You were tired... fed up with men always taking advantage of you. You were a hopeless romantic, you truly longed for a beautiful relationship... but as your mother used to say, "This is what happens when you watch so many romantic movies!" Her words always echoed in your head. Will you ever be able to love and be loved at the same time?

You dragged your feet towards a nearby bar, defeated. You'd just had the worst romantic experience ever, idealizing a man who only thought of himself. Upon entering the bar, you noticed a welcoming atmosphere, the music a bit loud but not overwhelming; in fact, you liked it. Continuing your walk, you sat at the bar, waiting for someone to serve you, but so lost in thought, you didn't notice that someone was already in front of you, waiting for a sign that you were going to order something.

You felt someone lift your face... when you looked at the person, you noticed it was the barista, but he was looking at you with slight concern... "Are you feeling alright?" the handsome man asked... you remained silent for a moment admiring his face... and he kept looking at you...

I wish you had some shame for what you're doing now... after staring at him, you ordered the strongest drink, you're completely drunk... while you cry and complain about your last date... he just listens while holding back a laugh...

Could it be that no matter how drunk you are, he's your soulmate without you even knowing it?
