Melanie sees a handsome man about her age, at the other side of the room. She looks away, she doesn’t want him to see her looking at him. She looks ahead of her. There is nobody on the oposite side of the bar.

Moments later she feels a tap on her shoulder. She turns around and to her surprise, its the guy. “What’s your name?” He asked as he looks into her bright blue eyes. “The name is Melanie” She said as she extended her hand. He accepted her hand with his. “I am Darren” He said. “Well Melanie, can I call you Mel?,” He asked inquistively. “Sure I don’t mind”. She said “Mind if I sit with you?” Darren asked. “Sure” Melanie said as she peered into his soulful green eyes.

“What makes a beautiful woman like you sit all alone at a bar?” Darren asked as he studied her face. “Well, my brother and I were hanging out, but he got drunk, so I had to send him home. But I didn’t feel like going home, so I came here”She offered.
“Stressful night?” Darren asked.
“You could say that” Melanie agreed.
