He Couldn’t Believe It
Adam couldn’t believe his eyes as he stared out over his yard. A strong smell hung in the air, burning the small crowd of people’s eyes as they stared. He didn’t know what to say.
They were all staring at him, bewildered by the sight before them. Adam felt rage bubbling deep within him, he couldn’t believe what his neighbor had done. Looking into the distance, he saw the blue lights approaching.
A Frantic Call
Adam was hard at work when he first received a frantic call from his wife, asking him to come home immediately. At first, he said that he couldn’t, but that all changed when she told him what was going on.
Adam left work immediately, not even bothering to tell his boss where he was going. He had serious business to attend to.
Driving Home
The drive home felt like it lasted a lifetime. For the entire time, Adam sat quietly, trying to remain calm. But his blood was boiling. He couldn’t believe what had happened.
He asked his neighbor to mind his own business for weeks, but he didn’t listen. Now, everything was destroyed. When he finally reached his street, he noticed the large crowd in front of his lawn.
They Were Staring
When he pulled into his driveway, all eyes were on him. Adam had to take a deep breath before he stepped out of his car. He was furious. Why couldn’t they just mind their own business?
He sighed and removed his keys from the ignition. But just as he opened the door, the smell hit him. He had to stop himself from gagging right then and there.
His Neighbor
Stepping out of his car, he could see his neighbor, John, standing in the middle of his yard. He couldn’t believe the carnage his neighbor had left for him. But things were about to get a lot worse.
The second he stepped out of his car, his wife rushed out of the house to join his side. Neither of them could believe the sight before them.
A Cut
She Stopped Him
“I was in the kitchen when he did it,” His wife told him, “I didn’t notice until it was too late.” John was covered in the substance as he angrily glared at Adam.
If he had listened to him, then none of this would have happened. Adam wanted to storm over there and confront him, but his wife’s words stopped him. “He called the police on us,” She said.
Their Neighborhood
Adam Murphy lived a simple life with his wife, Georgia, in Orlando, Florida. They lived in a beautiful neighborhood and were lucky enough to have great neighbors among them.
But there was one neighbor who Adam couldn’t seem to get along with. His name was John, and he was always involving himself in the couple’s business.
A New Complaint
But in recent weeks, John had found something new to complain about. It was in the middle of fall, and one large tree in Adam’s yard had been causing some trouble. As they ventured deeper into the fall, the tree began to make quite a mess.
Leaves and branches scattered Adam’s yard, and unfortunately, some had even reached John’s yard.
A Mess
As time went on and the situation worsened, John grew tired of sweeping up the mess in his yard. He threatened to cut the tree down more than once, but Adam continuously warned him to stay away.
The truth is that Adam had also grown tired of the maintenance, but he’d discovered something truly strange about the tree. It prevented him from cutting it down immediately.
A Decent Man
It was a Saturday morning, and Adam had just gotten home from a morning run. John was in his yard, staring at the tree with a sour expression on his face. Adam, being a decent man, decided to wave in his direction.
But John’s response wasn’t as kind. “If you don’t get rid of this tree any time soon, I’ll come into your yard and cut it myself,” John called.
A Threat
Adam chuckled and shook his head. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you, John. You never know what might be inside,” He said before heading into his home.
Adam had been wanting to get rid of the tree, but he knew that he would have to get professionals in to deal with that problem.
Bluffing
He never thought that his nasty neighbor, John, would go through with his threats. Adam had tried cutting down the tree, but he was horrified to find a strange substance inside.
He knew that this was not one man’s job. He would need professionals in protective gear to handle the job. John was unaware of this fact, but he would soon learn a costly lesson.
An Unexpected Event
But that week, something truly unexpected happened. It was Monday, just before noon when Adam received a call from his wife. He was in the middle of a meeting and ignored the call.
But when Georgia called again and again, he knew he had to answer. Something was seriously wrong, it seemed.
The Call
It was a frantic call from his wife, asking him to come home immediately. At first, he said that he couldn’t, but that all changed when she told him what was going on.
Adam left work immediately, not even bothering to tell his boss where he was going. He had serious business to attend to.
