side.

"Look at that we both got all A’s," she said to me. "Well done, Louis."

"Thanks Angela," I thanked her. "Well done to you too."

"Thank you," she said as she ruffled my hair with her hand.

That was my life for as long as I can remember. At some point I just got used to it as my sister had told me, To question or go against Robert was completely useless unless you wanted to feel stupid. My sister fortunately made things a lot bearable since she completely understood how I felt.

"Mum, can we got the amusement park?" I would ask my mother.

"Can we go to the cinema?" Robert would ask my mother directly after.

"Let’s go to the cinema," my mother would then say.

"Dad, it wasn’t me who took your cuffs for your suit, I promise," I said to my father.

"Robert says he saw you," he told me.
