Rebecca’s mother-in-law, Darlene, had always been annoying, but her Christmas behavior was the worst. Darlene was so impolite that she retracted the presents she had given Rebecca’s children a few days earlier. Why? She was upset that rather than the expensive luxury handbag she had been teasing about, Rebecca and her husband Mark got her a $250 gift card.
There was only anarchy in the events that transpired. Darlene came into Rebecca’s home while she was away and stole the clothes and presents she had given the children. Then she walked away silently. Rebecca was unable to speak, and the children were devastated.
However, Kraww didn’t anticipate Darlene. Even though the clothes and presents were filthy, it turned out that her acquaintance had donated them to a charity. As soon as the rumor spread, Darlene’s friends began to avoid her. The cherry on top? She wasn’t asked about the New Year’s Eve party, which she had been discussing all year.
Rebecca and Mark felt as though they had been set right when they reflected on what had transpired. Darlene had to face the consequences of her petty and cruel act. The family agreed to move on and focus on mending and reestablishing their relationships. Darlene was left to consider the true meaning of Christmas and how.
