Should I pay my narcissist brother back?

I stole from him because my life is not going well, and I am currently struggling so hard to pay my medical/pet bills. I regret it, and it's my first time ever stealing from someone. He stole big money from my parents in the past, borrowed money from random people but never paid anyone back, and he got away with it coz "he's family, and their son". Now he's angry that it happened to him and claims I stole an amount bigger than what I actually stole, which I have proof that he's wrong. For anyone who don't know, everyone in my family are narcissists, and I live with them, and I'm currently being condemned, and forced to pay that amount. I'm the family scapegoat, and it's so unfair that were both treated so differently. Should I or shouldn't?

If you stole it you should return it unless HE owes YOU
Didn't matter what his situation is with others

@pdockal He did it before, my parents let it go...why can't they do the same for me?

@pdockal He stole money from my parents, never paid them back, and got away with it because according to my mom, "he's their son, and he's family"

Not your business
That's between him & them
Your business is between you & him

@pdockal So I guess I'm really not part of the family then

@bittersweethermit

That's up to you & had nothing to do with the issues you've presented

@pdockal How is it up to me? Why was I even born in this family to begin with?

That's life
Either stay or go
Your choice (that's how is up to you)
