aw well i really like it, the characters are pretty more mature than 16 years right?.. I mean, if Ash cried for being critizised for her origami's lack of colour at 12 years, and now she can have sucha deep thoughts, i think she has grown up a lot, but it happens, actually, its just the way it has to be. Taking in mind the circumstances that she lives among, its pretty natural that she's like this currently. Nice person. π
As for Meera, i feel bad for her, ouch. She's less anoying coz for some reason, when ppl grow up, others leave calling em annoying.. even if they turn to be the most annoying persons in world, do u get me? nvm. Well, but she's still the same, she didn't attempt to change her thirst to judge negatively, coz so far, she didnt say any compliment i think. She ain't bad at heart, coz she made a promise to Ash wid the best of intentions, but she cudnt keep it. But well, she was just 12! who says that promises that are made in such a tender age are meant to be kept.. always?
I liked this. π Do write more please.
