I was looking for a charity shop bargain but found something else – my high school boyfriend has a lot to answer for | The Sun

SHE'D been hunting for a bargain at her local charity shop.

But Kaylee Powell ended up finding something VERY different – a sweet memento she'd made her high school boyfriend 10 years ago.




Kaylee took to TikTok to share a video from inside the store, as she picked up the stained glass picture of two bunnies embracing.

"We were at our local Goodwill and walking past the shelf when we stumbled across this, which is a piece I made 10 years ago for my high school boyfriend," she began.

Turning it over, she revealed a pink background, adding: "You can see that he painted over my love letter but that’s where my signature was."

"I want to buy it, I want to see if I can fix it up and if I can unveil the love letter I wrote," she said.

Back at home, Kaylee began by applying a spray to try and get the paint off, before discovering that scraping it with a razor blade was more effective.

"Ladies and gentlemen I have cracked the code," she said excitedly after getting enough of the paint off to reveal the words beneath.

She then proceeded to read out the letter in all its glory, beginning: "I honestly can’t believe that it’s only been a couple of weeks.

"The memories we’ve made, the mornings we’ve shared and the love I’ve gained are priceless.
