A man heard his wife crying inside their bedroom with the door locked. He asked her to open the door and tell her what happened. When she told her what made her cry, he barged into the kitchen and blew up at his 16-year-old nieces.
When a man heard his wife crying, he implored her to tell him what was wrong. His wife had been undergoing chemotherapy after the doctors declared she had cancer. The side effects of the therapy made her lose her beautiful hair.
She felt insecure facing people with her bald head, so she wore a wig to feel more comfortable. One day, she woke up and couldn’t find her wig.
The man chose to stay anonymous while narrating the incident in the “AITA” forum on Reddit. He wanted to ask other users if he was at fault in this situation.
His wife was battling cancer and lost her hair because of chemotherapy. Like most women, she was not confident going out in public with a bald head.
Since she knew her hair wouldn’t grow back anytime soon, she decided to buy a wig that resembled her natural hair. Her husband supported the idea and encouraged her to wear it.
On the other hand, the man’s sister was going through a difficult phase in her life. Following her divorce, she didn’t have a place to live. She asked her brother if she could live in his home with her twin daughters.
“What happened? Why are you crying?” he asked while holding her by her arms.
The man had no reason to refuse, so he allowed his sister and nieces to move in with him. He had no idea what would happen in the days to come.
After they moved in, the man’s nieces were drawn to his wife’s wig. They wanted to touch it and wear it, and they asked her why she wore it. The girls also asked the woman if they could straighten it and see what happened. Since she didn’t feel comfortable without her wig, the woman refused to take it off in front of them.
A few days later, the man came home from work and heard his wife wailing from their bedroom. He turned the metallic doorknob and pushed the door, but it wouldn’t open.
After calling his wife’s name multiple times, she got up from the bed and unlocked the door. “What happened? Why are you crying?” he asked while holding her by her arms.
“They took away my wig!” the woman cried, pointing towards the door.
Upon further questioning, he discovered that his nieces had taken his wife’s wig and didn’t want to return it to her until she came out of her room without a wig. When she asked them to return it, they refused and pulled out their phone to take a video of her.
