"Sometimes we believe it's better when we're alone."

Name of Story:
Cigarette Smoke.

Author: lostreader.


Genres: Angst, Drabble.

Characters: Narrator.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5. I don't read drabbles very often, but I really enjoyed this one!

Review + Notes:
Cigarette Smoke was a drabble about, well, smoking. I've got a lot of family that smoke, so it was an interesting read! It was short, but it gave good details. I've got a couple notes for a few parts, so let's get to that!

"...just until I finish my own cigarette." - I felt the beginning was in past tense, so this part was kind of out of place for me(?). You could replace "finish" with "had finished" and I feel it would fit the tense form a lot better. If this isn't the case, I would change the verb tense at the beginning to fit the tense you're using for the rest of the story! ^^
"I could finally enjoy peacefully," - There should be an it after the word enjoy, because the narrator could enjoy WHAT now? (:
"going on my nerves" - It should it getting instead of going.
"I broth cigarette to my lips and leaned at the cold wall" - Broth isn't the word I think you're trying to use since broth means a soup based of stock or a liquid bacteria grows in. The word I think you wanted was brought. Also, at should be against. At doesn't work in that part of the sentence, but against would. ~
"in the tick air of the night" - I'm going to assume you we're trying to spell thick! ^^
""rain was just perfect" - THE rain was just perfect.
"Feeling I had waited for" - THE feeling I had waited for. 
"few more smokes" - A few more smokes.
"The final feel I waited for" - Sounds like something a fangirl would say on Tumblr, haha! It should be "feeling I had waited for" rather than what you had put.
"for who knows what time, how slowly it would disappear" - "what time" should be replaced with "how long" as well as placing the word "at" before how.
"Sigh escaped my lips and I put hood on my head." - A sigh excaped my lips, and I put my hood on my head.

Overall, I absolutely loved this drabble. It wasn't a novel but it wasn't something my five year old self would call a story, haha. (x You don't have to take my notes and use them, it's just my brain and what sounds right to me. I really loved it, though. I just cannot with your details - - I could feel the rain. I could see the smoke in the air. It was grand!~ I hope to get to read more of your works, please feel free to come get me to review anything you write! I would love to. ♥

Oh wow. 4.5 of 5... wow.
Okay, now - thank you for pointing out mistakes, since (as you can see) I'm not very good with putting 'a' and 'the' on the start of the sentences, since English is not my first language. So thank you for that.
Second - lol at the feels from tumblr! :'D I'm gonna change that right now,(and everything else) because I can't stop laughing, really x'D
Thanks for the fast review and I'm going to credit you now! ^_^
