Molly's words made me reconsider my own life. I went home for the weekend, only to discover a shocking secret: my parents had been favoring my brother financially. He received £4,000 a month, while I survived on £200.
When I confronted my mom, she blamed my gender. My father claimed it was "independence training." I packed my bags and left, blocking all family contacts.
I called my brother, only to laugh bitterly at his pleas for help when he got into trouble. Karma, it seemed, had arrived.
