When I was 16 or 17, I was in a Walgreens the week of Valentine’s Day. I literally think I was picking up deodorant. Anyway, the woman an aisle over, and a good ten years older than me, was talking to her friend about her recent breakup and that she had no Valentine’s Day plans.
So, I went to the Hallmark aisle, grabbed two Snoopy cards and a box of those disgusting sweethearts candies. Wrote “His loss. Happy Valentine’s Day! -from the cute boy in aisle 5” Sealed it up. Gave the cashier the unsealed card to ring up and keep. Then asked her to give the sealed card and candy to the beautiful brunette in the leather jacket and then left.
I still think about that woman every Valentine’s Day. Hope she is doing well.
This is so damn adorable. I bet she thinks about you too.
