“Dear PoPville,
to the guy wearing white and blue striped overalls with one of them unbuttoned…i kept looking at you bc you were so sexy and you and your two friends may have noticed. our friends kept accidentally going to all the same houses at porchfest and i decided i was gonna say something if i saw you at the next one at some point but then i didn’t see you again. it was tragic. you were very cute and i liked your style. i just have a feeling we would vibe. sincerely the girl wearing the black overalls with the light brown long sleeve and the sunglasses xoxo”
