Selling a Family House
by
This is the fictional account of a series about a family that deals with large purchases and sales. The family and their buyers / sellers get entangled in a complicated web of complex paperwork, old and new grudges, greed, and plain old stupidity. This account is about greed, clumsiness, ineptness, and ultimately about human resilience.
Carry was beyond herself. It was the day of reading of her late mother's will, and she learned that her beloved house, where she spent so much time playing, when she was a little child, was left as an inheritance to her younger sister, Bridgette. Carry always hated Bridgette for no particular reason, or better yet, for every particular reason. Summed up all together, all those "particular reasons" equaled a huge intolerance of the very fact that Bridgette existed. Now that Bridgette inherited that house, Carry felt that her patience was a cup spilling over in all directions. She decided to act, and to act fast.
