Elizabeth looks at the cupboard, and the cupboard, without her touching it, opens. It was containing dishes and cutlery of all sorts, but out of them, only teacup carefully floated and lands on a table next to her, followed by he tea spoon. Cupboard closed, and she looked away from it, focusing her attention on the teapot. And, as expected by now, it also flew towards her, and slowly poured its contents into the cup, before floating back to its original position.

Elizabeth was unsure of when she "awakened" her "gift". Maybe she had it since childhood and just never noticed, and thus it never developed properly, or maybe only recently, when her phone flew into her face during one morning, but either way, now she could use her mind for telekinesis. Now she didn't had to get up from her seat to brew tea, which was cool, even if impractical.
