She did nothing however dig by every little thing he owned and ask me for stuff. She really made a much bigger mess by ransacking closets, drawers, and cabinets. I should have stated ‘no’ to the unsuitable merchandise as a result of she all of a sudden screamed, ‘It isn’t truthful that you just’re getting stuff simply because your dad died!’ I immediately noticed my respect for her shatter and fall to the bottom like shards of glass.”

I couldn’t consider how jealous, materialistic, and infantile she was. It has been eight years, and I have not spoken a phrase to her since.
