Alex's: POV
After spending entire week in new York helping my mother getting my father's things in order. We cleaned out his closet and took all his clothes down to the goodwill
Somebody would appreciate all those business suits, and other articles of clothing as well his shoes, mom has decided not to sell the family house. But she agreed to fly back home with me for a few weeks, l think the change will do her some good. Especially after the reading of the will was held down at my father's attorney's office. Dad was always responsible when it came to his finances, he left us each a nice amount of money. Mother received 42 Grand, my sister sister in law and my two nieces both got five million a piece, he had their savings bonds in a high interest savings account. Francesca couldn't have access to hers until she was twenty one years ago, Stef and her family left yesterday because Francesca needed to go back to school, father made sure all the house hole expenses were paid in full. Which was a blessing so mother wouldn't feel overwhelmed, he even paid off the house in full. He still had plenty of funds left over from his life insurance policy. I asked my mother who was the mysterious woman at the gravesite she told me it my father's ex mistress, l was glad Stephanie wasn't here because she would have went off the handle. I couldn't believe Dad an affair while he was still married to mother
According to mom their little fling didnt't last long, how could my mother be so forgiving towards fathers infidelity. There was nothing left to say after she explained the situation, my lips are sealed mom and I always had close relationship than I had with dad. I'm still trying to wrap my head around why my oldest niece didn't come home for the memorial service, it's not like Callie to miss out. When l spoke to Lena she said Callie was in the middle midterms, she had to go to a out state college
I really need to pay Callie a visit to see what's up with her
Stef was kinda of disappointed but didn't show it. I did all the laundry in the guest rooms, mother wanted a brand new bedroom set. When the delivery guys came they took the old one out before bringing in the new one, come to think of it Callie bailed out thanksgiving last year. Something is definitely wrong with this whole picture
Lena was just concerned as mom and I were, Stef choose not to comment. This is Callie's second year in college
I get her wanted to establish her independence but to shut us all out is so wrong on so many levels in my book, mom told me to leave it alone. Stef and Lena are her parents
I have no say so cause l'm just the concerned aunt who cares, l head back down to the basement to take the linen out of the dryer. A brown small box in the corner caught my eye, l sat the basket down to go have a look inside
I pulled out when it appears to be a little girls torn dress covered. Why would dad have a child's piece of clothing hidden all the way, I hope this isn't the reason why Callie's never come to visit what did dad do to Callie. I don't want to jump to conclusions, l put the box back we're l found it
I can't mention anything to my mother or sister and sister in law about this little discover l came across. I take clean sheets towels and wash cloths place them in the laundry basket and head back upstairs, mom was coming downstairs with her luggage. I took a seat on the couch and folded the towels nice and neat, sweetheart what time do we need to leave for the airport Elizabeth asks her daughter. Mmm we need head to the airport at 4:00 pm
The shuttle service is picking us up around 2:00 pm we still have plenty of time, it's only 10:30 in the morning Alex States. Elizabeth walks off towards the kitchen
Alex figures she would keep this little piece of info to herself until she has all the facts together. This secret could destroy her families bond, mother comes back carrying too hot cups of coffee. She sits both mugs down on the coasters, alex lifted up her cup up to her lips and blows before taking a sip of her drink. Elizabeth knew something wrong with her youngest daughter cause ever since she came back up from the basement she's been a little off,
