Mr Frank

My dad received a nice letter from his late godfather, informing him of the £35,000 that he had left for us. First thoughts are... 'wow thats a shit load of money!' but the excitement confuses me. I understand that it'd a nice relief that my parents are paying off their mortgage, but at the same time they're getting excited because someone close to our family is no longer around to spend that money. Mum just flat out asked me if I wanted any of it to buy anything with, as much as I'm struggling to keep myself afloat at the moment with shortage of hours I refused. I cant figure why, I just don't want it, i'd spend it and feel guilty. Mums sat there yapping away about it. I'm thankful to Frank don't get me wrong, my parents will be living happily with the mortgage paid off, but i'd rather have Frank around than £35,000 xXx r.i.p
