Things have gone bad at home, and I don’t know how to tell my sister. A few weeks ago, my dad called me to come home, saying there was something we had to discuss. When I got home, he admitted to me that money is very tight right now. He said there was an investment he made that will mature in a few years, but until then, he doesn’t know what to do. I kind of suspected that because for a few months now, my dad has been stressing and telling us to manage our feeding money. I’m in my finals and my sister is in 200 level. When the government loan thing came up a few months ago, he told my sister to apply for it since she still has three more years ahead of her.
I was the one who did it though, because my sister was having certain issues with it. I don’t even know if the loan is going to come because up till now, it’s still pending. Because of the sudden hike in school fees, we had to pay only half of it for the first semester, and by God’s grace, next month we’ll be able to pay (according to my dad). The thing now is, I don’t know how to talk to my sister about it. We both stay in the hostel and sometimes, I give her money from my own feeding money when hers isn’t enough. My sister knows that things aren’t rosy right now, but she doesn’t know just how bad it is. Please, how do I talk to her? I’ll be in the comment section.
