Go to a public place or local spot. Observe other people’s behavior, especially odd or intriguing acts. Create a character and put them in this place. Give them two traits: a behavior you observed and a negative trait about yourself. Now, write 300-600 words describing the character in the context of the place without writing anything directly about the character. In fact, write as if the character is not even present at the place during the time you’re writing it. Try to allow the reader to discover both of the character’s traits indirectly. This assignment is about implication, about leading the reader to see the character without directly describing him/her. For example, you might describe a handbag left behind, the contents of which show your character's preferences and avoidances, longings and dislikes.

She was surrounded by guys, next to her was Rose. Her older sister. It is very interesting how all the guys are intended to have a good impression. One tries to make her laugh; another offers food and drinks. The result is always the same, all those who go near by are rejected. The night was a cold and windy, enough to need a jacket but comfortable to be near by the grilling. All the friends were reunited because it was Doug birthday. The workplace, childhood friends, high school, and college and finally but not least the girlfriend of Doug and her sister. That being honest they were all center of attention. The night was early, and all the friends were eager to see each other. There was a grill master and a big table full of things to eat, a few coolers down the table. Most people were standing, except for her, obviously.
In the chair she was sitting, she covers it with a coat. A stuffed and white color coat and very expensive coat. I think we all have known a girl like this. I do not feel to describe her, because we all have dreamed with her or when you saw her at the mall. Your eyes betray you and start looking at her without a hesitation. It is one of those girls that at middle school you got the balls to go and invite her to ice cream and she did not even look you back. The good trait, well, you imagine her, right?
Rose explains to Susan, where she met her boyfriend. Explain that Susan rolls her eyes up is just not enough. Rose was habitual to these types of attitudes.
