Love but no more adds!
I love your circle round story but I can’t stay awake! Another thing is that you have got to take the adds off of the story! Plus whenever something exiting happens then there’s that break.🤨😓 That’s when I fall asleep. But overall it’s super good.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👱🏼♀️👱🏼♀️👌🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😇😇😇😇😇😇
