My Parents Gave My Cousin Flowers At MY Graduation And Called Me The Disappointment. Big Mistake.

They clapped for every stranger who walked across that stage. But when my name was called? Mom was on her phone. Dad was whispering to my cousin. And after the ceremony, the flowers went to him — not me. Then Dad clapped me on the shoulder and said, "Don't get excited. A degree doesn't fix being the disappointment." I smiled for the family photo anyway. What they didn't know was that I'd already accepted a job offer. A month later, Dad called me screaming — because his new boss kept asking if we were related.
