A week later, he and his new wife moved in without asking. She immediately began redecorating\u2014throwing out my things, rearranging rooms, and replacing items without permission. When she tossed my favorite sofa and vintage desk, I\u2019d had enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of fighting, I decided to make her uncomfortable. Whenever my dad was gone, I quietly undid her changes\u2014moving furniture, shifting decorations, and placing my grandmother\u2019s belongings around the house to unsettle her. Eventually, she started complaining that things felt \u201coff.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One night, while she was decorating, I walked past wearing my grandmother\u2019s shawl. She saw me, thought she\u2019d seen a ghost, and panicked.
