Young boy thought he would never see the girl he loved again, but the truth is eye-opening

A 14-year-old girl worked in her parents' candy store.

One day, a 12-year-old boy and his father came in to buy a newspaper. The 12-year-old boy instantly fell in love.

Everyday, for more than two years, without ever missing a day, the young boy came into the candy store and bought a Hershey bar. Each one had a small, barely noticeable sticker with the name of the store on it.

The boy was so shy that it was hard for him to even speak when he was near her. But one day, after more than two years of buying Hershey bars everyday, the girl he was in love with was gone. He continued to go in for a few weeks but it became obvious to him that she was no longer working there.

The young boy was devastated. He could think of nothing but this beautiful girl. Yet with time, his sadness diminished and he moved on. He grew up, graduated high school and went to college out of state.

One day, while walking on campus, he noticed a student on a bench crying. He put his books down on the bench, sat down next to her and tried to make her feel better, but she was very upset. She wouldn't tell him details but she made it very clear that she thought the guy she was dating loved her and today somehow she found that wasn't true.

As the young boy left to go to class, he left his notebook on the bench. The young woman, still crying, opened his loose-leaf history notebook so she could get his name and maybe a class schedule so she could return it to him. She found no name or class schedule, and there was not one note written about any school subject.

What she did find were seven hundred and sixty-three Hershey wrappers, with love letters written on the back of each one. Each Hershey wrapper had the small sticker with the name and address of her parents' candy store, the same store she worked in as a young girl. The love letters were all written to her!

She continued to cry, even harder now, but they were clearly different tears altogether.

This story is being told today, by another 14-year-old girl who works in the same candy store. She is telling her customers the story of how her grandparents met about 60 years ago.
