Ties of Many Part 1
|
There always comes a time where you know which friends to cut and which to keep. I am not saying that I am cutting any of the friends that I have made on here, no none of you have ever done me wrong.
What I am getting at is in the Real World, away from this virtual home that I hold so dear. I may be gone for months at a time, but I always manage to find my way back home.
In the land far beyond the touch of A4, I thought that I had a friend that was supporting me through my time of need. Its not like I haven't written about it and to this day I still feel as if one day she may come home and that I will be able to hear the tender words that would bring me to my knees. Well that sentence made me cry.
Alright back to the story. I was preparing to move in with a person that I thought was my friend. That way I wouldn't have to live alone while I am going through the toughest time of my life. So that being the basis of the story. Her and I were going to rent an apartment.
Though while we were about to sign the lease I found out that I needed to get another person to sign for me because my income wasn't dependable enough. Which I completely understood. Just so that you readers are aware I had brought my portion of the rent that day.
Since I didn't have a person to sign after me to cover the bases, it turn that I had brought that money for nothing. I was prepared to bring that money back home with me but my "friends" mother said that it would make more sense just to leave it within the folder that was keeping all of our paper work.
My "friends" mom also assured me that she would keep the folder that now had my money in it, within her room(that has a lock on the door) for safe keeping. Even more assuring me that I could trust her. Personally at the time I thought that she was being sincere, being that my mom had just passed away. I thought that she was just trying to be a motherly figure.
After a few weeks had gone by I went over to pick my money back up to find that it was no longer in the folder. I never pointed fingers, as much as I wanted to I never did. The issue with all this is that, that folder was not in her mothers room but in my "friends" room. I found that odd considering what her mother had said to me.
Turns out her mom was out for the most part and once she came home I asked her on where could my money had gone. Her mom immediately said "I didn't take it. That folder was sitting at the bottom of the stairs for the longest time". Then somehow got its way to my "friends" room.
Let me put a time frame on this for you. From the day that I had seen the apartment until the day that I had found out that my money was missing. Is a lapse of 22 days. On the day that I saw that apartment my "friend" went to another town for a hook up. While her mom drove me home, and that folder remained by my thigh until I got home. Before I had gotten out of the car completely I repeated to her mom "your going to put that folder in your room right?". Where she had then assured me "It will be locked up safe in my room". So fro there I closed the door to the car and she drove away. I will let you know her house isn't even a 5 minute drive from mine. Now here there is the kick in the pants. How does one forget what they had said for more then 5 minutes ago.
Okay now back to the story. I have been waiting nearly 2 months and neither my "friend" nor her mom has respectably tried to atone for what had happened. Even after my "friend" said "I figure something out, even if it is just $50/month". I will let you all know that $50/month would take too long to repay considering it wasn't a loan. Not to mention because her and I didn't get the apartment I decided that I really wanted to use the money to put partly towards my education.
So you can bet that I had told her that I didn't want to move out with her because I felt that things were just one bad things after another for her and I. I am kind of very glad that I dodged that bullet. I really coming to understand that she isnt the best kind of person that I could surround myself with.
Anyway recently I called the cops to find out what my options are, SO far pretty good whether I get that money back or not. If I get my money back awesome, and I will put it towards an education. Cause I know that I need a higher one then just high school. If I do not get my money back at the very least I am proving a point which is I am a force to be reckoned with and don't **** with me.
So as I contacted my "friend" because that is what the detective had told me to do(keep in mind this "friend" was already upset at my for calling the cops). So I was expecting the worst and that is exactly what happened. She cussed at me and basically was saying good luck to me in trying to get my money back.
So my question to the few of you that have probably read this far. Out of the Mother and my supposed friend which do you think did it?
I can honestly say that I believe that he mom did, and even if she didn't she is liable for saying to me that she would keep it safe within her room.
