He said sell your silver

Some time ago I had some financial problems. I live alone and when I had lost my job I thought that I could use some help from my brother. Our parents died few years ago and since then we have always been very helpful to each other. Anyway I had no savings and I need to pay the rent. I decided to visit my brother whom I always helped when he needed it. But when I told him about my financial problems he said only one thing: sell your silver. I was shocked. I did not expected that he would ever say such an awful thing. I got some silver from my mother when she was still alive and it was my precious keepsake and now he wanted me to sell it. He was always kind of jealous that he did not get anything precious from our parents and he simply wanted to show me how he felt about it. When I said that I will not sell this silver because it was a heirloom and that it should stay in our family. Then he said something even more awful: sell your silver to me. I could not stand it and I left his house with no word. I must take to consider getting a loan and I am sure of one thing. I do not want to have anything in common with my brother. I did not know that he would be such a monster. I always helped him and he just turn his back on me when he said that I should sell the heirloom instead of helping me.
