Dad turns salty when the ‘fruit fairy’ next door builds a net around their guava tree: ‘I said he could buy some [fruit] off me if he wanted’

Humans like to delineate their property. For lack of better reasoning, it's simply because we don't trust our neighbors not to encroach on our space, take our stuff, or assume our property–it's not pretty, but it's human nature! And especially when your business and livelihood is derived from your lands, it's hard not to get a little overprotective of your things. 

In our next story, a guy gets a little tight-fisted over something that wasn't his in the first place when his neighbor draws a hard line in the sand. After years of living next door to a fruitful guava tree, the guy got used to having the 'fruit fairy' drop delicious tropical delights over the side of the fence, but when the neighbor started a business selling the fruits, he (rightfully) built a net to catch all the wayward fruits that would fall from the tree. 

Although it may seem petty to some that the guava man was unwilling to share the fruits of his labor, you can be the judge on who is entitled to the tumbling spoils of an ancient tropical tree.
