Last week I bought a new Cup and Saucer set for our kitchen. When it arrived, my mom unpacked it, had a look at it for a couple of minutes and then packed it back only to keep it locked in the shelf. I frowned and said, “Ma! Why don’t you just use it? Come on, let’s have some coffee”. She stopped me saying, “No, let’s use them when relatives come home”.
In Suits, one of the most popular series in Netflix, Alex, who is a Senior Partner in a law firm, brings his 15-year old daughter Joy to office
