My father passed away when I was 7 years old. He had health problems. I always asked my mother: “Where are dad’s relatives? Why don’t we communicate with them?”. My mother always answered that when I grow up, she will tell me everything.
Now I am 21 years old, and I decided that it was time to find out about the secret of our family. It turns out that I have three uncles and two aunts on my father’s side. But I have never seen any of them. Earlier, when my father was alive, we all stayed with my grandmother. Mom and dad got married early.
“Your father wanted your mother to have time to see her grandchildren. He was the youngest in the family. He lived with my mother and looked after her, and when he returned from the army, he married me right away. We met at a disco. He asked me to slow dance.
He spun me so hard in the dance that I lost my head from love for him. A month later he asked me to marry him. Grandma loved you more than the other grandchildren. You were the only girl among them.
Once your grandmother went to visit her eldest daughter. She got sick there and could not come for a long time. When she arrived, she was a bit irritable. We continued to live as usual, your grandmother always spoiled you and walked with you, but your aunt decided that noise is bad for your mother. And she called you the source of excitement and noise.
Then your father decided that we should move, but we did not leave your grandmother. We always went to her, helped her, and then she got sick again. To my surprise, your father’s brother and sister came and took care of her. We were not allowed to see my grandmother.
Before her death, I talked to her. She apologized to me. It turned out that she had re-signed the apartment to your aunt. I think she was forced to, that’s why she apologized. They discharged you from the house so that you had no rights. ”
That’s what my mother told me.
I wondered how my aunt was living in my grandmother’s house now. The next day, I bought a ticket to the village and went to see her. I did not dare to enter the house. So I went to a neighbor, and from her I found that my aunt had lost her son. Her husband went to another woman, and now she lives like a hermit. Everyone has turned away from her.
– Even her neighbors do not like her. No one wants to communicate with her or help her. She kicked her younger brother and his family out into the street, and now she is suffering. As people say, you can’t build happiness on someone else’s misfortune.
