Chapter 2: Forty-Eight Hours

Part 2 ⬇️

I was watching through my curtains when Paul started screaming.

He was staring at his porch like he couldn't believe his own eyes.

I had spent the afternoon calling every sprinkler company in the area — and saved every single receipt and estimate.

The total damage Paul had caused?

$340.

So I had placed it all on his porch.

Every quote.

Every photo I'd taken that morning.

And one handwritten note on top:

*"This is what you owe me.

I have it all documented.

You have 48 hours."*

Paul snatched up the papers and stormed toward my door.

He pounded on it so hard my kids came running.

"You think this is funny?!

You're threatening ME?!"

I opened the door calmly and said:

"I'm not threatening you, Paul.

I'm giving you the chance to make it right before I take the next step."

He laughed in my face.

"Next step?

You're a single mom with two kids.

What exactly are you going to do?"

I didn't answer.

But behind me, my phone was already recording — and on the screen was a name I hadn't mentioned to Paul yet.

Someone who had been watching him for a long time.

Someone with a lot more power than either of us.

What Paul didn't know was about to cost him far more than $340.
