Summary
My father-in-law summoned the whole family to the living room of the old house.
On the vintage dining table sat a teapot, a bowl of sunflower seeds, and a stack of property deeds.
Seven of them.
They were bound in red leather with gold lettering, stacked right in the center of the table.
My father-in-law sat at the head of the table. He coughed twice and cleared his throat.
"I called you all here today for one reason."
"The properties. It's time to distribute them."
My heart skipped a beat.
