Yesterday morning, while sorting laundry by the window, I noticed something that made my heart skip a beat. At first, I thought it was just a bit of lint or maybe dried detergent stuck to the fabric. But when I turned the shirt toward the light… I felt a wave of unease.
“Could it be insect eggs? A larval cluster?” I wondered, leaning in with hesitation. As I examined it more closely, my pulse quickened—right there, scattered across the fabric, were dozens of tiny, round eggs. My mind instantly jumped to worst-case scenarios: an infestation? Fabric-eating pests?
But as I took a closer look, something about them felt oddly intentional. Their placement, the shape, even the faint greenish tone—it all seemed too delicate for destruction.
That’s when it hit me. These weren’t moth eggs or signs of a pest problem.
They were butterfly eggs, somehow laid right there on my clothes—an unexpected reminder of nature’s quiet persistence in the strangest places.
