Fuck. What a bombshell. My best mate, hereinafter referred to as Flash, has just been pushed from the family nest. His mum's moving to Swan Hill with her gentleman, and Flash's sister and boyfriend are going to rent the family home - on the condition that Flash isn't living there. All details are as told to me by Flash, so there may be omissions and commissions, but he's a bit stunned by all this.
Flash, for those who don't know - is a good mate of mine, who made a right mess of himself almost 3 years ago, just before the wedding (he was still in a coma for the wedding, so his Mum came instead). Since then, he's been living back at Mum's. There is still surgeries to be had before he's able to get back to work (maybe) and they're in Melbourne, about 2 hours from Bendigo, 3 from the North East, and 4 from Swan Hill by the most expedient transport.
Dad, well, his Dad died of cancer about 5 years ago, so there's no foul committed with Mum having a gentleman in my book.
According to him, his options are
1. Move in to Bendigo and rent, which he probably can't afford.
2. Move to somewhere up the North East of Victoria to be nearer to the girlfriend.
3. There is a possibility (but I wasn't told this) to move to Swan Hill with Mum and the gentleman.
I just dunno how to help in this case. and THAT's what really pisses me off about the whole thing. He can't move in with me, that's just not an option. For everything else, I'm just the listener. |
