My husband gave me a shower gel for my birthday. At first, I was really offended. We weren’t struggling financially, so I couldn’t understand why he would choose such a simple gift. I even checked to make sure his company was doing well and that we had enough money in our bank account. He could have at least bought me a bunch of flowers.
When I looked closely at the shower gel, I noticed it was a fragrance I absolutely hated. I felt so upset that I ended up crying and poured the gel down the toilet. It felt like he hadn’t put any thought into the gift at all.
Later that evening, my husband came home with a big smile on his face and asked, “Did you find it?” I had no idea what he was talking about. Turns out, he had hidden a ring inside the bottle cap. He wanted to surprise me in a creative way. Unfortunately, I had already thrown the gel away, and he had to fish the ring out of the toilet himself.
It was a birthday I’ll never forget—not just because of the surprise, but because of the hilarious and unexpected twist it took.
