The Shrine – Update

(See my post from a few days ago: "The Shrine")

“The Shrine” stayed there for around a day-and-a-half. Then the neighbor came home from wherever she’d been  and promptly removed it all.

So apparently she is currently not wanting anything to do with this guy. And, at least for now he is an ex. But from what little I’ve seen of her interactions that could change in the future. She has friends or “friends” who are around a lot for some relatively brief period of time, then they disappear, to return again a few weeks or months later.

Anyway, he’s bothering her now. Perhaps it’s that he’s offering a negative critique about her life choices, which she doesn’t want to hear? Well, he came by on a bicycle this evening to try to have a talk with her, I suppose. She called the police.

Now, I’ve never called the police. And except for one night when I was in college, when I had a party that briefly spilled into a campus parking lot across the street where a bunch of firecrackers were set off. And I don’t even know for sure if someone called the campus police, or if maybe they just happened by.

Well, the police came to talk to the neighbor, and the ex had left by then. I overheard bits of this, as I was outside reading. She complained about him coming by and calling her, etc. They told her not to let him in nor to talk to him. And if he did show up again, let them know. I think she may have given them his name and phone number or some other information about him.

I hope that means he won’t be back knocking on my door, trying to be buddy-buddy with me.
