the orange peel theory. the theory says that if you ask someone to peel an orange for you, their reaction can show how much they care. and it's never really about the orange at all. it's about the small things people are willing to do for you without making it feel hard to ask. because love is often found in the little things. the simple acts of kindness. the willingness to help even when it seems small. when someone cares about you, they don't always show it through big gestures. sometimes, they just peel the orange, hand it to you, and make your day a little easier.
