Uncle's Gift
452 Words
Tory was extremely happy to hear that her uncle, who had traveled for years, had returned. Well, not only was Tory happy to hear the news, but the other stepsisters were too.
Tory’s mother was busy with her work and always not caring about what the other wives think or do, she heard her daughter rushing in to call her mother.
Tory: Mom, I have heard my uncle has arrived, and he’s in town. What should we make of him upon his return?
Toy’s mother: Hmm!! Since you care so much, and you put love in everything you do first, I am sure your uncle will love it as well.
Tory: sign, I just want to compete with my other sisters. I know you dislike that, but my other sisters’ mother is doing something to welcome his return. I bet you don’t want me to lose this, right mom …
Tory’s mother: huh, so are you are saying, I should stop this business that I am doing and join you in this stupid competition that will not make me anything but a waste of time?
Tory: is not stupid…... (She mumbles)
Tory’s mother could see the sadness in her daughter's face but chose to ignore it. The uncle came holding three boxes. Each had different ribbons like it a birthday gift, but it was not the three girls' birthday, nor was it a Christmas.
Rose and Jennet, along with their mothers, were there in time to welcome their brother-in-law. They cleaned their whole house in the absence of Tory and her mother. Of course, those two are always finding ways to get money.
The uncle made the two girls choose one of the boxes; well, they were pleased with what was inside. One was a ticket to a royal ball which Rose was the one who took, the other was a document of a built house in the capital which Jennet took; the two girls were too excited about what their uncle had given to them. Later, Tory arrived, and her uncle gave her the last gift, which was an egg inside the box. She took it out of the box with a shocked face.
Rose: wow!! It seems uncle knows that you and your mother love to do business, so he brought you an egg nice one uncle …...
Jennet: stop it Rose that’s what was left besides, Uncle, we loved it thanks
Rose: Yes, uncles I do … mom!!! Please come and see I have gotten a ticket to a royal ball, and I am so happy about this.
Jennet: you shouldn’t worry at least you have got something
Tory: I know, I think (while looking at the egg). Hmm
