A Malaysian university student who thought she had received a parking summons was pleasantly surprised after discovering that it was actually a sweet congratulatory note from a stranger.
The student, known as @fnieyyy on Threads, shared that she had stopped by restaurant for a meal as a small self-reward after making it onto the Dean’s List.
Thought it was a parking summons
However, when she returned to her parked car, she noticed a piece of paper tucked under her windshield and immediately assumed the worst.
To her surprise, the paper was not a summons, but a handwritten note from a kind stranger congratulating her on her academic achievement.
Oh my God, how cute! Earlier, I stopped by a shop for a self reward meal.
“When I came out of the shop, I thought it was a summons letter. I didn’t expect someone had written this instead. Thank you, stranger! May every traffic light always turn green for you,” she wrote.
