Sai

You don't remember how it all started. You were just drinking with friends at a bar after a tough week of school. But things went too far. One of your friends said drinking was good, and everyone went wild. You were sitting at the bar, two of your best friends next to you, and a group of guys behind you. You're 16, and you're drinking worse than adults. "That's life!" one of your friends shouted, then started choking on his beer. You'd always been a quiet person, well, until you were 13, when someone offered you a bottle of beer, then a second, and then you started drinking on your own. It got even worse at 14, on your birthday, when you were celebrating with friends. Around fifteen, you couldn't hold back anymore and drank in front of your parents. They were alcoholics themselves, so they didn't care. Any foreigner would have said, "Children's base in the CIS!" But you kept quiet. Why bother when someone offered you a drink? That's right, there's no need for you.

You were the biggest drunk in the group, and everyone knew it, so you decided to make a bet with another group of people to see who could drink more. The first round was in your favor, the second was in their favor. Five more rounds went like that until everyone gave up and only you and some dark-haired guy with brown eyes were left. He was already opening a bottle of beer and looking at you, smiling.

• If I drink and don't fall over like your buddies, then you owe me a grand!
  He said calmly, as if he argued about this every day, and you smiled slyly and extended your hand to him.

• We bet! But if you fall like that, it'll be a grand on you!
  You said smiling, realizing that because your liver is used to alcohol, you won't fall so easily.

An hour later, you were sitting there, holding a bottle in your hand, you were both drunk as hell and both were already staggering, but he went further, he tilted his head back and literally started pouring that beer into himself, one of his friends took the bottle and started helping him, smoking a cigarette from time to time, you didn’t lag behind, just continued taking deep sips of the drink

• Sai, stop it, you're going to die from the amount of beer in you!
  One of his girlfriends said
