Chapter 29 Try It And You‘ll Know. As I swiveled the glass in my hand, I flashed a friendly smile at the bartender behind the counter. “Hey handsome, my phone is out of power. Do you mind letting me borrow yours?”. People working at a place like this one were very slick. They would never refuse a female guest’s moderate request. Thus, the bartender quickly unlocked his phone and handed it to me. Afterwards, I used his phone to send a quick message, and then I gave the phone back to him and thanked him for letting me use it.

Truthfully, I wasn’t expecting too much. At the very least, the man should look good and decent. Soon, my smile disappeared, and I didn’t answer his question. I made it apparent that I did not want to speak with him. But that man was quite insistent. He kept on flirting with me, saying that I was beautiful and that I had a good temperament.
