The last tea

It is a short story in which a young man and a girl meet in a tea room for a cup of tea. They have been friends for some time, but now something has happened to change things between them. The woman has been secretly “in love” with him but he doesn’t seem to notice this. What’s more, he spends the entire time talking about a woman he has just met. She feels so angry at this that she invents that different men have a crush on her. It doesn’t work. He leaves the tea room saying that he has a date with her in a couple of hours.
I chose this short story because I found it very interesting, very well written and at certain moments funny. I found interesting the way in which these two people spend time talking about such an important suject as love is, when none of them feel it. He has only a crush on the girl he met whereas she is only interested in him because he is not interested in her.
