Apparently, My Sister is a Bigger Bitch Than I Thought
I have to vent, I really do! Rage is burning it's way through my heart, and I don't know how to handle it.
Backstory:
My parents and I lived in the family house. My sister was grown-up and gone. Parents and I move to condo 5-years ago, sister wanted to buy house. Gave her really good deal on house. House goes in her fiance's name. She gets to keep pool, all tools in shed, washer/dryer, furniture, etc. In the basement were Dad's upright piano that belonged to his grandfather and that he learned to play on. Sister would store that for him because no room at the condo. Also in the basement was my 18 foot wooden sea kayak that we also had no room for. I eventually wanted to use it again, or sell it, so she was storing it as well. Both were out of the way, plenty of room to spare. Dad even specifically said if sister ever sold house, let him know so he could arrange other storage for the items. Sister said of course, she loved the piano because she learned on it too, and knew how important the kayak was to me because I build it. I eventually moved to an apartment, where again, no room for the kayak. That was about 3-years ago. My sister even helped me move.
Parents call me today. They had heard from someone that my sister had GIVEN AWAY BOTH ITEMS!!! AND SHE HAD DONE SO 3-YEARS AGO! So she's been stringing us along all this time. Parents didn't want to believe it and confronted sister. Sister admitted it. Someone had done electrical work for her and she'd given him the piano as payment! She had a 'buddy' who kayaks and since I 'wasn't using it' she gave it to him as payment for some odd jobs he did! (Knowing the intelligence of her friends, the piano is by now firewood and my kayak is at the bottom of a white-water river where it was never intended to sail!) Dad was heartbroken and upset, and cried when he had to tell me. He still doesn't know how to tell my grandma who is in the hospital right now. My sister's excuse: "I forgot I was storing them for you!"
If you had forgotten, why did you not ask? Why did you not tell us until it was too late to do anything about it?
I want Dad to take legal action (he still has the original bill of sale from when great-grandpa bought the piano!), but he's upset now and has to think about it. I want the full cost of materials that I put-into building my kayak. However, my sister has dug herself into a deep financial pit and wouldn't be able to pay anyway. What she did was a crime, legally and morally. Dad doesn't even want the piano back unless it is in the same condition in which he left it; he said it would break his heart if he saw it destroyed. He said he didn't want to tell me, but since I am moving into a house soon, I was planning on returning for my kayak anyway, and then I would have found out.
My sister has no morals or ethics and spends a lot of time doing nice things for friends and complete strangers because her family knows the type of person she is, and she can't play us anymore. She gets others to like her by giving giving giving, to convince herself in her mind that she's a good person. She never does anything for anyone unless it profits or benefits her.
I never want to speak to the snake-tongued bitch for doing that to my, our, Dad. He had been working part-time as a driver for a small business she runs. When she saw how upset he was the first words out of her mouth were "You're not quitting, are you!?" Yes, she was more concerned with hiring a new employee than she was breaking her father''s heart. He told her he was putting in 2-weeks notice, because he could not stand to talk to her right now, and did not know when he'd want to do so again.
I hate her, I want to call her and scream. I don't even care about her paying for my kayak, I just cannot believe she would be so deceptive and cruel to us. Of course, any attempt to make her accept wrongdoing has always resulted in her laying a guilt-trip on us a mile long and threatening suicide. I think this is the last straw though. Someday, she needs to pay for what she does to people, especially her own family who have always been there for her. But anything that doesn't have to do with her is pretty much beneath her caring; unless it will get her something and make her money.
Karma's a bitch sister dear, and don't call me to cry when life becomes 'unfair!'

Nevermind that.
