Neighbor Took Our Package, Used the Contents, and Wanted Us to Pay for the Scraps — Karma Made Him Pay Twice as Much

Our living room renovation took an unexpected turn when our expensive, eco-friendly paint vanished, only to be found in the hands of our opportunistic neighbor, Mr. Jenkins. Little did he know, karma had plans for him.

The trouble began when our paint, scheduled for delivery, mysteriously went missing. After contacting the delivery company, we were told, “Our records show it was delivered this morning.” Confused, we asked our neighbors, but no one had seen it. The mystery was solved days later when we received a postcard from Mr. Jenkins: “Extra premium eco-friendly paint for sale…used some, selling the rest at a generous discount.”

I confronted Mr. Jenkins, but he smugly replied, “If you want the rest, you’ll have to pay for it.” Frustrated, we couldn’t prove the paint was ours and decided to walk away.

Weeks later, Mr. Jenkins began proudly showing off his newly painted living room, but his triumph was short-lived. The paint began peeling off because he hadn’t prepped the walls properly, forcing him to hire a professional to redo the job. The cost of his mistake doubled his expenses.

As the neighborhood buzzed with talk of his misfortune, I couldn’t help but smile. Mr. Jenkins had learned a valuable lesson: sometimes, karma ensures that you truly reap what you sow.
