Daughter’s Car

I have a feeling my daughter has been lending her car out to this really horrible friend of hers. Her best friend is a crude and rude girl who can’t get her life together and takes advantage of my daughter. The most recent example of this is the last time I went to visit my daughter. It seemed like she was trying to hide her car from me. Then there was this one day when she was missing from her apartment for a couple of hours. When she came back she was suddenly all in the mood to take me for a cruise. 

Despite not living in the same state as my daughter for the last ten years, I can read her adorable face just like I could when she was five. She may be intelligent, but she is also the world’s worst liar. The car was a gift that I gave her, so I know she’s trying her hardest to take care of it. Before giving the car to her I arranged for a car servicing mechanic near Bentleigh to take a look at the car and ensure it would be in the best possible condition. My daughter has done a great job of taking care of said car. Her friend on the other hand? Trouble. I have a sneaking suspicion she did some damage to the brakes. I’m not working as a detective for no reason. I could see how hesitant my daughter was every time she pressed her foot down. 

I knew there was nothing wrong with her brakes until recently because just before I gifted her the car, I made sure it had a brake repair. Close to Moorabbin, there is a great brake repair mechanic and I made sure he did the job. There was no reason for her brakes to be damaged so soon. Besides, my daughter drives with care. There’s no doubt in my mind that her friend caused this as she seemed very distant when speaking about said friend. It takes a lot to get my daughter upset, and I could tell there was something wrong.
