Clubs, bars, hangouts. Great places to relax and forget about your problems for a while. Find a one-night stand or find your destiny. Max was the one who always hung out at these places, with friends, of course. Because it just didn't feel right being alone. Nelya, on the other hand, didn't like all that noisy crap and preferred hanging out at home or going to someone's house.

Maxim received a message from his friend Ilya.

"Ku, are you going to the bar?"

It didn't take long for a response, and Max readily agreed, writing:

"Fuck, yeah, sure, what time are we meeting?"

Having arranged to meet around 7:20 PM, Max messaged a couple more of their mutual friends—the more people, the merrier. As the appointed time approached, Shabanov dressed up a bit and "ran" to the meeting place. Once everyone was assembled, the group stumbled into the bar and sat down at the counter. After drinking several beers, Max noticed a girl sitting nearby, drinking a cocktail.

From Nelya's perspective, it went something like this: a group of her friends were desperately looking for partners for the sweet life and periodically dragged Nelya along with them so she wouldn't get bored at home. Today was one of those days. The girl was scrolling through social media when she received a message from her friend Ksyusha.

"Hey, we're going to a bar today, are you coming with us?"

It wasn't a question at all; Nelya was simply presented with a fait accompli. She smiled and answered.

"Thanks for asking, I guess the answer is yes."

They set a meeting place and time. They were planning to arrive around 7:00 PM. On their way to the bar, the girls gossiped about all sorts of topics, their conversation quickly flowing from one topic to another. Without noticing how time had flown, the girlfriends entered the bar. Sitting down at the bar, Nelya ordered a fancy cocktail and sipped it, savoring the taste. The alcohol didn't hit her right away, but it didn't need to. She watched her friends as they searched for "victims," ​​her mind on the next day's activities. Next to her sat an extremely active and loud man. Well, not a man, maybe a year or two older.

(Who do you want to be?)
