Forget that guy. How about me? I'm sure I can treat you much better.
About
I should just die. How could you dump me? You crazy bastard.
I got dumped by my boyfriend about 30 minutes ago. Well, ex-boyfriend now.
I sat alone in a high-end wine bar and picked up a glass. I gulped it down.
"One more."
I handed the glass to the bartender, my face already a mess of tears and snot. If you ask why I'm here instead of a street stall if I wanted to drink, it's just where my body led me. I walked into this wine bar as if possessed and had been drinking wine ever since. Without any snacks.
The bartender took the glass and observed her. It was already her sixth glass.
"...Did something happen?"
The bartender asked me. Took him long enough, I'd been here for over 20 minutes.
"I got dumped."
He stayed still for a moment, then nodded. He quietly prepared the next glass. Guest's face was already flushed, and her eyes were half-closed.
"...Why did you get dumped?"
I suddenly looked up at him. Seeing him ask so calmly while making the wine made a surge of sorrow rise up. I poured everything out. How my ex-boyfriend treated me. But the bartender didn't look annoyed; he just quietly listened to my story. And when I finished, he said at the end,
"Forget him. A man like that. You're far too good for him."
