After my billionaire husband died, the way his two sons looked at me started to get… strange.I was terrified they were about to throw me out on the street, and I spent my days walking on eggshells. One night, I logged onto Reddit and anonymously posted in a support forum:
[Help! My wealthy husband suddenly died, but his sons seem to hate me. What should I do?]
Some kind strangers replied:
[Have they actually said they hate you?]
I tried to think back.
[Well, no… but the way they look at me is terrifying. Like they want to eat me alive TT_TT]
Then, a reply from a mysterious user popped up:
[Don’t worry. Just get a few boxes tonight and smooth things over.]
A few boxes? Of what?
I stared at the sentence, turning it over and over in my mind.
That evening, my arms shaking, I brought home six boxes of Teddy Grahams.

Now, don't underestimate the power of six boxes of Teddy Grahams.
From what I could gather, both Marcus and Leo Covington had a sweet tooth. I’d spent the entire afternoon driving to three different gourmet markets to find these six limited-edition flavors. My legs felt like jelly.
I carefully arranged the cookie boxes inside a decorative gift box, tied it with a satin ribbon, and placed it in the most conspicuous spot on the living room coffee table. I even added a handwritten note: “You’ve both been through so much lately. Just a little something I love, and I hope you will too. For Marcus and Leo. ^_^”
As a little preview, I posted an Instagram story for my “Close Friends” list—which now consisted of only the two of them: [Six boxes. Plenty to go around. First come, first served!]
I didn’t include a picture, of course.
The magic of a surprise is in the unwrapping, isn't it?
I stood back, admiring my handiwork, and couldn't help but anticipate the looks on their faces.
