My Neighbor Would Leave Thoughtful Packages at My Doorstep — When I Opened the Last One, I Knew I Had to Call the Police
One morning, I found yellow daisies wrapped in brown paper outside my door with a note: “Just a little something to brighten your day. – Sophie.” Sophie, my friendly but distant neighbor, continued leaving thoughtful gifts, like cookies, candles, and chocolates, each with a note signed the same way.
Then, I found a hidden message in the chocolates: “Check the notes in every package.” The messages led to a chilling discovery—Sophie was hiding from someone dangerous. After hearing knocks on the wall between our apartments, I called the police.
They arrested a man from Sophie’s past—her ex-boyfriend, a violent criminal. Sophie was in witness protection and had been sending gifts as a silent plea for help. She disappeared the next day, leaving no trace.
Weeks later, I received a copper bracelet she once wore, a reminder that, even from the shadows, she hadn’t forgotten me.
