My former landlord has been the wicked one ever. Although, he pretended to be good at some point, but the daughter made some words that gave this man the mind to say some words he was supposed not to say.
We have been together in the same compound, but the landlord was living with his other family in his other house. He has about four houses in his area. Her daughter now serves as an information carrier and always carries fake information just to send me and my husband out of the compound. The more she tried, the more me and my husband kept doing the right thing. I don't know what she would gain after sending us packing from their compound.

In the compound, there was a big tree which was exactly at the front of my yard. I have been the one taking care of the compound by sweeping. Most time, my husband would wake up as early as possible just to sweep the leaves. In the afternoon, I would also pick up the broom and sweep the leaves as well as the surrounding. I do extend my sweeping to her side not for anything but just for the sake of love. My husband also does the same.
One day, her dad had to call my husband and tell him that we were not taking care of the compound. This left my husband mute, although after a few seconds, my husband opened up to him that we always keep the compound as clean as anything else. I was also sad after hearing this statement, but then I knew it was the handiwork of her daughter. We did not say a word, but just kept doing what we had to do. This lady will always pretend to love you, but what is in her mind was beyond what one would perfectly think.
Meanwhile, the second wife of my landlord was from the same State as us. She came around one day and told us how her stepdaughter has been coming to judge matters related to us that are not worth it. She was the one who revealed how her stepdaughter has been taking our issues to her husband to judge. After that day, I began to be careful of my landlord's daughter. My husband only told me not to reveal my anger to her. He said I should always behave well with her and that soon we will pack out of the compound. So, I began to behave just as if I did not hear anything
Her first daughter happened to be in her secondary school age. She was writing her final year exams in the college, preparing to proceed to the university.
Her daughter always comes to my husband for lessons. My husband, on the other hand, does not refuse anyone who comes to have lessons with him, being a good teacher. My husband had taken them as family and had treated them as one. On a normal level, my husband would have vented anger on this lady's daughter, but he was not that type of person.
When she finally proceeded to the university, she rented an apartment right there, as she refused to stay in the campus hostels just because of fear. Meanwhile, after a few months, we finally got another place which we packed too just to avoid the woman's problem.
Some weeks later, I went to the general market to purchase some items. I saw this woman and we both greeted each other nicely. I asked of her daughter who was in school, but then she turned out to be telling me how her daughter was faring right there in her school.
She said, “my daughter's landlord has been a threat to her. He's making me to think that she would leave that environment. The landlord has been complaining about what my daughter did not do. Maybe someone has been feeding the landlord with fake information, who knows”. As she was talking, I was just saying within me that “that's Karma in action”.
I only told her that “it's well. Just tell her to do what she was supposed to do”.
She replied to me that "I have been there and had seen things by myself. I knew the landlord is not the kind type as well as those around the compound.
“It is well”, this was what I used to end my statement.
