After my father's death, the only inheritance he left for us was the house we were living in. Sometimes you wonder why people behave the way they behave and since my father died, I have always wondered why he behaved the way he behaved. My father was wealthy, he was a CEO for an Oil and Gas company and he had been doing it for years. Before my father died He was a mad man with his money. He had this mentality of "you didn't work with me for my money, so why should I spend it on you?" But nigga, I'm your child! I'm the last born of 2 children and I always wondered how my mum ended up with him. When people ask her how they ended up together, she would give the excuse of he hasn't always been like this; "money changed him". Ah-ah He was a mad man with his money. He had this mentality of "you didn't work with me for my money, so why should I spend it on you?" But nigga, I'm your child! I'm the last born of 2 children and I always wondered how my mum ended up with him. When people ask her how they ended up together, she would give the excuse of he hasn't always been like this; "money changed him". Ah-ah which kind I trust new age girls, if a man isn't sending money to them or spoiling them, they would have cut him off danudanu. Whenever my mother needed money for something, she firstly had to go through protocol 😅 My father had a timetable for spending his money. The only times he sent money voluntarily was when he wanted to send money to my mother for monthly restock. Mm. I love that Mad ooo The only times he sent money voluntarily was when he wanted to send money to my mother for monthly restock. when he wanted to pay his children's school fees and when he wanted to send us feeding allowance. Anything asides these, dey play. He doesn't send my mother money for hairs, clothes or anything she might need not to talk of my sisters or me. He would say "if you wanted to spend my money with me, you should have started working for me" I knew it was bad when one day my mother went to meet him, kneeling that her mother needed around 450k for a particular operation. My father looked her dead in the eyes, firstly confused before he said "I haven't even given you money, do you think I would give your mother?" you would think rich men should be the most generous and if you want to be stingy with money, it shouldn't be to your family members at least. Ah ah which kind notmoney Mm-hmm. You think rich men should be the most generous and if you want to be stingy with money, it shouldn't be to your family members at least. He later sent her 100k and put it in the narration "to ease the burden of sourcing for 450k" my mother sent his money back sha 😂 One other time, my elder sister was in her final year and said she needed a laptop so she could do her project easily. She first went to my mum because she believed my mum would be in the best position to tell him, they went together. My father told them that he'd buy the laptop on his own terms and not because she needed it at that moment. He said for the meantime, she should use her smartphone. He actually bought her the laptop but that wasn't until 2nd semester of her final year. Fast forward to when he died, I wasn't sad o, I don't think my sisters were too. My mum might have been but yeah, she recovered quickly. We were mostly happy that we'd be able to spend his money that he wanted to carry with him to heaven. The day the lawyer came home, he came with a woman and a little boy. We were wondering why the lawyer came with his family to read my father's will. By the time the lawyer started with the will, we realized the young woman and child that walked in with the lawyer is my father's second wife and child 😂
