Five daughters who were “too busy” to meet their dying father and say goodbye compete to treat their widowed mother like a queen after discovering the inheritance she got from him.While talking to her mother about aging, a young woman realized how money could not buy everything in this world, particularly love. The Redditor and her mother sat down for a casual conversation about getting old. Just then, her mother recalled a story of the Redditor’s aunt and cousins, highlighting the extent to which one’s flesh and blood could go to make easy money.The Original Poster’s (OP) aunt had five daughters who never really bothered about their parents.
The sisters shared similar personalities and never cared about anybody else unless they benefitted them. Unsurprisingly, they had vague reasons not to visit their sick father. The sisters were either occupied with some work or far away and decided not to waste their time coming home to see their father. The poor older man’s condition worsened, and eventually, he became wholly dependent on his wife. OP’s aunt completely took it upon herself to tend to him despite having five daughters who turned out to be of no help.Unfortunately, the man died, but he left behind some money for his wife in his will. The news of their late father’s inheritance reached the daughters’ ears, and they soon began visiting.
