Life went on day by day.I lived under someone else's roof and often endured the bullying of my sister-in-law,Tom,and the gossip of my mother-in-law.
The date Aaron promised to come back from his business trip was postponed by three days.
One afternoon,my mother-in-law was taking a nap,and my sister-in-law was nowhere to be found.She was always going out to play cards and drink with all kinds of people.
I received a call from Tom's head teacher.
“Hello?Are you Tom's aunt?”
Because my sister-in-law was unreliable and Tom had a trouble-making personality,several times when Tom got into trouble at school,the head teacher would directly call me.
“What happened?”
“Please come to the school immediately.”
I quickly went to the school.In the office,Tom and another child were standing in front of the head teacher.
Before I could figure out what was going on,the parents of the other child,who seemed to be,soon arrived.
The head teacher explained the situation.It turned out that for some reason,Tom suddenly attacked his classmate during the break today.
I frowned and asked Tom,“Why did you hit someone?”
Tom rolled his eyes at me.
Finally,it was the head teacher who asked.Tom reluctantly took out a brand-new mobile phone from his pocket.It was a big brand,and one such phone cost five or six thousand dollars.
I asked in surprise,“Where did you get this?”
“It's none of your business!”Tom shouted at me,“Grandma bought it for me!”
I tightened my jaw.I still remembered that my phone had been used for two or three years and was so slow that it couldn't be used anymore.When I wanted to buy a new one,my mother-in-law said I was being picky.
Every day,the money for buying groceries was calculated down to the last dollar and cent,but she bought a new phone for Tom without batting an eye?
The content on Tom's phone shocked me and the head teacher.
Now that the Internet is developed,even very young children can access a lot of things that only adults can understand.
Tom's phone was full of small games,and without exception,the covers of these games were extremely violent and bloody.
I suddenly realized that perhaps Tom's increasingly naughty character was learned from these games!
Today's attack was also because Tom got tired of playing games and was curious to try it out in reality.
The head teacher gave me a long and earnest lecture,basically saying that parents couldn't spoil their children too much.
Electronic products like this must be confiscated.Tom's character had been more or less affected by violent games,and it was necessary to stop it in time and turn back from the brink.
“Old hag!”In front of me,Tom tightly held his phone and even waved his fist at me!
“Don't even think about taking my phone!You're not worthy!You're a barren sow!Get lost!”
“......”
Under the eyes of everyone in the office,I felt as if I had been skinned and stripped of my flesh,extremely embarrassed.
These words were usually said by my mother-in-law.Tom had unconsciously learned them.
What was even more hateful was that Tom didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.He was gloating.
