    1. I enjoyed how flexible the character is with her studies, you made them seem strong and determined.
    3. I feel like you should switch the part where it says her boyfriend asked and put an actual dialogue of how he felt
    4. You should add a small convo where they are talking to their collegue

    I liked the story plotting.
    In the dialogue there was suggestions that I liked.
    I think maybe you could add one or two more dialogues.
    In the end of the story maybe a little more detail about her parents can be added.

    1. The character’s background and what she was about overall was pretty good, that was very enjoyable.

    2. The dialogue was short and simple, it didn’t have to be overlapped with unneeded words.

    3 &4. Including more dialogue in the beginning and ending of the story to shape the characters thoughts and feelings would’ve helped much more, otherwise solid story.
