Never been kissed before, Xue struggles in a city that never sleeps. A barista by day, a Chinese herbal tea brewer by night, she works her ass off every day to support her borrowed family. All she has ever wanted was to stay beside her best friend since childhood, but now he's gone.
If only the tea she brews can make her forgetful for once and for all. Letting go of someone ain't easy. No one told her that hiding her true feelings could be just as hard. Drowning in ambivalence, Xue needs to make a choice that will change the rest of her life.

The Diner has seen its fair share of the people of Midland, New York. There's Andrea, who doesn't quite know why she keeps coming back, save for the fact that it's the only place she doesn't feel constantly watched. There's Gregory, who people-watches, filling everyone around him with stories instead of filling himself with food. There's Milo, who often zones out as he waits on his patrons, dreaming of the day he can finally escape. And there's Monique, who simply likes the pancakes (and her waiter) a little too much.

This collection will contain longer poems with no set theme. Short stories. Philosophical statements/discussion. General musings. All of my individual madness.
