That meant their children had to have the best of the best when it came to school, making them sign Marcus and Louis up for private school. In the private school they attended, homogeneous ways were introduced to them. Everyone had to wear the same uniforms, color-wise, and only got a few options out of the essential clothing. Being a private school with reinforced beliefs, girls got to wear skirts or dresses while boys wore pants or shorts. While arriving home, Marcus was in high school and Louis in elementary-middle, but they got out simultaneously. They were walking through the white-painted door of the house they bought before both boys were born. Louis had earplugs in while Marcus dropped his bag right at the entrance, leaving it by the shoes without a care in the world. "[b]Marcus, take care of your bag; it doesn't belong by the dirty shoes; you know how I feel about things being left there,[/b]" their mother stated while peaking around the corner of the kitchen, into the hallway. She was a blonde-haired, decent-looking middle-aged woman. Their parents were nothing special in the looks category even if the Dotson men were considered easy on the eyes - this side did not get the best genes except the kids. Groaning out, he leaned over and picked up his bag with a sassy attitude. "[b]Hey, Mister, I don't appreciate that attitude right when you get home. You could at least say Hi first or ask me how my day was,[/b]" she almost used a demanding voice while giving him a stink eye as most mothers do; she was bird watching the teenager. "[color=9e0b0f]Why don't you give attention to someone who needs it,[/color]" Marcus casually gestured to his younger brother, who was standing right at the door. Taking one earplug out, he seemed somewhat surprised that the conversation was being pointed at him. Did Louis want the attention? Marcus and their mother appeared to be getting heated, and he slowly put the earplug back in before taking off his shoes. "[color=204b80]Hi, mom,[/color]" Louis said while walking by and heading straight up the stairs to his room. He was not having any part of being in this conversation with his mother. Their mother instantly gestured to Louis while he walked by, "[b]Hello to you too, Lou,[/b]" she said while looking at Marcus. She chooses to mouth these words to Marcus, "[b]Be more like him, huh?[/b]" before going back into the kitchen. "[color=9e0b0f]Are you serious!?[/color]" Marcus raised his voice out of ultimate disbelief, "[color=9e0b0f]He is like that because of your awful parenting![/color]" he shouted throughout the house. Marcus instantly darted towards the stairs, stomping the whole way up. "[b]Marcus, come down and apologize! YOU do not speak to me like that; I am your mother![/b]" She shouted up the stairs while going after him. Marcus seemed to ignore her and her words. They stared at each other, one at the top and the other at the bottom of the stairs, while death glaring each other. There was a moment of silence before his mother spoke, "[b]Linsy can't come over tomorrow,[/b]" Marcus seemed to retaliate instantly, "[color=9e0b0f]Fine, Kathy![/color]" he shouted at her while going into his room and slamming the door. His mother seemed not to know what else to say except to show anger by balling her fists before going back to the kitchen and back to cooking dinner. Louis was in his room with the door locked; he kept his headphones in - while reading a chapter of a book that school required. He barely heard any of the stomping, shouting, or overall argument between his older family members. The story that he was reading for school was classical, and it was about Robinhood, which was one of Louis's favorite characters. He enjoyed the Marvel films and such, but he desired people like Mogli or Robinhood. [hr] [right]Mentions&Interactions: Marcus, Louis, Kathy (there mother)[/right]
