When my parents divorced, they agreed that my sister and I would each live with one of them for a year, then switch. Every September, we traded houses. One daughter with Mom for the school year, the other with Dad. But every handoff turned into a fight over my younger sister, Quinn. "Quinn, come away with Mom for fall break." Dad frowned. "She's with me this year. Stop interfering." Mom's smile went thin. "Last year I had a business trip and left her with you for seventeen days. I want those days back." "It wasn't a full seventeen days. It was sixteen days and eight hours." Quinn sighed sweetly. "If only I could split myself in half." They argued for a long time, and in the end they each gave a little. They would both take Quinn to Seabreeze Island for fall break. Quinn asked, curious, "What about Gwen?" Dad looked away. "She isn't mine this year anyway." Mom, who hadn't looked me in the eye once since walking in, finally turned my way. "Work is busy this year. I don't want to be raising a kid. Go stay with your grandparents." Under the table, my fingernails dug crescents into my palms until they bled. Mom had just spent twenty minutes arguing with Dad over seventeen extra days with Quinn. Then, with one sentence, she found a reason to send me somewhere else. My phone buzzed. It was a message from Ms. Alvarez, my advisor.#revengestory #reddit_tiktok #askredditstories #relationship #revengereturns #reddit #drama #revenge #redditstories #redditreadings
