I had a car that I inherited after my father died. It was pretty old and so it had to be repaired all the time. To be honest, it cost a pretty penny to maintain, and if you add tax, insurance, and changing tires from summer to winter and vice versa, it was worth its weight in gold.
I owned the car legally, as my father had registered it in my name while I was still alive. However, I believed that it also belonged to my mother.
To reduce these unnecessary expenses, I decided to sell my father’s car and buy our domestic six and a washing machine.
However, my mother asked me to lend her the money for a few months for an acquaintance of hers. I was not happy about this prospect, but my mother hinted that they bought my father’s car together, and therefore, if everything is divided the Soviet way, it is hers, and therefore the money I received for it.
My soul is gnawing with suspicion that my mother was having some amorous dealings with this man at the time, and then they ended and my money sailed away.
The other day I decided to call her and ask when I would be paid. When I first opened my mouth my mother started yelling and freaking out so much that even the sky was hot. I so think that my beloved ditched my mother and is not in contact with her, and she did not take receipts from him and the money, of course, gave without the presence of witnesses.
She then told me that I was obsessed with my money, and then said that she was very busy right now, as she was going to a sanatorium. I ended up with no car and no money. One of the lawyers I know told me that even through the courts we would not be able to get our finances back.
I’m really mad at my mother now, so I want everyone to know the truth: when my daughter and I were going to the sea, she said she pawned her and her father’s wedding rings to add to our trip, but in fact she did not pawn any rings, because not so long ago I saw them at her house, they were lying in an old crystal vase. I asked her why she was lying, but she was so angry then, too, that I thought she was about to attack me. Maybe she wanted to show us that we were very important to her and that she would do anything for us. Or maybe my mother was very ashamed of the fact that she took money from me and gave it to some rascal.
To be honest, I’m very offended that my mother did that to me!
