“In the end I didn’t want to see any other place, even though it was far and over my budget, I just wanted to come back everyday to that place and talk to that girl!
“And I definitely made the right decision, because I ended up living with one of the most amazing people I have ever met! Everyday I would get home and she would be there, eating junk food, bothering Reece (her favourite sport), watching the same movie for the 10th time and then she would stop everything for a second and look at me with that smile, she always had that smile, the one that makes you feel like everything is OK. She was always so happy and full of life that it was contagious, you couldn’t feel bad around.
“ I will always carry you in my heart, my sweetest girl!”
