Kate didn’t have a father – he had abandoned her mother when Kate was very young. But there was a mother and a grandfather who raised her. It so happened that her mother got cancer and passed away when she was ten years old. Kate was left with her grandfather, who was like a father to her and replaced everyone.
Her grandmother died even before her mother – so she and her grandfather were the only family she had. Kate was already a grown-up girl, working a good job, taking care of her grandfather. Lately he had become too weak and only lay in bed. Kate understood that his time would soon come.
-Kate, I have a favor to ask of you.
-What is it?!
-You know, your grandmother had a very good friend. They were like sisters. While your grandmother was alive, she was always visiting her, helping her around the house. When she died, I started going to Samantha’s. Little girl, don’t leave her alone. When I die, promise me you’ll take care of her.
-I promise.
The next day Grandpa died. Kate was left alone. She started going to Samantha’s house, helping her around the house, cooking meals. What was strange, the woman had relatives, but no one worried about her at all. Three years later, when the woman passed away, her relatives and sister showed up.
On the day of the funeral, all the relatives were looking for something in the apartment. It was clear what – money. Kate took the picture from Samantha’s apartment with her grandfather and left. The next day the sister of the deceased came to her house.
-Kate, here’s the thing.
-What happened?!
-Samantha has written a will for you. But you understand that you’re nobody to her. And we’re her relatives. Yes, I didn’t look after her, but I’ve had a lot of problems in my life. I’ll pay you back in some way.
-All right, I’ll pay you back.
Kate gave everything back to her family? No, she gave everything to the needs of the orphanage.
