MY FIERCE STEPMOM KICKED ME OUT OF HOME AND DAD DIDN’T PROTECT ME—ONE CALL MADE HER REGRET IT FOREVER.
I came home after work. Suddenly, my crazy stepmother Karen and my dad stopped me.
Dad: “I don’t know how to say this… but…”
Her: “YOU NEED TO MOVE OUT!”
Me: “WHAT?! Dad, what is she talking about?!”
Her: “My baby is on the way. You’ll just be a burden. We need space for the child!”
Me: “But…Where will I go? I can’t afford rent…I work part-time, and study! And… God, this is my home too! Dad, say something! Please!”
I couldn’t believe it! Was I really being thrown out of my own home?! Dad looked at me, then back at Karen, but stayed silent. I was so done.
Me: “You know what? You two can go to hell!”
I stormed off to my room and slammed the door. There was nothing left for me to do. Only one thing could help me…
So I dialed the number.
My hands trembled as I dialed. I hadn’t wanted to do this, but they left me no choice.
The phone rang once. Twice. Then a voice answered.
“Hello?”
“Grandma…” I barely got the word out before breaking down.
Within an hour, she was at my doorstep. And let me tell you—this 70-year-old woman was furious.
She stormed past my stepmother, who had the audacity to smirk, and went straight for my father.
“You ungrateful excuse for a son!” Grandma roared. “Throwing your own child out for her?! How dare you!”
Karen tried to butt in. “Listen, Mother-in-law, I don’t see what the big deal is. This is our home, and we need space for our baby. She’s an adult—she’ll figure it out!”
Grandma turned slowly, eyes narrowing. “Your home? Last I checked, this house still has my name on the deed.”
Karen’s smirk vanished.
“You—what?”
“Oh, didn’t my son tell you?” Grandma folded her arms. “I paid for this house. And I never signed it over to either of you. So if anyone’s leaving today—it’s YOU.”
Karen gasped. “You can’t do that!”
Grandma turned to me. “Sweetheart, do you want to stay here?”
I nodded, trying not to cry.
“Then that’s settled,” Grandma said. “Karen, pack your things.“
My stepmother lost it, yelling at my dad to do something. But guess what? He just stood there, silent—just like before. Spineless.
Within two days, Karen was gone. She tried begging, even threatened to take my dad’s “future child” with her unless he fought back. But Grandma had lawyers on speed dial. Karen didn’t stand a chance.
As for my dad? He tried to apologize. But too little, too late.
I stayed. He moved out shortly after. And Karen? Well, let’s just say she regretted everything when my dad didn’t have a house, a job, or even enough money to take care of their “perfect family.”
Meanwhile, Grandma helped me finish school.
And I never looked back.
