But as Mariam cleaned it at home, she discovered something unexpected: an envelope hidden inside,
With trembling hands, Mariam opened the envelope to find $1,000 in cash and a note that read,
“You probably bought this stroller because you’re not experiencing the best times in your life.
Here’s a little help from me to you. If you don’t need it, you can always give it to someone who does.”
Despite her desperate financial situation, Mariam knew in her heart that she couldn’t keep the money.
