In the clip that was shared by the user named Agustina, you can see a small matchbox, quite old but very well preserved, with a number written 70 years ago. The most impressive thing is the story behind that blurry digit that the elderly man shows.
The story has moved TikTok
According to the man's narration, he used the matchbox to light his cigarettes, however, he gave it a better use when he met the woman who conquered his heart and to whom he asked for her number without hesitation, getting her to write it down with the help of a pencil that he kept inside the box.
It is needless to say that 70 years ago there were no technological facilities to save a contact or meet people. The ingenuity of this old man worked for him to start his love story, as the same woman who wrote down his number later became his wife.
As expected, TikTok users who came across the sweet story did not hesitate to react with different opinions. "I will continue to believe in love," "How beautiful and it even has the pencil," "The last romantic," "True love at its best," were some of the most outstanding comments.
