In 2018, 12-year-old Aislinn Bowermaster brought in homemade holiday treats for her classmates at East Clinton Middle School in Leescreek, Ohio.
It was Valentine’s Day, and that’s just the kind of considerate and thoughtful gesture Aislinn is known for.
However, Aislinn was gutted when she never received anything in return from any of her peers.
Later that day, she was visibly upset on the bus ride home. Instead of comforting her, a classmate bullied Aislinn over the fact she didn’t have a Valentine.
Aislinn arrived home in tears and told her mom, Kristin, that she never wanted to go to school on Valentine’s Day ever again.
Kristin’s heart broke for her daughter. She called her best friend Abby for support and told her what had happened.
That night, Abby told the story to her 15-year-old stepson, Isaiah. He and Aislinn have been friends for years.
Isaiah said he was willing to do anything to make her smile and the high school sophomore decided to pay a little visit to Aislinn’s middle school during lunchtime.
In the heartwarming clip below, Isaiah tracks down Aislinn in the cafeteria to surprise her with flowers, chocolate, a giant teddy bear, and a handwritten card — in front of the entire school.
“Happy Valentine’s Day,” the card read. “Always remember how pretty you are.”
Two days after Aislinn cried tears of sorrow at school, she was crying again… only these were tears of happiness and gratitude.
