My neighbor, an elderly woman in her 80s, accused me of stalking her adult son, who is between 35 – 40 years old. She didn’t speak to me face-to-face, but talked loudly from her house, which is a semi-detached next to mine.
She started her tirade from around 2 am, and continued well into daybreak, at 7 am. Five hours. The gist of her rant was that she accused me of stalking her son. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. She was angry that I didn’t seek her permission to fancy her son. She said no woman could court her son without her explicit approval.
In my defence, I say that I have never spoken to her son face-to-face, nor have I stalked him from the boundaries of my house.
