Once I was behind the safety of closed doors of my apartment; I let loose. I clutched my stomach tightly and laughed! I laughed so hard that I had to crawl to the couch and plant myself face first; then continue laughing!

The said man left a note which was rather disturbing. We had informed her to quickly call us if anything unusual happens. But we didn’t know that the said man was you. For that

By now,
