Though her neighbours are staunch Christians by faith, they are also firm believers in Feng Shui. Hey! Even quite a number of Muslims practice Feng Shui since it is an environmental science and not a religion. Coming back to the story. You might be wondering why Aunt Linda's neighbours were upset by the planting of the 3 coconut trees right in front of their house, right? You see, it is believed that if there are three blocking the main entrance to ones residence, it is something like placing three big joss-sticks on the altar as a sign of respect for the dead. So, it is like wishing that death would befall the occupants of the house.
The above picture shows the plot of land directly opposite the neighbour's house. Where are the coconut trees that I was talking about? Quickly removed by the neighbours, of course.
