Mom just replied to my text! Can you believe it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cut it out, Gwen. Mom passed away, okay?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gwen trailed off as her father looked at her indignantly. Sighing, she went back to her room and slamming the door, she texted the number she thought was her mom&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mom, everything seems to be going wrong. I think I might go crazy without you. Please come back.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A few minutes later, she received a text from the other side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Look outside, it&#8217;s snowing. They say snowflakes are kisses from Heaven. Now quit being melancholic and get yourself warm. How about some waffle cones?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gwen almost jumped in excitement. If there was one thing in the world that she loved more than her mom, it was having waffle cones with ice cream.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I won&#8217;t have it unless you are here, though. I want you to bring me the waffle cones that you used to make.&#8221;, she texted, but got nothing more than silence as the answer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Miss Anderson?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gwen came back to her senses, owing to the nurse having shaken her continuously.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a package for you, Miss Anderson. It just arrived.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Me? I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;re mistaken. Who would&#8230;?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The nurse handed her a package and left the room. Gwen tore the wrapper as quickly as she could and what she saw was beyond magical.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, there were numerous waffle cones with ice cream and a short note:<\/p>\n<p><strong>I don&#8217;t know if it is as good as your Mom&#8217;s, but I tried. Consider it an apology gift for stealing all the texts that were meant for your mom.
