Now imagine how fucking sad it would be if he had accidentally put a blank paper in there, thrown out the heartwarming and touching letter he’d written to his kid with all the feelings he never could express otherwise and died thinking his kid would at least find some comfort in those words.
I did this before. I was about to die and then accidentally put an empty letter paper into an envelope and thought the letter I did write to my daughter was my scratch paper… so I threw it away. I later passed but through a stroke of luck my daughter found my letter in the trash and was still able to read it. so I can rest easy now knowing that.
Yeah, if I were in her shoes, it would be impossible not to imagine my dad chuckling to himself as he slipped his mortal bonds, smug with satisfaction at having pulled the longest, pettiest prank possible on your kid. That piece of paper would be a treasure.

It was actually a hidden message and she had to hold it under warmth to read it, never knew and threw it away.
I have a feeling that the blank paper hit harder. It seems like that gag perfectly encapsulated her dad’s sense of humor and their relationship.
