How I wish you knew the loving husband that you denied the privilege to feel the love and warmth of a beautiful wife. I wonder why you didn't delay her and make her miss her appointment on the flight that will make her fragile heart take flight. You fed her to the wolves of a reckless driver who knew not how privileged he was to have royalty in his bus. He toyed with you
