That was SO good! :) I agree with all her comparisons and I really loved the part about the fingerprints, I probably have a bunch on my teacup. XD And all the different beverages meaning different things was cute. Oh and when you described what she meant by 'fancy' it made me laugh and then agree. It made me sad though that the boy told her the opposite of how he really felt, hopefully he will learn English and tell her. XD I really loved how you described everything and it did make sense, alot of sense and I really loved it. Amazing. :)
Firstly, the layout image is beautiful When I saw that, I just knew I would love this piece, mind you you're one of my favourite authors so I'd love it regardless.
I absolutely adore the backstory to this, and the metaphors about the cups. It's spot on - I never enjoy coffee if it's in a crappy cup, I always have to drink out of my camp rock mug (it's cause I'm cool) and that's what this story reminded me of in my own weird way - you don't enjoy something as much if it's not in something you're comfortable with.
And when you’re a set, you put tea in your cup. Is that what the cool kids are calling it these days?
I absolutely adore the way you wrote this, it was so honest and from the heart, you didn't have to use fancy words or complicated sentence structures to get your point across. Plus the parts where you talk to the reader are amazing and really pulled me in.
I agree with the person above me. That was simply just amazing, you could tell that it had so much thought put into it. The description was stunning and I loved the meaning behind it. The end had to be my favorite, how he sugar-coated the truth and how he really loved her. This has to be one of my new favorite one shots.
This is just amazing. It's my new favourite one shot. All the comparisons work so well, and I love the whole teacup analysis. It seems like such nonsense, but has so much meaning. I can't really think of ANYTHING bad to say.
