Brian had enjoyed years of peace in his quiet neighborhood until a new neighbor, Tim, moved in. At first, things seemed friendly, and Brian welcomed him warmly. However, their relationship quickly changed when Tim asked to use Brian’s driveway during renovations. Brian politely declined, explaining it was always in use by his family.
Ignoring the refusal, Tim began parking his truck there anyway, disrupting Brian’s household. Despite multiple requests to stop, Tim continued, dismissing it as no big deal. The situation worsened until one morning, Brian discovered a message spray-painted on his lawn—an act that crossed the line.
Instead of retaliating with anger, Brian came up with a clever solution. He contacted his brother, a landscaper, and together they replaced the lawn with new grass and a surprise—an underground sprinkler system that sprayed a harmless blue dye when triggered.
The next day, Tim unknowingly walked across the lawn and was soaked in bright blue dye. When he complained, Brian simply replied, “It’s just water.” Since then, Tim has kept his distance, and Brian’s quiet neighborhood returned to the peaceful place it once was.
