I wake up and start my day but feeling like I’m in a different world for some reason and now it’s time to make myself get ready for work. I walk around in slow motion and get ready just in time I open my car door and see another note. “ today is beautiful enjoy it” I smile knowing it has to be Tyler. I start the car and drive with a smile until I walk in and hear yelling. I look around and see some man on top of the bar singing and dancing. I have to laugh once I realize he’s just drunk. I walk around the bar and start my shift by helping the man down and making more drinks. I look at the clock and it’s on 8:00 and it’s slow. I hope the crowd gets here soon because I know I need the money. I get bored and start singing along to the song playing while I clean to keep myself busy. I’m the only bartender tonight so at least all the tips are mine. I hear the door open but don’t bother to look up until I hear “Sam. “I look up and bite my lip to keep the nerves down. “ can you make me a jack and coke please beautiful” I smile and start making his drink. I set it in front of him and winks and I feel like I’m on top of the moon. “ I have a question for you” I look nervous but try not to show it. “ what’s the question?” “ do you have a boyfriend?” I look and laugh because I’ve not even tried for one in so long I can’t remember the last time I did. “ no” simple answer was all he got. He shook his head like he was thinking and then came the next question,” why” I did not want to explain my sad life so I said no time . He smiled and walked off to the back of the bar where his aunt was at and started talking to her. The rest of the night nothing else was said from him and I kept working until closing time.
