Thanks for the feedback Hylas!

I know the story was sad but I wanted to do something different because everyone was all like "I'm gonna do a car!" or "I'm gonna do a bird!" - a bit boring, IMO.

Also, I couldn't help but laugh when I read your questions because I know this story isn't logical in any way, hehe. I wrote this rather quickly because we only had 1 day to do so (it was due the next day) so I just wrote it without working it out too much. All I knew was that I wanted the story to be sort of "mysterious" where the reader doesn't exactly know if the main character is real or something. So yes, the main character (the teardrop) shouldn't have the memories. But I suppose, for logic's sake, you can say the memories are imaginary or they belonged to the crying face...part of the emotional journey, I guess.

If I had to rewrite this, I would alter the beginning.

Thanks again for commenting.
