The DeMOn LoVeR

I thought it was well written but i didn't like it as a story. It wasn't exciting enough. Too ambiguos.

This story contains a lot of flashbacks and premonitions or red herrings.
In the beginning it tries to set a mysterious unknown ambience when describing the setting. The setting is full of memories of better days and is nostalgic. The house is unkept, giving us a dustier, older and scarier house than it would be in daylight and clean.

It never tells us what will happen. The only clue we have to something unknown is a mysterious letter that appears. It is new, untouched by dust and it speaks of long lost memories. These memories are awoken in a flashback where we are taken to a time when the narrator was younger and somewhat in love. Here her “soldier” reminds her what they have just accorded and tells her to not forget to do it. We still don’t know what they are talking about but with the title, and the description of his face we know something is wrong and unnatural.

The ambience becomes more and more tense as time passes and finally desperate the narrator leaves the house. Even though everything is calm, the nagging doubt tells us the end. The nagging doubt which is proven.

Tea Time my preetties

This story gives us a new view of society yet plays with a typical setting.

the typical setting is that rich people have all kinds of privileges and stuff yet they are not happy with what they have. Yet this setting only appears at the end. Throughout the story we see how this lady offers shelter and food but only as entertainment to herself. Her thoughts are superficial and not very interested in anything.

Her world becomes unbalanced as soon as her husband finds the street "urchin" beautiful..something apparently he hasn´t told her.

Human kind is defined by what satisfies it and and what it doesnt like. No matter what there is to life, it can only be filled with: love. She might have enough money to buy that little box but she wasn't beautiful enough in her husbands eyes. Her love wasn't true yet in the end that is what she really wants.

How predictable we all are...
