Daughter Ashamed of Mother Makes Her Pretend to Be the Maid in Front of Her Fiancé — Story of the Day
|A young woman who is ashamed of her crippled mother tells her to pretend to be a maid when her wealthy fiancé comes to visit.
Nicky Weaver was a selfish, spoiled girl, and if we were to be 100% honest, we’d have to lay the blame at her mother Sophia’s door. After all, Sophia had done the spoiling, lavishing love, attention, and all she could afford on Nicky…
Nicky was an only child, and Sophia’s husband had left her when she’d been severely injured in a car crash when their child was just three years old. Sophia had survived, but her injuries left her crippled and disfigured.
With her husband gone, she focused all her attention and love on her beautiful, bright little girl. But Nicky, instead of blossoming into a kind, generous person, had become demanding, nasty, and hurtful. But life had some lessons in store for her.
It had all started in high school when Nicky suddenly noticed that Sophia didn’t look like everyone else’s athletic, pretty mom. Sophia had a limp, and a terrible scar snaking down her neck.
Nicky realized she didn’t want anyone to know that Sophia was her mother. She refused to allow Sophia to attend any of the school functions where her classmates might see her.
“Look mom!” she’d said to Sophia. “I’m the most popular girl in school and the prettiest — you don’t LOOK like my mom!”
Sophia had swallowed her pain. She wanted Nicky to be happy, to be popular, to be everything she had never been, and so she agreed. She had watched her daughter’s graduation from afar so as not to embarrass her.

Then Nicky went away to college, and during those years, Sophia had missed her dreadfully. She even managed to forget exactly how selfish and unfeeling her child could be.
When Nicky told her mother she had been offered a job in their hometown, Sophia had been delighted. Nicky was back, and she was living at home again! But if Sophia thought the distance would make Nicky sweeter, she was in for a surprise.
Not long after she was back in town, Nicky started dating her boss’s son, a handsome young man who also worked for his law firm. Nicky told her mother, “This is it, mom. George is the big time for me! No more poky little apartments and cheap clothes!”
