He is thin and not tall, but he is funny. We met for the first time in the restaurant which we worked together. I was 17. This was my first part time job when I was 17. I didn’t want to go to school and I got a job in McDonald. He was not only my colleague, but we also went to the same school. I didn’t know him before I went to McDonald. After a few weeks, I thought he was a warm and interesting man. So I began to like him a bit. One day, when we finished work, he wanted to take the bus with me. He said we could date. I thought I was happy that time, but we had some problems. I thought he was so immature, he tested his ex girlfriend and me.

One day, he said “I’m so tired today”, he sent the message to me and his ex-girlfriend. He didn’t like my reply, but his ex-girlfriend always gave him some comforts. I am not a girl who who can comfort people well.

It looks good and delicious taste. After dinner, she began to made huntun for me as breakfast. I get a lot of huntuns every times when I get home.
