The woman was not at home but accessed her doorbell remotely. When she found out that he had her handbag, she was so happy she got emotional all over again.
The firefighter told her that he was going to wait to return her handbag the next day but he remembered how once his ex had lost her handbag after a night out and decided to do it immediately.
His consideration and kindness was astounding to the woman who kept offering to give him some money as a way of saying thank you.
