For our 10th wedding anniversary, I surprised my husband with his dream watch. He gave me what looked like cheap perfume in a plastic bottle — and I was hurt. I never used it.
Three weeks later, he passed away unexpectedly. Suddenly, that anniversary became our last celebration. The regret was overwhelming. I replayed that night again and again, wishing I had focused on love instead of disappointment.
Today, while cleaning, the perfume bottle fell and broke open. Inside was a folded handwritten note:
“I know this perfume is temporary, but next month I’ll surprise you with the necklace you’ve been dreaming about. Thank you for believing in me. You are my forever gift.”
Sometimes, the smallest gifts carry the biggest love. Cherish every moment. 💔✨
