This could be a plot in an awful soap.

Cast of characters:-

A 63 year old father of two who has worked hard his all life and with each passing year, gets more and more angrier and moodier.

The wife. A 58 year old crazy woman who never lets her husband do ANYTHING. A woman who never seems to want people to be happy. Has a lot of money. Is very conniving, devious and malicious.

A 37 year old daughter with a cold heart. Lives in her own house with a cat. Not much of a personality apart from a horrific nasty side. Hates the mother.

A 31 year old handsome man who is the son and has been unlucky in life. Had to reluctantly move back in with his parents. Doesn't really have much going for him at the moment. Has no money. But always tries to say and do the right thing.

The plot:-          

After years and years of an unhappy marriage, the husband gets increasingly frustrated as he feels he isn't able to live a life due to the crazy wife. He always sneaks about when wanting to do something like binge eat or drink. This really starts to affect his health. The son sees all this and tries to stop it by telling his father and the crazy mother who pays no attention. His sister doesn't really get involved. She is too busy with her cat.

The father eventually had a stroke and a week later, passes away. The mother gets all the money from his bank account naturally but the father has a secret beneficiary for his children. He didn't want his crazy wife knowing about this beneficiary as he didn't want her to get her hands on it. It was only for the children. His wife has enough money-and the house.

The wife finds out about the beneficiary due to a mistake from the husbands' work. She gets a solicitor and after months of door slamming, yelling and cursing, she somehow eventually gets most of the money. She must have got a really good solicitor to go against the fathers' last wish which was written in paper.

The children are distraught. The daughter hates her mother even more and the son is in complete disbelief that a mother can do this to her children. Steal money that is rightfully theirs. As if they didn't have enough to go through. He also thinks that maybe the father ate and drank himself to death so the children could have this money as if he had retired before he passed away, there wouldn't be any money.

Sometimes when things happen in life, it all just seems so fucked up that it doesn't seem like it is real.
