In my life the bad guy always wins. Here's a little background. My mom and my aunt are drug addicts. My grandparents have raised me, and done a very good job. All my life they have loved and taken care of my sister and me. Lately my aunt even had a baby, she came out addicted to drugs and low birth wieght. My grandparents even had the heart to take her and her new born baby, even though they were both going through withdrawls. Of course my aunt didnt stop, but the baby is healthy and happier than anyone could ever be. Recently my grandpa just started to get ahead with his job. He was making about 200,000 a year, and we were finally starting to pay all the bills we have off. (My grandma was in a car wreck a few years back, and got hurt really bad, so needless to say we have over 50,000 in medical bills.) While my aunt was here she decided that she hated our family and called my grandfathers work and accused him of embezzling money from the company. One of which he managed and the other he owned a part of. Three days later the doctors fired him and he was out of a job. He now works full time at city market in the deli, and part time the night shifts at a factory. We barely get by anymore. The comany did not give him his last paycheck or the money from his vacation time. He was recently called by the IRS because he apparently signed a return for the comany, and they were going under. He took all the paper work he had, and was trying to defend himself. Little did he know it was a set up. He got there, and the lady he had an appointment with left him waiting and called the police. They arrested him and now he is spending the night in jail. My grandfather the man I call my father is now sitting in a cell waiting. He is not a bad person at all and didn't do one thing, but the drug addicts like my mother and my aunt are on the street. There's nothing more to say. The bad guy always wins. Now the company wants $32,000, from the stuff my dad alledgedly stole. Throughout it all my grandma won't cry and is trying to stay strong. We've gotten everything we have worth anything on the table. My moms wedding ring, all my jewlery, ipods, phones, and cameras to pawn and try and just pay the money back. That or get a lawyer and defend my fathers name. We have NEVER been in trouble with the law or anything. My family is a good family doing whatever we can to get by. My dad is the best dad in the world. He's even worked 5 jobs at one point to keep us going. Never proud, and always strong he is a good man. Like i said, the bad guy always wins....for anyone who wants to listen, I just had to write, and tell my story.
