If I could save you in a bottle, the first thing that I’d do is save every day until eternity passes away, just to spend them with you. If I could make days last forever, if words could make wishes come true, I’d save every day like a treasure and then again I would spend them with you. We’ll miss you forever Fugowee Guide.
