I got to be the captain of my college cheer team in my freshman year of college which was a pretty big deal for me. It opened a lot of opportunities for me from gaining friends, popularity, and even travels. I had always imagined a perfect life and that was exactly what I had gotten.

I was fairly attractive according to the standards of society. I was very popular in college and everyone was nice to me so I’d like to think that they liked me. And let’s not even get started with the boys. It was like most of the guys in that college were at my tail waiting, hoping I would break up with my boyfriend.

Hi. My name is Jack, and my family is pretty crazy. And not in the usual, "oh they're so annoying" way. No, my family is crazy, because they have been hiding their secret criminal life from me for years.

Growing up, life was pretty normal. I went to school, I hung out with my friends, I played video games. My parents were pretty normal people. They went to work, they had 9 to 5 jobs, and they were pretty much just normal parents. My grandparents were normal. My aunties and uncles were normal. Everything was pretty much normal.

Little did I know that was all just an illusion.

So, I am a stay at home mom. I have a gorgeous cheeky little boy called Bobby. He is 3 years old and an absolute angel. When I say that I am a “stay at home” mom, I literally mean, stay at home. You see, we can’t leave the house. “Why?” you ask, because I have to keep my son hidden. He is 3 years old and on the FBI’s most wanted list!

Let me start at the beginning. I had always led a busy social life. I was out all the time with my friends. I was on the girls basketball team, the swim squad. I was never at home. I didn’t have time for boys, that was, until I met Brad.

My family is rich. And when I say rich, I mean mega rich. We own dozens of houses and properties all across the globe. My parents are the heads of a huge trading company. My grandfather was a car manufacturer. I live in a mansion, overlooking an ocean view, and we have seven bedrooms and an indoor cinema. I am rich. My family is rich. But it wasn't always that way. Years ago, we were one of the poorest families in the neighbourhood. And it was all because our money was cursed.

I slammed the door of my dad’s car shut and immediately put earbuds in. I didn’t want to hear a word from my parents for the next few hours until we arrived at least. I couldn’t believe they were forcing me to move from one of the most modern cities to a dusty, crusty old town. I watched the scenery while listening to my calming music, honestly pretending to be living in a music video. We’ve all done that before, right?

Soon enough we entered the town. The “Welcome” sound had the population on it. It was 10 thousand! My friends had more followers on social media than this town had people!

I was every parent’s dream child. As a baby I only cried if I was hungry or tired. Sometimes my parents would open my bedroom door to find me in my crib laughing at nothing. They always thought it was weird but they appreciated it. They never lost sleep or fought about who had to wake up to feed me.

My mom and dad believed that as I got older I started to have imaginary friends. At the table I’d always ask these friends if they wanted something to eat and although I was an only child, I was never lonely. I was ALWAYS having a conversation with someone they couldn’t see.

I remember my first day of kindergarten like it was yesterday. You might think that I’m completely ridiculous for saying this since I’m already seventeen years old.

“Marcus, pay attention to what I’m saying. Naughty children get punished here if they don’t listen!” my mean teacher Miss Colton said. I think she hated her job.

But I couldn’t focus. I was too busy looking at Maya. She was the most beautiful person I had ever seen in my life. She had bright, rosy cheeks, almond brown eyes and curly black hair that bounced all over the place whenever she moved around.

Hi, I'm Sally. And, I'm not your typical girl. I have three sisters - Sophia, Sharron, and Sandy. Yes, my parents thought it would be cute to have all our names start with the letter 's'. Frankly, I find it annoying. We're quadruplets, meaning we were all born at the same time. We're very close. Oh yes, and did I mention we're conjoined quadruplets?

My parents weren't expecting quadruplets. When my mom was pregnant, she never did any ultrasounds - she said she preferred the gender of the baby to be a surprise when she gave birth. Little did she know she would have four babies! And she never would have expected to have conjoined quadruplets!

My family was very rich. And when I say rich, I mean rich. They owned dozens of properties across the country, and they had more luxurious cars than I had fingers. We lived in a huge mansion, with seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, a cinema, two swimming pools, an enormous garden, and a tennis court to top it all of. We were mega rich. But that wealth didn't come without great risk. You see, my family were the biggest criminals in the country.

“Amber, make sure your little brothers and sisters wash up after breakfast and get ready for school!” my mom screamed over the noise of my irritating siblings. I was the eldest child. My brothers and sisters were all between the ages of three and ten. So of course, I was a permanently annoyed sixteen-year-old. I honestly believed that my family was the lamest in the entire world.

Because of my age, I was like the third parent in the household. The parents were always working really hard to ensure that we were all comfortable so I had to do almost everything for these annoying brats.
