I’m a 21F and I came home after exams, and my younger sister (11yrs)told me something that broke me. She found call recordings on my dad’s phone — him talking to another woman in a very suspicious way. She showed it to my mom last week.
My mom confronted him, but he didn’t explain anything. He just ignored it and kept going out drinking like he always does. He’s always been irresponsible, never saved money, has loans, drinks every night, and acts like a “good man” only in front of others. But at home, we all know the truth.
My mom is the one who works, supports us, pays our college fees, and keeps the family running with help from her family. She doesn’t deserve this at all. She’s the strongest and kindest person I know.
What hurts me the most is that this isn’t the first time. I actually saw something similar on his phone this same women and other one …years ago when I was a teenager 15yrs , but I kept quiet because I was scared it would tear the family apart.
Now everything feels normal at home on the outside, but I can feel the pain sitting under the surface. I’m shocked, angry, sad, and I don’t even know how to face my parents. I still have one exam left and my mind is a mess. I have a sister too she is studying degree
I don’t know what to do or how to support my mom. I just needed to get this off my chest.P
Today I came home. Now everything is like normal parents behaviour. My younger sister told me mom tell her that not tell this to me bcz now I'm on my exam days. But she told everything. May I ask about this to my mom now?
