Friendships take time to form and become much harder to maintain as an adult. But for accidental friends 21-year-old Jamal Hinton and 64-year-old Wanda Dench, all it takes is one misspent text to mark the beginning of a beautiful and strong friendship. Back in November 16, 2016, then-17-year-old Hinton received a text message from an unknown number inviting him for a Thanksgiving dinner.
When Hinton asked who the sender was, the person replied ‘Your grandma’. Hinton then asked for a picture which the sender willingly obliged. As it turned out, the sender thought she was texting her grandson. Hinton then showed a picture of him to confirm that she had texted the wrong person. Along with the revelation, Hinton humorously asked if he can still get a plate. And the woman gladly and properly invited the random teenager to Thanksgiving dinner at her home.
