Hi,
My motive write this letter to give know you something. I want to CUT CONNECTION us. I saw u PLAY WOOD THREE in front my eyes. So, I break connection to PULL MY BODY from this love. I have think about this very COOK-COOK. I know I CLAP one HAND only. I don’t trust you again! You are really CROCDILE LAND! I don’t want u to PLAY-PLAY with my LIVER. I have been crying until no more eye water. I don want BANANA TO FRUIT 2 TIMES. SAFE WALK!
The true,
Timah
