I found out I had an uncle I'd never known.

I found out about him when he was dead, I never even knew he existed. My grandmother died of a heart attack on new year's day 2005. She was a heavy smoker and drinker, so it wasn't shocking. I was 14 at the time, and I hated her. She was abusive and cruel, I haven't spoken about it much. I'm not sure why. Not even my therapist knows.<br><br>She died so I had to move in with my aunt, who had found out she was pregnant. I was so angry at her, but I was relieved to be out of the house. It was late January, and I had no idea where I'd be after my aunt had her baby. I was 14, I had no idea how to take care of myself. I didn't want to be taken into care, I had heard so many horror stories. I was furious at my grandmother for pulling another stunt like she always did.<br><br>My aunt had a baby girl, and she was beautiful. I remember wanting to kill her so many times, but I didn't. When her baby came home from the hospital, I just felt like I was intruding. I knew she didn't want me there. I was on my phone when her husband came home, he found me hidden in my room, in tears. I was sobbing. He opened the door and he told me that he thought I might want to know, my grandmother had died, and she had left me a hidden trust.<br><br>I was confused, I didn't understand. My aunt told me that my grandmother had another son, he died before I was born. His name was John, and he died 5 years before I was born. My aunt and my uncle had a falling out with their parents, and my uncle wasn't close with them. They had all agreed to split the inheritance, but my grandmother hated my uncle more than my aunt.<br><br>John died and he told my aunt and uncle that all of his money was mine. I told my aunt that she was lying and she showed me the letter. I broke down, and my aunt told me it was 1 million dollars. I had 1 million dollars. I had never seen so much money in my life.<br><br>I bought a house, and my aunt and uncle helped me set everything up. My aunt started sobbing, and I found out she had an affair with John. She had been wanting him for years, and they had sex. My aunt had been wanting to fuck her brother for years, and she did. I told my uncle that he was right all along, and he smiled.<br><br>I bought a house, and I've lived here ever since. My aunt and uncle have been my main carers for years. I told my friend and he laughed so hard. My life is crazy, and I'm happy. This is my first post here, and I'm grateful.
