Warning
He thought it was too silly of him to try to get in touch with Vicki after all these years when she must be busy in her life. He knew that she might not even remember him anymore and that’s when his wife warned him. She told him that it’s not just about him and Vicki anymore, she too wanted to know what was wrapped inside. So, Adrian dialed a few more wrong numbers.
One Call Away
“I was almost shaking I was so nervous,” recalled Adrian. He called twice but no one answered and he thought maybe it’s just another wrong number. But third time is always a charm and with this thought, he called the third time and she answered. The question was if this was the Vicki he was looking for?
In Luck
It was her and Adrian couldn’t believe that he was finally talking to the girl whose present he has kept with him for over 47 years. They talked about how life has been over the phone and soon Adrian told her about the present. She was surprised to know that Adrian was still holding on to the gift when she didn’t even remember about the gift!
A Solid Plan
Vicki and Adrian planned to finally open the present at the Christmas Bureau of Edmonton. The Bureau works for families in need. They wanted to connect as many people as possible with the cause. As Vicki herself didn’t remember what was inside the gift, it was going to be a tricky situation. Wondering how?
A Poor Memory
When they finally met and Vicki was about to open the 48 years old gift something shocked her. She said, “Oh no! I can’t give that to him!”Adrian and his wife were looking at her and every person inside that packed cafe northwest of the city looked at her. They thought she was just trying to create a suspense scene but that wasn’t it.
