My Mom Left Me in a Cardboard Box in the Supermarket When I Was a Baby — 20 Years Later She Asked For My Help
Sue was abandoned as a baby, left in a cardboard box in a supermarket. Luckily, a kind store clerk named Ruby took her in and raised her. Though grateful, Sue always wondered about her mother, who left her with just a note saying, “I will always love you, Sue.”
Years later, after becoming a successful video blogger, an unexpected knock on the door changes everything. Standing there is a frail woman claiming to be Sue’s mother, seeking help after years of absence. She explains she had to leave Sue behind to escape danger from people after her for a theft gone wrong.
Despite her mother’s pleas for forgiveness, Sue is cautious. She agrees to let her mother stay temporarily, but trust is fragile. Initially, things go well until Sue finds her mother trying to steal her jewelry to sell for money. Hurt and betrayed, Sue confronts her, and ultimately decides to ask her mother to leave.
Feeling a mix of sadness and relief, Sue turns to Ruby for comfort. Ruby reassures her that taking a chance on someone who loves her was brave. Yet, Sue worries she may have sent her mother back into danger.
