On a frosty night, a passerby accidentally saw a wallet lying on the road.
There were no documents inside, only a small change and a letter.
The paper was so worn, as if it had been read several times every day.
The letter was written back in 1944. And the man was so touched by the wedding story described in it that he decided to find the owner of the wallet.
This act became the main event in the lives of people who lost contact with each other 77 years ago.
The man who found the wallet did not open the letter immediately and only because he wanted to find the owner.
“Dear Michael! My mother forbade me to see you. Forgive me and know that I love you and will always love you. Yours, Anna,” read the short note said.
At the address on the envelope, the man found the phone number of the author of the letter.
But when he called, he found out that the woman sold the house 30 years ago and now lives in a nursing home.
With great difficulty, he managed to find out the address of this institution.
In the nursing home, the man found an elderly and very nice lady. It was Anna who wrote the letter to her friend. The woman told her side of the story.
In 1944, she was about to marry a certain Michael Goldstein. Parents opposed: Anna was only 16 years old.
She wrote him a letter and has never seen him since.
“If you find him, tell him that Anna still loves him and never got married,” the woman joked sadly, when the one who found her letter was about to leave.
After saying goodbye to the lady, the man went down to the first floor and, while waiting for a taxi, started a light conversation with the security guard of the establishment.
He showed him the wallet, and the guard said with surprise that he had seen exactly the same one at the guest of the house from the neighboring building.
Without wasting a minute, the man hurried to the next building.
On the list of guests, he found the name of Michael Goldstein!
The man gave him the letter and said that Anna was still waiting for him in the next building.
The meeting of Michael and Anna was remembered by all the guests of the establishment. Unable to utter a word, they stood opposite each other.
The next day, the elderly couple got married and left for their own home. They still had a lot to tell each other.
All their lives, two people loved each other and finally found their destiny. And all thanks to the man who accidentally found the wallet.
