A video of an act of kindness at Hartford Hospital is going viral on TikTok.
Liliana Vera and Evan Jekubovich, seniors at Southington High School, spent a date night in April making other people’s day.
“I saw a TikTok that was like similar, and we had nothing to do, and I really wanted to do it as our four-month anniversary date,” Vera said. “We went to Target to get some notes, pens, and a bunch of flowers.”
The teens drove over to Hartford Hospital, where they left flowers and notes with uplifting messages written on them, on the windshields of vehicles.
“[They said] one step at a time, get better, you’ll get through this,” Vera and Jekubovich recounted.
