I have other stories in my drafts pero I just wanted to quickly right this one as I might be having a good time in the coming months if I play my cards right haha there's nothing juicy really on this post

Going to a bar solo is not new to me. I got used to going out alone na to avoid my self of the hassle on waiting for people to agree to my invitations. I go to the same bar and meet acquaintances and people na nakilala ko lang din while intoxicated. I'm not a heavy drinker din ngayon. Two bottles of mule and some red cup patubos get me through the night, I prefer dancing sober na as I get the chance to scout potential people din.

Cue in the "awakener". She came in with a friend. She's wearing this orange halter-neck dress that accentuates her slender body. Her friend was also a head turner as she boasted a good future ahead of her.

Why call her the "awakener"? She was the reason your boy right here woke up learning about carnal desires. Quick backstory: elementary days, we're classmates, nap time, she turned to me and showed me a GIF or vid of skeletons doing sex motions. Syempre kasi bata pa puro pa "eww", pero since then I've been very curious and it lead to my experiences right now.

Anyway, so we're dancing near each other pero I can't approach her. I don't know how to strike up a conversation. Baka mapahiya lang ako, I am introducing myself out of nowhere and saying that we were classmates before. Pero lo and behold, as we got intoxicated and swayed with the crowd, we locked eyes for a brief moment, and nagulat ako she was the one to talk first.

"you're _____ right?"

Napatawa nalang ako and nodded at her.

"and you're _____ diba" I said.

I wasn't expecting na she would remember me, even my name! I don't know what reminded her of me pero that was such a nice feeling. Then we continued to dance the night away. We chatted and danced along with a rowdy crowd. Kinwento rin niya sa friend niya na we're classmates and we haven't seen each other since Grade 4.

After a few hours, we decided to leave. I offered to walk them to her car and she was okay with it. While walking kinwento ko about dun sa backstory namin. Na that's how I remember her --- my "awakened". Ang lakas ng tawa nila. Her friend said that she's always been the naughty type, and I agree hahahaha

When we got to where they parked, we just then exchanged pleasantries and also with her friend. We all agreed to ping each other up if gusto namin gumala during weekends since I always go solo and it's just the two of them.

Finally, after a few nights spending solo in a corner sa bar I had a chance encounter. Sana may susunod pa :>
