After the car accident, everyone survived 🌸. One woman was taken to hospital with internal injuries and needed surgery. She ended up in a quiet room, recovering, mostly alone 💜.
A young man — maybe nineteen or twenty — was in the hospital visiting his mum. On his way out, he passed the woman’s room. She looked up. He waved. She waved back 🦋. Something in that moment made him stop. She smiled and gently motioned for him to come in. He sat down… and just like that, they started talking. About nothing. About everything. As if they’d known each other forever ✨. No awkwardness. No explanations. Just ease. Her name was Marjorie — that was all he knew.
The next day, he came back to see his mum and told her about the old lady he’d met. His mum smiled and said Marjorie was still there — he should go say hello again 😊. He did. And once again, the same feeling. Words flowed. Time disappeared. Young man and old woman, sharing stories, laughter, quiet understanding 🌷.
When he came back the following day, Marjorie had been discharged. He felt a surprising sadness settle in his chest. He wished he could have known her longer — helped her, checked in on her, mowed her lawn, anything. But the hospital couldn’t give him her details, and that was that 💔.
Six months later, walking out of a coffee shop, he bumped straight into her ☕✨. Marjorie. From that day on, they were inseparable. He became her helper, her companion — mowing her lawn, collecting parcels, being there when she needed someone. And she became his adopted grandmother 💕.
Not by blood.
By kindness.
