My Parents Called Me A Burden at Thanksgiving Dinner — 7 Months Later... |Linden Revenge

My name is Nia. I am thirty two years old and the director of mergers and acquisitions at a private equity firm in Atlanta. But to my family I am just the unmarried disappointment. At Thanksgiving dinner my mother looked me dead in the eyes in front of everyone and called me a burden. My brother laughed and said at least he made the family proud. I did not scream or cry. I simply put down my fork stood up and left without a single word. Seven months later my father called me in a panic because their historic Tudor mansion was being foreclosed on. He demanded I fix it. I just smiled and told him to ask his pride and joy about the forged paperwork. Before I continue this story let me know where you are watching from in the comments below.

The air inside smelled rich and familiar filled with the scent of roasted turkey candied yams and heavily seasoned collard greens...
