The final story centers around two women who had been friends for a while. One woman admitted she was financially comfortable and fortunate enough to afford most things she wanted. On the other hand, her friend Acie was experiencing some financial woes.
Although Acie’s family was financially stable, they cut off Acie despite her being an only child as she had an expensive taste and entirely relied on her parents. After this, the woman began paying whenever she and Acie went out together. Acie told the woman she wanted to try a fine-dining restaurant.
The woman agreed as Acie had bragged about how much money she had received from her family during a cultural festival. The woman assumed they would split the bill. When the bill arrived, Acie looked at her friend, expecting her to pay.
Previously, she would ask the woman to pay for her, but she had become so used to that that she now didn’t even ask. The woman asked her what had happened to all the money she had received as gifts during the festival, and Acie said she was saving up to buy a gold necklace. When the woman told Acie that she wanted to split the bill, Acie said she was stuck up.
Acie expected the OP to cover the entire bill since she was rich. The woman was astonished. She put cash worth half the bill on the table and then left, later learning that Acie’s dad had to come to the restaurant to pay for his daughter.
