My Neighbor Drove over My Lawn Every Day as a Shortcut to Her Yard

After her divorce, Hayley pours her heart into the perfect lawn, until

her entitled neighbor starts driving over it like it’s a shortcut to nowhere.

What begins as a petty turf war turns into something deeper: a fierce, funny,

and satisfying reclamation of bondaries, dignity, and self-worth.

After my divorce, I didn’t just want a fresh start. I needed it.

That’s how I ended up in a quiet cul-de-sac in a different state,

in a house with a white porch swing and a lawn I could call my own.

I poured my heartbreak into that yard. I planted roses from my late grandma’s clippings.

I lined the walkways with solar lights that flickered to life like fireflies.

I mowed every Saturday, named my mower “Benny,” and drank sweet tea on the steps like I’d been doing it my whole life.

I was 30, newly single, and desperate for peace.

Then came Sabrina.
