ߒ” you acted like you didn’t like me but it made me really happy that Crystal told me that you actually do. I hope your next destination is better than this one. I’m glad to have met you.
I remember John from school. Since we sat in alphabetical order we were often close if we were in the same class. John was always nice and never had a bad word for anyone. RIP.
