“I am still devastated. Some of these bands I will never see again. And everything was purchased with my own money.”
So, if you cannot imagine, she totally freaked out on her mother and aunt after they got home. She knew that her mother had to have played some role in it, too, since the garbage bag was obviously from her house, and her stuff had been sitting on the curb awaiting garbage day.
But, her aunt’s only excuse was that “a woman should not have things like that.” Her aunt also said she was going to hell for her interests.
This puzzled her even more since there was nothing provocative on her walls. Sure, some of the posters might have had riskier imagery, but nothing that a priest would throw holy water at, she said.
Nonetheless, at the end of the argument, she ended up getting grounded by her mother for yelling at her aunt.
This seriously pissed her off, but her plan was to wait for her father to arrive home. Then, once he did, she explained everything.
And thankfully, he did agree that the actions of her mom and aunt were not warranted. Still, though, she remained grounded because her parents do not go against each other’s disciplinary efforts.
Her father did do one more thing, though, to show his support for her. Her parents have a family vacation fund that they add to every year for an annual family vacation.
So, following the argument, he transferred a large amount of that money to her account right in front of her mother and aunt so she could be refunded for her lost items.
“Then, he told my mom we aren’t going next year because now, we cannot afford it,” she said.
Of course, this caused her mom to be a bit dramatic and start crying. Still, once the tears began to shed, her father told his wife to knock it off or else he would tell everyone that it was her fault the vacation was off.
