Three very handsome men in the picture decided they were all my dates (one even declared himself thigh security 😭).
Truth? My real date was @liesllaurie the boys were just vibes and jokes♥️
Since then, time has passed and so have some beautiful souls captured in these memories.
We’ve lost Siphiwe Mkonza, Dr Mnandi
