No baits. Yeah, it's always your seat. Is that because you're the favorite child or is that because you're the bully child? What I mean?

Speaker 5

Because it's like, are you scared of me? My brother and I are so far apart in age, Like he's like nine years older than me. So I just felt like he just got everything and I was just like kind of like a pet in the family.
