Why this Puffy

I picked it because I wanted something small in gesture but big in meaning. I didn’t overdo it — I just wanted them to find it at the station and smile.

Waiting with a tote

I carried the Puffy in a tote bag, between a book and a jacket. You could see the shape, but that didn't bother me: I wanted a simple surprise, not a show.

When they appeared on the platform, I crossed my fingers, moved closer, and calmly pulled the bag out. They stared at me; I was smiling inside.

Small gestures, big impact

There wasn't a big speech. I handed them the Puffy, they looked at it and hugged it right away. It was soft, smelled fresh, and that was enough.

• Before I bought it thinking of an ordinary afternoon.
• Arrival They waited seated; I pulled out the bag without warning.
• Reaction They laughed, hugged it, and looked at me with tenderness.
• After We walked slowly together, talking about nothing.

That night on the couch it stayed with us under the blankets. No need for many words.

What stayed with me

That gifts don't need to be big to show affection. Sometimes a plush and the right moment say what you don't dare to say.
