The Clothes I Gave Away Came Back Wi

After offering a free bundle of Reina’s old clothes, the narrator received a message from Nura, a struggling mother who asked if the box could be mailed.

The narrator sent it without expecting anything.

A year later, a package arrived containing the same clothes and a note:

“You helped me when I had no one. I wanted to return what I could.”

Inside was also a crocheted duck the narrator thought she had lost.

Nura wrote, “This duck sat on my daughter’s nightstand. She said it kept the bad dreams away… I think it’s time it comes home.”

That note led to a phone call, then a friendship that grew through shared struggles, visits, and support.

When the narrator hit financial trouble, Nura helped without hesitation.

Their families became intertwined, strengthened by small acts of kindness and an open invitation: “If you ever want to talk. Or visit. Door’s open.”
