1. I Inherited Grandma’s Old Clocks & My Greedy Brother Got the House
I adored my grandma, Marlene, more than anything. Until a year ago, I’d lived with her, sharing her cozy little house filled with her collection of old clocks and stories. She was my safe haven and my biggest fan.
But last year, I had to move away because of college.
One evening, I got a call from her. Her voice sounded soft and frail.

“Linda, sweetheart, could you come over? I don’t think I have much time left,” she said, almost in a whisper.
My heart sank. “Oh, Granny, don’t talk like that! I’ll apply for leave right away and be there in a couple of days. Don’t you worry, okay?”
When I arrived at her house three days later, my brother Brian was already there. He was a few years older than me, with a sharp edge to his personality.
I immediately rushed to hug her upon entering the house.
“I’m here, Grandma,” I whispered, feeling an ache in my heart.

“Oh, my sweet girl,” she smiled, looking so tired yet so happy.
Meanwhile, Brian glanced around with a frown.
“At least you could have kept the house clean, Grandma. It’s so… dusty,” he muttered, brushing an imaginary speck off his shoulder.
Oh please, Brian! I thought. Grandma needs care, not criticism.
I just rolled my eyes and ignored him because I didn’t want to create a scene in front of Grandma.
A few minutes later, she sat us down in her small living room and handed each of us an envelope.

Inside was $5,000.
“Linda, Brian, I wanted to give you both something,” she said, her voice trembling slightly.
I took her hand. “Granny, you didn’t have to do this. I’m here to spend time with you, not for money.”
Brian, on the other hand, scowled. “Is this all I get? Seriously?”
Before Grandma could respond, he stormed outside, slamming the door behind him.
He’s crazy, I thought.

I stayed by her side over the next few days, cleaning the house, cooking fresh meals, and fixing things up. She had been living on stale food, and there were cracks and leaks that hadn’t been tended to in years.
“You don’t have to do so much, Linda. I don’t want to take up all your time and money,” she said, shaking her head as I patched a leak.
I grinned, holding her hand. “Grandma, I know how much you’ve always wanted Grandpa’s house to feel like home again. I had some savings, so I thought, why not? Are you happy now, Grandma? Is this how you remember it with Grandpa?”

“Oh, Linda,” she smiled as tears trickled down her cheeks. “Yes. Yes, it’s beautiful. Thank you.”
Then, one quiet morning, I found her peacefully gone in her sleep. The house felt hollow without her laughter and warmth.
Meanwhile, Brian didn’t even come to the funeral. It hurt me deeply, but I tried to focus on honoring her memory.
Two weeks later, we were called to the lawyer’s office for the reading of her will. Brian and I sat in silence as the lawyer began.

“Brian,” he announced, “you have been left the house.”
Brian smirked, clearly pleased. He always had his eyes on the house.
Then, the lawyer turned to me, smiling gently. “Linda, your grandmother left you her clocks.”
“The… clocks?” I asked, feeling a bit deflated.
He handed me five old, rusty clocks, each with a dull patina. My face flushed with embarrassment as Brian snickered.
But then the lawyer handed me an envelope.

“Your grandmother loved you more than anyone, Linda,” he said softly.
Curious, I opened the envelope. The note inside was in Grandma’s handwriting:
Linda, never underestimate these rusty old clocks!
They are 100-year-old classic timepieces that belonged to your grandfather. Each piece is crafted from rare, exquisite metal and worth about $40,000!
Everyone gets what they truly deserve, my dear. I’m glad you got only the best.
With all my love, Granny Marlene.
My heart raced as I read her words.

“She left nearly $200,000 hidden in these seemingly worn-out clocks,” the lawyer smiled.
I looked at the clocks as tears blurred my vision. Meanwhile, Brian rose from his seat.
“What? Those things are worth that much?” he asked, his face pale.
I smiled through my tears. “Yes, Brian. Grandma knew exactly what she was doing.”
I clutched one of the clocks close to my chest, and felt as its rhythm synced with my heartbeat. It felt almost as if Grandma was still with me.
Thank you, Grandma, I thought as I walked out of the office with her beloved clocks. Thank you for giving me a piece of your heart to carry forever.

2. Grandma’s Will Left Me Nothing Until I Discovered Her Secret Plan
My grandma was everything to me. Growing up, I spent every free moment on her farm, learning the rhythm of the land and the needs of the animals. I enjoyed everything from feeding the chickens to watching the crops grow.
Meanwhile, my sister, Felicity, only visited the farm to click beautiful photos for her social media.
So, when Grandma passed, it felt like a piece of me went with her. Losing her so suddenly was a shock I wasn’t ready for.

Shortly after her passing, I got a call from her lawyer. “Diana, we’re reading the will tomorrow at noon. You and Felicity need to be there.”
My heart pounded as I arrived at his office, Felicity already seated with her typical annoyed expression.
The lawyer cleared his throat, then handed me an envelope. It was a letter from Grandma.

My dearest Diana,
If you’re reading this, the time has come for a choice. I know you love this farm, and it has been a part of you as much as it was of me. But I needed to be sure that its true caretaker would emerge. I have left the farm to Felicity, but I have also granted you the right to live here as long as you wish.
As long as you remain on the farm, it cannot be sold. Please be patient, my dear. The second part of my will shall be revealed in three months.
Love,
Grandma.

I swallowed hard, confusion mixing with pain. Why didn’t she leave the farm to me outright? Didn’t she trust me?
Still, I respected her wishes and resolved to stay on the farm. Felicity, of course, had other plans.
“Diana,” she sneered the following week, waving a check in my face. “Why don’t you just take this and leave? You can’t live out here forever.”
I shook my head. “This is what Grandma wanted. I’m staying.”

“Get over it, Diana!” she snapped. “Go home!”
Her frustration turned into an all-out war a few days later when the farmhouse caught fire. I stood there, helpless, as flames devoured my memories.
Jack, the farm’s caretaker, held my arm to steady me. “It’s okay, Diana. We can rebuild.”
“But the house… everything’s gone,” I cried.
A few hours later, Jack and I saw Felicity hovering near the wreckage. She seemed too pleased for someone who lost a major part of her property.
A woman smiling | Source: Midjourney
“What are you doing here?” I asked. “When did you come?”
“I just… arrived,” she stammered. “But, uh, the house is gone. So what’s left here for you, Diana?”
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“You should leave before you lose your job over this obsession!”
“I won’t leave,” I replied. “I’m not going anywhere.”

Jack took me aside afterward, gently nudging me to consider leaving, but I couldn’t. Grandma’s memory was tied to every inch of that farm.
Understanding my stubbornness, Jack kindly offered me a room at his house, which was nearby.
I spent the next few months living there, visiting the farm every day. Even after I lost my job, all I cared about was keeping Grandma’s legacy alive.
When three months finally passed, the lawyer called us in again to read the second part of the will.
I took a deep breath as the lawyer opened a sealed envelope and began to read aloud.
“My dear Felicity and Diana,” he began.

“If you’re hearing this, the time has come for the farm to find its true guardian. Felicity, I know this may come as a surprise, but I always intended for the farm to belong to the one who truly cares for it. As far as I know, Diana has taken responsibility for managing the farm, so if no one objects…”
Felicity’s face paled. She cut him off, shouting, “This is ridiculous! Diana burned down the house! She’s a failure!”
But Jack, who had accompanied me, stood up calmly.

“I think it’s time we tell the truth,” he said, handing the lawyer a receipt. “I saw Felicity near the farm on the day of the fire. She was seen purchasing gasoline from the local store that afternoon.”
The lawyer looked over the receipt, then leveled a firm gaze at Felicity. “This evidence suggests otherwise, Ms. Felicity.”
“That’s not true,” she lied, but she couldn’t hide the truth for too long.
“Fine! Yes, it was me!” she snapped and then looked at me. “Somebody had to help her move on!”

“You’ll have to face some legal consequences for your actions, Ms. Felicity,” the lawyer said.
Then, he turned to me and said, “Diana, the farm is now officially yours.”
I stood there with eyes wide open as I realized what Grandma had done. She had known all along.
By giving Felicity control with conditions, she had drawn out Felicity’s true nature, leaving the farm in the hands of the person who would care for it.

3. I Was Upset That My Grandfather Only Left Me an Old Apiary until I Looked into the Beehives
When I was fifteen, my grandfather, David, passed away. I was devastated. I never thought my loving, wise Grandpa, who had raised me with Aunt Daphne, would leave me so soon.
He’d always been there, filling our home with stories, patience, and life lessons I’d only half-listened to. Losing him left a hole I couldn’t understand, and a part of me expected his will might hold some comfort.

At the reading, my older brother, Richard, inherited nearly a million dollars.
I felt my heart sink when the lawyer only handed me an envelope. Inside was a letter from Grandpa.
My dearest Chloe,
I know you might feel let down, but please hear me out. I’m leaving you my apiary with al the beehives I’ve spent years tending to. It may not seem like much now, but trust me, you’ll see its true value in time. With patience and care, it will teach you things far more valuable than money.
With all my love,
Grandpa.

“An apiary?” I muttered.
The impatient teenager that I was couldn’t understand why Grandpa wanted me to have that old collection of beehives.
Days passed, and I ignored the apiary. I shrugged it off whenever Aunt Daphne nudged me to check on it.
I couldn’t be bothered, especially with a dozen other things on my mind.
Finally, Aunt Daphne put her foot down.
“You’re grounded, young lady!” she declared one evening.
“Grounded?” I asked. “For what?”

“For shirking responsibility,” she replied, her eyes narrowing. “Your grandpa wanted this for you, Chloe. It’s about responsibility, not bees.”
“But Aunt Daphne, I’m scared of getting stung!” I protested.
“You’ll have protective gear,” she replied. “A little fear is normal, but you can’t let it stop you.”
Reluctantly, I went to the apiary, wearing thick gloves and a bee suit, feeling ridiculous and slightly terrified. As I opened the first hive, I was hit with the sweet scent of honey.

I hesitated, but Aunt Daphne’s words about responsibility echoed in my mind. Slowly, I started harvesting the honey, trying not to flinch when a bee buzzed too close.
Then, as I lifted a hive frame, I noticed a weather-beaten plastic bag tucked inside.
What’s this? I thought.

I Was Upset That My Grandfather Only Left Me an Old Apiary until I Looked into the Beehives — Story of the Day
I quickly took it out and found a faded, hand-drawn map with strange markings. I immediately recognized Grandpa’s handwriting on it.
Curiosity trumped fear, and I followed the map, leading me through a small wooded area behind our house.

I stumbled over roots, swatted at mosquitoes, and nearly tripped a few times. Each time, Grandpa’s voice floated through my thoughts.
“Stay calm, Chloe. Rushing never gets you where you need to go.”
Taking a deep breath, I pressed on, eventually finding an old shed nestled among the trees.
Inside, there was another note pinned to a rickety shelf. It read, Almost there, Chloe. This journey’s about patience. Go to the bridge.
I shook my head, smiling at Grandpa’s persistence.

Crossing the fields toward the bridge, I found myself navigating muddy patches and thorns snagging at my clothes.
“Hard work’s nothing to fear,” Grandpa had always said. “The best things come to those who put in the effort.”
At last, I reached the bridge. There, I found a small box under a loose plank. My hands trembled as I opened it.
Inside the box was a photograph of Grandpa and me, beaming, holding a bottle of honey we’d harvested years ago.
Next to it was a small note.

It read:
Dear Chloe,
The greatest gifts in life aren’t things. They’re the lessons we learn, the patience we build, and the love we share. I wanted you to understand that wealth isn’t just money. It’s in hard work, patience, and caring for something. Thank you for following through. Our house, and the bees, they’re a part of you.
With all my love,
Grandpa.
I clutched the note as I finally understood why Grandpa left the apiary for me.

All this time, he had known exactly what I needed, far beyond any amount of money. Grandpa had set this up to show me a path that would stay with me forever.
When I returned to the house, Aunt Daphne was waiting. I told her everything, and she gave me a gentle smile.
“I knew he’d leave you a treasure hunt,” she said softly, pulling me into a hug. “He wanted you to see the true value of his gift.”

I promised Aunt Daphne I’d look after the bees from then on.
And now, years later, I’m still here, tending Grandpa’s apiary. The lessons he left me are ingrained in every hive and honeycomb.
My little boy, Ben, often joins me and excitedly peeks into the hives. His favorite part is when we fill the honey jars together.
Grandpa taught me more than I ever imagined, and now I’m passing those lessons down.

I Was Always Invisible Until the Most Handsome Man at Work Noticed Me but the Truth Shattered My Heart — Story of the Day
He never even knew my name until one day, he did. Suddenly, the most charismatic man in the office was everywhere, flashing his perfect smile and asking me out. But why now? Something didn’t add up. And when I finally discovered the reason, it shattered me.
When no one notices you, at first, it hurts. You try to change the situation. Then, you accept it. And eventually, you even find an advantage in it.

That day, I sat at my desk, watching as my male colleagues swarmed around our new coworker, Claire.
She was obviously attractive, so their reaction wasn’t surprising. But when Mark approached her, the others quickly backed off.
I let out a quiet chuckle as I watched. Mark was the most handsome and charismatic man in the office—I was convinced even other men wouldn’t mind if he took them to bed.

He flirted with Claire, and she giggled at his jokes, twirling a strand of her blonde hair around her finger.
At that moment, Anthony, my boss, approached me. “Sara, do you remember our new project?” he asked, glancing at the laptop screen in front of me.
“Yes, of course. I’m leading it,” I replied, adjusting my glasses.

“I’m counting on you,” Anthony said with a nod, his tone full of expectation.
I worked at an IT company, and we were launching a new dating app. Anthony had chosen me to lead the project because, no matter how unnoticeable I was, my work results were the best.
He had also offered me an opportunity to work abroad at one of our other branches, but I declined, even though the salary would have been much higher.

During lunch, I noticed an irritated Mark walking up to Anthony. Curious about what had upset our golden boy this time, I decided to eavesdrop.
“Who did you assign the dating app to?” Mark asked, his voice laced with disbelief.
“Sara. Is there a problem?” Anthony replied, sounding amused.
“Sara? We don’t have anyone by that name,” Mark scoffed, and I felt my jaw tighten.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“She’s sitting right over there,” Anthony said, pointing at me. I continued pretending not to hear them, keeping my eyes fixed on my screen.
“I thought I’d be handling the dating app. This isn’t fair,” Mark protested, folding his arms across his chest.
“To my office. Now,” Anthony ordered.
I finished my lunch just in time to see Mark walking out of Anthony’s office, looking pleased with himself.

I had no idea what they had discussed, but no one had told me I was off the project, so I remained calm, though a tiny seed of doubt had been planted in my mind.
The next day, Mark approached me with his signature smile, hovering over my desk like a shadow. I gave him a questioning look.
“Sonia…” he began, leaning in slightly.

“Sara,” I corrected him, not bothering to hide my irritation.
“Right. Sara.” He chuckled, as if amused by his own mistake. “Want to grab lunch together?” he asked, his voice dripping with casual charm.
“I already ate,” I replied flatly, typing away at my keyboard.
“Then how about a drink after work?” he suggested, tilting his head.

I turned to face him. “You didn’t even know my name a minute ago. I bet you didn’t even know I worked here,” I said, recalling his conversation with Anthony. “What’s this really about?”
“I just thought it’d be nice to hang out with a lovely colleague,” Mark said smoothly, flashing that infamous smirk that made other women melt.
I scoffed.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“Oh, come on. It’ll be fun,” he insisted, his persistence almost amusing.
“I have a lot of work,” I said, turning back to my computer.
Mark lingered for a moment before sighing and walking away, but I could feel his eyes on me for a few seconds longer than necessary.
As usual, I stayed late at the office. But when I finally looked up from my screen, I was surprised to see Mark still there. Normally, by the time I finished, the office was empty.

I stood up, gathered my things, and headed to the elevator. Mark did the same. He followed me, and the whole thing felt strange.
We stepped into the elevator, and it started moving. Then, suddenly, it stopped.
“What’s going on? Are we stuck?” I asked, pressing a few buttons.
“Looks like it,” Mark replied, stuffing his hands into his pockets.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
I pressed the emergency button and explained the situation. The response came: we’d have to wait about two hours.
Mark sighed and sat on the floor, stretching his legs out in front of him. After a moment, I did the same.
“So, tell me about yourself,” he said, tilting his head toward me.
“What?” I chuckled, raising an eyebrow.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“What’s funny?” he asked, looking genuinely confused.
“Come on, I’ve worked here for years, and most people don’t even know I exist. Why the sudden interest?” I asked, crossing my arms.
“I’m just curious,” he said, shrugging.
“Then why don’t you tell me about yourself?” I countered, narrowing my eyes.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“Oh, please. You probably know everything about me already,” Mark smirked. “Everyone does.”
That made me laugh again. “That confidence.”
“What? Is that a bad thing?” he asked, grinning.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“No, not if it’s real. But being invisible has given me an advantage—I notice things. And you, Mark, are nothing but an act. A performer trying to mask his insecurities with fake confidence. So what’s behind all of it? Daddy issues? Mommy didn’t pay attention to you?” I asked, leaning back against the wall.
“Oh, screw you,” he muttered, rolling his eyes.
We sat in silence for a while until Mark finally spoke again.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“My dad left us when I was three. My mom raised me alone. Then, when I was a teenager, he suddenly came back and tried to mold me into his perfect son. I guess I’m still trying to prove something to him,” he admitted, his voice quieter than usual.
“I get it,” I said, my voice softer now.
Mark looked at me curiously.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“My mom left us. My dad raised me alone. But she never came back. The last time I saw her, I was thirteen. She told me she was ashamed I was her daughter because, at my age, she had been way more popular,” I said, my throat tightening slightly at the memory.
“She’s an idiot,” Mark said, shaking his head. “I asked Anthony about you. You have the best results in the company. I thought I did. And you’re beautiful, even if your lack of confidence hides it.”
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“Guess everyone copes with trauma differently,” I said, managing a small smile.
“Guess so,” Mark replied.
Just then, the elevator started moving again. When we stepped out, Mark grabbed my wrist.
“How about that drink now?” he asked, his voice gentler than before.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“If you’re going to be the guy from the elevator, then fine. But if you’re putting the mask back on, I’ll pass,” I said, tilting my head slightly.
“I’ll try to be myself,” Mark promised.
And so, we went to a bar. Then the next day. And the next. Before I knew it, we were spending time together every day—even on weekends.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
I saw a different side of Mark. The real him. The one who was afraid of spiders and teared up when a dog died in a movie.
One evening, I couldn’t resist anymore—I kissed him. And the moment I did, I knew it was right. With him, I felt like myself.
One day at the office, I stood outside Anthony’s office and heard voices inside. I hadn’t planned to listen, but I couldn’t help it.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“I told you—I know how to win someone over,” Mark said.
“I didn’t think Sara would fall for it. But you win—the dating app project is yours,” Anthony replied.
“Thanks, but—” Mark started, but I wasn’t listening anymore.
I turned and rushed to the bathroom, locked the door, and leaned against it. My breath came in quick, uneven bursts. My hands shook. Tears slid down my face before I could stop them.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
He had lied. He had tricked me to take my job. Every moment we had spent together had been a performance. And I was the fool who believed it. Worse—I had started falling for him.
I forced myself to breathe. I couldn’t fall apart now. Not over him.
I wiped my face, fixed my makeup, and straightened my blazer. Then, I walked straight to Anthony’s office.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“Oh, Sara, I was just about to talk to you,” he said, looking up from his desk.
“I’d like to accept your offer to work abroad. If it’s still available,” I said, keeping my voice steady.
“It is. What changed your mind?” Anthony asked, raising an eyebrow.
“You were right—there are more opportunities for me there,” I said.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
He studied me for a moment. “When can you leave?”
“Tomorrow,” I replied.
“Tomorrow? Are you sure?”
I nodded. “Yes.”
“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements. You can take the rest of the day off to pack.”
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
I thanked him and walked out. My hands clenched around my bag. I saw Mark heading toward me.
I didn’t slow down. I grabbed my things and stepped into the elevator before he could reach me.
By morning, I was in a taxi headed to the airport. Music played in my headphones, drowning everything else out.

I watched the city blur past. Then, in my window, I saw Mark’s car pull up alongside mine.
He motioned for me to roll down the window. I ignored him. He honked. Annoyed, I lowered it.
“What? Are you here to tell me more lies?” I shouted.
“What are you talking about?” he asked.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“I know about your deal with Anthony. If I fell for you, you’d get the dating app project,” I said.
“No—I mean, yes, that was the deal. But not anymore. Everything changed when I started spending time with you,” Mark said.
“More lies! I can’t believe I fell for you, that I even started to have feelings for you!” I yelled.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“Really?” Mark asked.
I just rolled up the window and turned away.
A second later, he swerved his car in front of mine, blocking the road. My taxi and other cars behind us came to a halt, their horns blaring in frustration.

It was chaos. Mark hurried over, pulled open my door, and looked at me desperately.
“Listen to me,” he said. “I turned down the dating app project.”
“Don’t lie,” I said, stepping out of the taxi.
“I’m not lying. It’s the truth,” he insisted. “Please, don’t go.”
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
“And why is that?” I asked.
“Because you’re the only person I can be real with. The only one I don’t have to pretend around,” Mark said. “That’s why I won’t let you get on that damn plane.”
“No one asked for your opinion,” I said.
“I’m falling for you too, Sara. Please,” he begged.
For illustration purposes only. | Source: Midjourney
My mind screamed at me to get back in the taxi, go to the airport, and forget Mark.
But my heart had already decided. My feet moved before I could stop them, bringing me closer to him. He pulled me into his arms and kissed me.
“I see you, Sara. And I will never let you feel invisible again,” Mark whispered before kissing me again.
