D* is saying that he let you borrow to take a picture for it. That's fine, but please return it.

Regariding your made-up story about the class, I was the one who enrolled D* to Tuesday After school enrichment class at Deepwood. Tuesday is not your day, and I specifically remember those classes because Dimtris got sick two Tuesdays, so Ms. T was kindly giving one makeup lesson for D*.
I've paid 25 dollars for three hour session. I even have the returned check for it. Please do not lie about this. D* now can read and understand what's going on...
You really need to work on how to become a gentleman.
Please return the painting.. I feel violated and unfair.
You can let him paint during your summer time and keep the painting by yourself.

Thanks.

D* gave me the painting when we were looking at it today -in
addition it was me who dropped him at the class, and it is my money
which paid for the class. As you know, if I pick a course, you don't
take him. BTW It wasn't very nice that you put D* in the middle
of this and had him call.

Anyway, how about this, why don't you call off the stuff war you have
been waging, and let D* decide for himself about where he wants
to take his things? I.e. give him the freedom to chose. Accordingly,
if he decides to ask for it back, we will discuss it. Though, I think a
better lesson would be to teach him that a gift given is given. Also,
Why don't you show some respect for my feelings and property?

There are few items which you might return to signify a change: 1) the
boots that are part of the suit D* wore to his Great
Grandmother's funeral which you have refused to return after picking
them up at school. You might also reimburse me for some new ones, as
they propably don't fit now. 2) The T shirt which matches mine from
the Rail Trip D* and I took on the steam engine. You have held
this steadfastly for even longer. 3) The pulley and weights set. 4) My
framed college diploma. Surely you haven't claimed that for your own?
I graduated long before the marriage.

This is not a complete list, nor would it make amends or even be fair,
but it might be indicative of a better attitude.

Up to you.
