"Was it really such a big deal that it was a bit noisy when he lived here before? I mean, he's dead now, but he's still not letting our family go! Everyone living in apartment buildings has some noise between upstairs and downstairs; if you have kids who love to run and jump, who's able to control them?"
The speaker was the female head of the household. They had two kids, both around three or four years old—the prime age for running around. As she brought this up, she still felt wronged.
"He came to our house several times before, even complained to the property management about us, but I didn't hold it against him! I even told him that if he couldn't tolerate the noise, he could move to a villa. There would be no noise there, right?"
When the woman said this, her voice was lower as if she was afraid something might overhear. Admittedly, when she'd said it to the man earlier, her tone had been much more unapologetic.
