When sleep-deprived mom Genevieve discovers her car covered in eggs, she thinks it’s a prank — until her smug neighbor Brad admits he did it because her car was ruining the view of his elaborate Halloween display. Furious but too exhausted to argue, Genevieve vows to teach him a lesson.
I was bone-tired, the kind of tired where you can barely remember if you’ve brushed your teeth or fed the dog.
My days had become a blur since the twins were born.
Don’t get me wrong, Lily and Lucas were my adorable darlings, but wrangling two newborns mostly by myself was a Herculean task. I hadn’t slept a full night in months. Halloween was just around the corner and the neighborhood buzzed with excitement, but not me.
I could hardly muster the energy to decorate, let alone keep up with the suburban festivities.
Then there was Brad.
The man took Halloween so seriously that you’d think his life depended on it. Every year, he turned his house into a haunted carnival complete with gravestones, dioramas of skeletons, huge jack-o’-lanterns, the works.
And the smug look on his face every time someone complimented him? Please.
His spectacle enamored the entire block. But me? I was too busy trying to keep my eyes open to care about Brad’s ridiculous haunted house.
It was a typical October morning when everything started to unravel.
I shuffled outside with Lily on one hip and Lucas cradled in my arm. I blinked at the sight before me. Somebody had egged my car! Broken bits of shell were stuck in the semi-congealed goo, which was dripping down the windshield like some twisted breakfast special.
“Are you kidding me?” I muttered, staring at the mess.
I had parked in front of Brad’s house the night before. It’s not like I had much choice. The twins’ stroller was impossible to push all the way from down the street, so I’d parked close to our door.
At first, I thought it had to be a prank. But when I noticed the egg splatters reached all the way to Brad’s front porch, my suspicion turned into certainty.
This had Brad written all over it.
Brown-Eyed Woman One Direction Idol Liam Payne Called ‘Wife’ & Mother of His Son — Pics of His Ex, 10 Years His Senior

Liam Payne’s journey from boyband fame with One Direction to fatherhood and relationships was filled with highs and lows. One significant relationship in his life was with Cheryl Cole, a British singer ten years his senior, with whom he shares a son named Bear. The couple met in 2010 on *The X Factor*, but their romance didn’t begin until 2016. Despite their age difference sparking attention, they appeared happy and shared a deep bond. Payne even referred to Cole as his “wife” in several interviews, though it was never confirmed that they married.
In 2017, the couple welcomed their son, Bear, into the world, with Payne expressing his joy over fatherhood. Though Payne and Cole eventually separated in 2018, they remained dedicated to co-parenting Bear. Payne often praised Cole, calling her “literally the best person to co-parent with,” describing their dynamic as relaxed and harmonious.
Despite the split, Payne remained a devoted father, ensuring that he maintained a close relationship with his son. He made it a priority to spend quality time with Bear, visiting him multiple times a week and engaging in regular video calls to stay connected when they were apart.
Tragically, Payne’s life was cut short in 2024 following an accident in Buenos Aires. His passing sent shockwaves through the entertainment world, leaving behind a legacy of music, fatherhood, and cherished memories shared with his fans and loved ones.
