My Dad Asked, “Is Your Allowance Sufficient?” I Replied, “What Allowance?”

Attic suggestion

The lawyer couldn’t provide much but suggested I look into some old family documents stored in our grandparents’ attic.

With limited options, I decided to take his advice. The old house had always been a treasure trove of family history—full of dusty boxes and forgotten artifacts.

Armed with determination, I headed there, hoping to uncover something that could explain my parents’ baffling decision.

Each step toward the attic felt heavy with the weight of unresolved questions.
