HOW AM I THE WORST STORYTELLER HERE?
I want to submit this for evidence A in clearing my name
PS I already knew about the dating (take that, losers!)
But
What do you mean he’s missing???
Jaime
Sergio has a point, for once in his life

I hate you
Jaime
Anyway, back to the important thing here, congrats on dating, but

Jaime
