Miss your smile. I miss eating sushi together. Most of all I miss talking with you. It was always comforting and real. Then. Things unraveled. If you still think of me and our friendship, please say hello. I don’t have your number. And I’m not on Facebook. — Your taxi at Sears Jan. 10, 2017
Bus on South st — m4w
I saw you again this morning, you were driving a larger bus so it was hard to actually catch eyes. Seems like this could be a daily thing! I passed you in rt 7 in Lenox and saw how pretty you looked driving that half bus so I made sure to stay near you. Then on South street we drove along side each other and you went to North st and I went to east and we exchanged big smiles as we turned:). Hope you see this! Jan. 9, 2017
