The Love Story of

How Haryi met Dorsy

& they became a couple?

But he could not tell Dorsy that

He was surely sad about it

CT Haryi Loves Dorson

Not for Me, I

guess ..??

Try EdamiWhy

should I waste my

own chance?

Killed but not fully

He goes to basics

Yipee…he loves me !

Love is surely on the cards

And then they meet face to face

And live happily there after
