But then, all our assumptions were proven wrong with that one event. When that one thing happened, everything started to become clear. I was able to connect the dots because he had a very strange relationship with one of my other aunts, who I would describe as promiscuous and narcissistic. She doesn’t care about who she is trying to engage with; as long as she gets her own fuel and can run away with it, she will do it.
He always preferred to spend time with her rather than with my other aunts. He would drop hints, saying things like, “Yeah, why don’t you call her over? It’s fine if she spends a couple of nights with us. I don’t mind her being here,” but when it came to the other aunts, he would say, “Don’t ever mention them; I don’t even want to see their shadow.”
Now I am fully convinced that when both of them were left alone, they engaged in activities I do not even want to think about. I am sure that sexual betrayal was present, and my mother did not take serious action about it, which she should have. I know some things about her that I am not ready to discuss, but there is so much shock that I am still processing. I have learned things that I am still trying to understand. A part of me is still in disbelief, wondering, “Could this be real? How could she do that? How could he do that?” They never acted that way, and they never made it obvious they were talking to anyone.
But now, this information has come out, and she pretended to be a victim of my father. Both of them share an element of narcissism in this regard.
Sharing is caring!
