My neighbor pelted my car with eggs because he claimed it obstructed the view of his Halloween decorations

When sleep-deprived mom Genevieve discovers her car covered in eggs, she thinks it’s a prank — until her smug neighbor Brad admits he did it because her car was ruining the view of his elaborate Halloween display. Furious but too exhausted to argue, Genevieve vows to teach him a lesson.

I was bone-tired, the kind of tired where you can barely remember if you’ve brushed your teeth or fed the dog.

My days had become a blur since the twins were born.

Don’t get me wrong, Lily and Lucas were my adorable darlings, but wrangling two newborns mostly by myself was a Herculean task. I hadn’t slept a full night in months. Halloween was just around the corner and the neighborhood buzzed with excitement, but not me.

I could hardly muster the energy to decorate, let alone keep up with the suburban festivities.


Then there was Brad.

The man took Halloween so seriously that you’d think his life depended on it. Every year, he turned his house into a haunted carnival complete with gravestones, dioramas of skeletons, huge jack-o’-lanterns, the works.

And the smug look on his face every time someone complimented him? Please.

His spectacle enamored the entire block. But me? I was too busy trying to keep my eyes open to care about Brad’s ridiculous haunted house.

It was a typical October morning when everything started to unravel.

I shuffled outside with Lily on one hip and Lucas cradled in my arm. I blinked at the sight before me. Somebody had egged my car! Broken bits of shell were stuck in the semi-congealed goo, which was dripping down the windshield like some twisted breakfast special.

“Are you kidding me?” I muttered, staring at the mess.

I had parked in front of Brad’s house the night before. It’s not like I had much choice. The twins’ stroller was impossible to push all the way from down the street, so I’d parked close to our door.

At first, I thought it had to be a prank. But when I noticed the egg splatters reached all the way to Brad’s front porch, my suspicion turned into certainty.

This had Brad written all over it.

Bride Demands Her Bridesmaids Pay for Their Dresses She Bought for the Ceremony

We weren’t expecting a financial shock when my closest friend Emily asked us to be her bridesmaids; instead, we expected a happy day. Karma suddenly stepped in during the drama, putting our friendship to the test and making the wedding one to remember. Excitement was in the air in the bridal suite as Emily, the soon-to-be bride, fluttered around verifying specifics. She distributed exquisite bridesmaid dresses, each one a work of art with delicate lacework and pastel hues.

We were all thrilled by Emily’s dazzling smile as she saw James at the altar during the lovely outdoor ceremony. Even the pragmatic me started crying at the sincere promises. There was music and laughter throughout the event. Emily revealed something shocking to us at a private moment: she wanted us to pay her back $1,200 for each of the gowns. We hadn’t budgeted for this, which shocked me. A towering wedding cake that had been misordered at fifty kilograms came and caused a ruckus before we could reply. When Emily saw the enormous cake bill, she became anxious. As her bridesmaids, we spoke up and reassured her that genuine friendship isn’t based on financial gain.

We combined our resources to cover the cake, making the incident one to remember. Previous issues vanished as Emily and James danced together for the first time. The day, which was full of chaos and love, gave us insightful lessons about the power of friendship, humility, and giving. Notwithstanding flaws, the event turned into a treasured remembrance of unbreakable ties.
