Their Wastewater Came Back to Them

Neighbor Wayne, to save money, didn't install sewers. Relying on his higher foundation, he drained all wastewater to Zara's parents' doorstep. The stinking water causedZara's mother to slip and fracture a bone. The Wang family refused medical fees, citing water flows downhill. Zara, a city executive, didn't argue—she funded village roads and drainage. Upon completion, the Wang family became the lowest point. When rain came, sewage flooded back. The wicked reaped what they sowed.
