Kabanata I
She snatched a glass of vodka in the waiter that passed by and drank it all in one shot.
She lost count already on how many glass of alcoholic drinks she had ingested.
Not a bit of sign that she has ever been drank something so strong.
She walks confidently towards the stools and sat on one of those.
She put the empty glass on the table and looked at the bartender that in the middle of mixing drinks.
...
"Give me the strongest liquor you had, please,"
The guy looks at her for a second and raised his eyebrows at her.
...
"Are you perhaps a minor?"
...
"How did you even get here, child.."
...
"You should go home n--!"
She purposely slammed her ID at the table that stop the bartender from uttering another word.
He took the ID and inspect it for awhile before giving it back to her.
...
"I apologize for my rude behavior, Ma'am. Just wait for a moment,"
The guy even bowed before turning its back at her.
That's a million times now.
She slumped her head to the counter and close her eyes.
Everyone misunderstood her age.
She's in her mid 20s now or that's what that body supposed to be.
But that's not a thing she should worry about now.
She never imagine getting married.
Not only that, she never imagines having a child.. but now, she's here; trying to make herself pregnant like a slut.
Well, even a slut won't ask someone to get them pregnant. So she's worse than that.
What exactly happening to her life.
She felt an unfamiliarity presence sat beside her.
She can't see it, but he felt the stares that person gives.
And for some reason, she felt disgusted.
...
"Stop staring before you regret it."
...
What exactly am I gonna regret, Babe?"
...
"You can bleed your eyes out, you know,"
She took the drink the bartender put in front of her and drink it in one gulf.
She put down the empty glasses in the counter and ask for one more drink.
...
"Babe is a heavy drinker, huh? I'm surprise that you can drink this much,"
She took a glance at the guy and raised her eyebrow at him.
...
"Watch your mouth or that mouth of yours will bleed too,"
...
"That won't happen, Babe,"
A familiar man stop right infront of them.
He stares at her for a while before coming closer into the guy that's sitting by her side.
He gave it a clean punch and it fall to the ground.
Just what she said seconds ago.
The guy's mouth was bleeding.
Like she predicted what's going to happen.
But she never expected that that guy will also snatch her wrist and drag her out at that bar.
...
"Why are you still in this place, young lady,"
